Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 6/4-6/13

First thing you will notice about this particular listing is that it’s for a week and a half instead of the standard week. “Why,” you ask. One word. Bonnaroo!!!! Kristen and I are heading out to Tennessee for the festival and have some post Bonnaroo activities planned as well. I’m flying back on Wednesday because it was a cheaper alternative than Tuesday and because I don’t spend enough time in Nashville. But there’s still lots of stuff to do in SD while I’m away.

It’s another day in paradise. The sun is out, it’s warm but not hot, and the birds are making their own chirpy music. Yep, it’s a hard life here in San Diego. After all my outings this past month, I’m taking it easy this week. I found out I’m not 21 anymore and able to be out every night and fully functional the next day. This old girl needs some R&R but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go out this week. We have some great shows including; Atomic Tom at Lestats, The Burning of Rome at Soda Bar, The New Kinetics at Tin Can Alehouse, and Martin Sexton at The Belly Up. Get out there!

It’s a fresh new Monday fresh from Christmas. I hope everyone had a lovely time filled with family, friends, and good times. I also hope you got everything you wanted and nothing you didn’t (but if not, there is always Amazon or Craigslist)!

Can you believe New Years is on Saturday? Where did the year go? Well, I’ll be posting some musical highlights from my year later this week. Speaking of New Years, the only place you should be is at the Lafayette Hotel for the Silent Comedy/Transfer show which features The Creepy Creeps, Low Volts and The Heavy Guilt. It’s going to be a crazy good time!!
