Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 1/14-1/20

It’s almost noon on Monday and I’m still in bed. Not for much longer though. I officially go back to tomorrow because apparently I like to torture myself. I just had what you might call a ‘last hurrah’ at Disneyland yesterday after being a part of A Trolley Show featuring one of our favorite bands Youngblood Hawke. I guess my point is to please excuse this ramble because my brain still isn’t fully functional.

Happy November! I hope you all had a great Halloween and you celebrated it exactly as you wanted. I spent mine finishing up a bio paper and handing out candy to the 10 kids that came by.

Anyways, November is shaping up to have some good acts coming though and you should get out there and enjoy them!

What is the protocol when Halloween falls on a Wednesday? Well, judging from Facebook, some of you have been celebrating it already and I’m extremely jealous.
