I went to my very first country music show this weekend. For being a girl with a horse who enjoys country music, you would think I’ve gone to a country show before but I haven’t. It was an interesting experience full of posers, wasted people, head bopping, and good tunes. I would do it again, especially now that I know what I’m in for. This week is kind of quiet music wise. Probably due to the holiday and Comic Con next week.

It’s been more than a littel hot down here in San Diego this past week. We San Diegans are very spoiled here and aren’t ashamed to admit it. I’m thankful for central air conditioning and naps. But that’s just me. Thankfully it was cool enough for me to make it out to Del Mar and have some fun at the San Diego County Fair. I saw Charles Esten and Lennon and Maisy Stella and it was a really good time! It was like a little bit of Nashville  came to San Diego and it was quite fun!

p.s. I woke up this morning with what seems to be a stomach bug which makes it hard to be fully coherent. As such, some events might be missing from this calendar and for that, I apologize.

I’m home! And I brought a cold with me… It was probably from all the airline travel. Or maybe the drastic weather changes from drizzly SF to super hot Vegas. Or maybe my body just won’t let me have nice things without consequences. Haha. Either way, the first half of my Neon Trees vacation was an absolute blast with an unexpected show at the YouTube space in LA for What’s Trending. They brought in bits from CBGB including the bar, the walls, and the awning and that was the set for the performance. If you want to see the performance, it’s here.

I’ll post more about my trip later but let’s get back to the San Diego scene…

By the time you fine folks are reading this, I will already be in San Francisco! It’s magic! Actually, it’s the magic of scheduled posts. I am beginning the first half of my summer vacation aka: following a band around. The band in question is Neon Trees because I just can’t quit them. They were my band last year and they were so much fun, I had to do it again. But there will still be plenty of awesome stuff to do here in San Diego whilst I’m away. In fact, it’s a jam packed week!

I somehow messed up my sleep system and it’s been harder and harder to wake up at 8am and get to sleep before 2am. There’s also some afternoon napping happening as well. I’m blaming my day at California Adventure on Friday. I mean, I was kind of slipping in this direction but now I’m here. Time to rest the body clock. Ugh.

Not so “ugh” is the calendar for this week. Lots of options to keep your live music cravings satisfied. Go see bands.
