Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 5/21-5/27

It feels like summer is fast approaching and apparently my body is not completely ready for it. Such a shame because there are some great festivals coming up including Bonnaroo, X-Fest, and SPF 94/9. For now, I’m hiding in the shade and planning on emerging at night. No, I’m not a vampire.

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 1/30-2/5

It’s another day in paradise. The sun is out, it’s warm but not hot, and the birds are making their own chirpy music. Yep, it’s a hard life here in San Diego. After all my outings this past month, I’m taking it easy this week. I found out I’m not 21 anymore and able to be out every night and fully functional the next day. This old girl needs some R&R but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go out this week. We have some great shows including; Atomic Tom at Lestats, The Burning of Rome at Soda Bar, The New Kinetics at Tin Can Alehouse, and Martin Sexton at The Belly Up. Get out there!

Amanda’s SD Show Calendar 9/26-10/2

What a weekend! While I did nothing really musically oriented, I definitely was wiped out by the end of it. What was I doing? Funny you should ask. I was working at a rodeo. I used to ride in said rodeo but this time I was just a helping hand. I did get some boogie time with some country music but boy, I’m still tired. Oh, I did see the Blue Man Group for the first time last night! That’s musical. And definitely fun!

But enough about me…

Buckcherry in SD

Tonight, I venture down to San Diego for my very first dose of Buckcherry. They play downtown at 4th and B. I’m not incredibly well versed in the Buckcherry catalogue, but I’ve been listening all day and have my concert boots on! May the traffic gods be with us…’cause I know once we get down there, it’s gonna ROCK!
