Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 6/27-7/3

I am currently in Chicago where I’ve added the Bottom Lounge to the list of venues I’ve been too (thanks to The Wrecks), but the real highlight of my week was attending my first Milwaukee Summerfest. Not only did I get to see a few faves (Andrew McMahon got me tear-y eyed), but I got in a slew of rock bands I’m not sure I’d have taken the opportunity to see anywhere else (Quiet Riot, Warrant, Skid Row, The Breeders, Violent Femmes). Milwaukee certainly lived up to the “MilROCKee” t-shirts they were selling.

Assuming I survive this travel apocalypse everyone is talking about, I’ll be back in LA next week in time to see Tony Lucca at the Hotel Cafe!
