Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 11/27-12/3
This time of year can be hard and it doesn’t help that the show calendar is lighter. Last week felt so off until Friday night at The Roxy where I went to see We Are Scientists and suddenly the world clicked back into place. These New York rockers blasted through their set of songs celebrating their most recent album, but not discounting their older hits. The band was a massive uplift bringing humor, heart, and reasonably priced merch items to brighten the day.
Rolling into next week, we shall continue the uplifting rock vibes with Mondo Cozmo, Beauty School Dropout, Baby Queen and more…
