Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 10/24-10/30

Since I am no longer pouring over journal articles every day, I’m upping my dosage of reading for pleasure.  This past week I revisited an old friend of mine, Anne Shirley of Green Gables.  I hadn’t read any L.M. Montgomery since I was a child and it occurs to me now how influential the notions in these books might have been to my young mind.  The necessity of kindred spirits, the value of a vivid and sustaining internal world, an appreciation for the smaller pleasures, and putting a premium on intelligence over external beauty are all lessons from Anne of Green Gables that one might argue are key components of my personality today.

On the docket for next week is a little Douglas Adams.  I was lucky enough to attend a screening and panel for the new HBO show, Dirks Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency (loosely based on a couple of Adams’ books) last week.  The tease of the first episode got me craving the beautifully random insanity often associated with a Douglas Adams novel.

Music-wise, I’m pleased to report I made a fair number of shows last week and my “current faves” playlist has expanded with new music from Badflower, Young Rising Sons, and Night Riots. Next week I hope to add new Reeve Carney music to the list after seeing him play Monday night at Molly Malone’s. This is a particularly meaningful show for me as many of my fondest early memories of living in Los Angeles revolve around seeing Reeve at Molly Malone’s.

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 10/17-10/23

I spent the vast majority of my weekend in a movie theater since they’ve rereleased the Harry Potter films in IMAX theaters all over. They started showing the movies on Thursday and it ends on Thursday but Saturday and Sunday provided a perfect opportunity to binge watch Harry Potter from the beginning on the big screen. My only regret is a few things I ate. But, the Barnes & Noble next to the theater became the Three Broomsticks and offered drinks like Polyjuice Potion, Butterbeer, and Wolfsbane Potion. Smart marketing as I tried two out of three.

We have some really cool shows this week to look out for. Here are my suggestions.

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 10/17-10/23

The microwave in the house stopped working last night (crackles, smoke, danger, danger). I stood in the middle of my Ralph’s today completely perplexed as to how to shop for the week while remaining within my budget.  I guess I will be eating lots of peanut butter, granola, and crackers with cheese.  Yay.

On the brighter side, this week’s concert calendar pretty much reads like my current “favorites” playlist. Badflower, Young Rising Sons, Dreamers, and The Hunna all have shows in LA this week. I really hope I can make it out to see a few of them. You should too!

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 10/10-10/16

This week’s calendar has taken more time than usual to put together due to the two dogs I’m currently minding. There is apparently no place to sit down other than my lap which makes typing a bit more laborious.  I’ve had a largely enjoyable week in Maryland spending some time with good friends, enjoying daily doses of tea, reading, and dog-walking, and re-learning a few songs on the guitar.

I do look forward to returning home next week, hopefully just in time for the weather to cool down.

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 10/3-10/9

Well, I’m en route home from watching James Bay and Joseph absolutely slay New York and Boston. I mean, just a brilliant show that has been very satisfying to watch on a much larger scale. If you haven’t seen either artist live, I highly recommend it. James Bay somehow manages to exceed my expectations every time and Joseph are just breathtaking with their music. I mean, I’ll stop talking about it but I don’t really want to. Just do yourself a favor and listen if you haven’t already.

Although I’ve throughly everything about my vacation, I’m happy to get back to San Diego. I’ve missed my horse, my dog, my drum lessons, and working out. Guess I’m a creature of habit. But I will miss eating like an absolute pig on this entire trip. #sorrynotsorry

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 10/3-10/9

Today, two of the most wonderful people that I met in grad school are getting married in the Washington DC area and I am in town for the festivities. After the wedding, I’ll be staying in rural Maryland, house and dog sitting. I’ll have two Dachshunds and a Great Dane as my chargers. I’m hoping to take some time for long reflective walks, but I’m not sure how many days I’ll be able to stay sane without live music. Fortunately, Irontom will be in DC at the end of the week. I very much look forward to seeing them in a new city.

If I were in LA, there are quite a few shows I’d be looking forward to, the Assemble the Skyline reunion and Coffee Shop Arena Rock night at The Hotel Cafe being at the top of my list.

Here’s what else I’d recommend:
