Things To Do In San Diego: July 29-31, 2011

Thursday night was quite the night. After a good solid day of work and a disco nap, I went to see Jesse LaMonaca at West Coast Tavern, The Bloody Hollies at Mary Jane's, Dynamite Walls (after they finished) at the Casbah, then popped into URBN and finished the night at Bar Pink. I've been trying to get these listings done ever since (yes, it is seven hours later). I was actually gonna go to sleep but someone on Twitter specifically asked what's going on Saturday and honestly, had I gone to sleep, I wouldn't have posted these until Friday afternoon. So you're welcome @TMFR. Happy birthday. My sleep deprivation is my gift to you.

Saturday and Sunday listings are after the jump.
