Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 6/20-6/26

If you’ve been in SoCal these last few days, you’re well aware of how terrible this heat is, has been, and will continue to be. Although I managed to escape it fairly quickly yesterday, I’m not sure I can be as successful today. Thankfully, naps help a lot.

If you need a break from the heat, I suggest heading to the fair because it’s on the coast and is therefore much cooler. If that doesn’t strike your fancy, just be sure to find cover at a venue with some kind of flowing air. Or take an ice bath. Whatever works for you.

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 6/20-6/26

I spent a very large part of my weekend outdoors and if you’re in Southern California, you might imagine how I feel right now…I’m not sure I can move from the floor of my non air-conditioned room.

In way cooler news, I hope everyone has checked their Ticketmaster accounts to find it full of free ticket vouchers. I’ve got quite a few but of course the shows I really wanted to use them for are ineligible. Hopefully this will change at some point.

In the meantime, I’ll stick to the shows I can get into. If you’re looking for a great free show with rising LA bands, I’d recommend Tuesday night at Harvard & Stone to see Gold Star with The Americans.

I’m about to do something which I rarely do and that’s get in my car and drive somewhere on a Sunday, a day I usually reserve for mentally and physically preparing for the upcoming week. This whole week has been a bit off kilter (in a good way) so I suppose it’s only fitting.

Next week, I have some big work deadlines I’m dealing with, but I hope to get out to a few choice shows.  I’m especially looking forward to seeing Dark Waves on Tuesday. Show pick of the week, however, will have to be Friday night at The Hi Hat when my friends at Badass Bands Blog will be celebrating their 5 year anniversary with a great line up of bands and what I’m sure will be an awesome crowd of people.
