Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 11/7-11/13

It’s finally starting to feel like winter here in San Diego! This past weekend we had a significant amount of rain accompanied by thunder and lightening. There is still a crisp coolness in the air that makes me want to cozy up with a blanket, a book, and some hot chocolate. However, that doesn’t mean you can be bundled and out enjoying some music.

Amanda’s SD Show Calendar 9/26-10/2

What a weekend! While I did nothing really musically oriented, I definitely was wiped out by the end of it. What was I doing? Funny you should ask. I was working at a rodeo. I used to ride in said rodeo but this time I was just a helping hand. I did get some boogie time with some country music but boy, I’m still tired. Oh, I did see the Blue Man Group for the first time last night! That’s musical. And definitely fun!

But enough about me…
