Things To Do In San Diego: March 19, 2008

Look, you've got to quit your whining about not getting Vampire Weekend tickets. It's nobody's fault but your own that you missed them in the fall, and now you saw them on SNL and just have to see them or you will die. Well, the blogger spin cycle is on full speed and music snobs everywhere will be using the word "overrated" soon enough (if they're not already). Get over the fact that you're not getting into the Casbah tonight and instead, head over to U-31 for Birdmonster who gave an amazing performance to a sparse crowd a couple weeks ago at the Casbah. They're good. Believe me.
