Things To Do In San Diego: January 8-9, 2013

Talk about curveballs! So I really intended to update you on a whole bunch of stuff happening around San Diego. Then the weekend came up so fast and there I was, trying to get downtown to get on camera for the 11 o'clock news on NBC and I was gonna post that clip with my FULL PAGE in Pacific Magazine and act like I know stuff about stuff...and then there's my long awaited diary post that will just bore the hell out of most of you, especially since the last one was in November, and then there are band updates and venue updates and mostly I'm sure the most exciting thing I can say right now is that the Casbah has been around for 24 years and this whole month is a massive celebration of that fact. I will post all of the other things (and I meant to tonight but when power went out it was a great excuse for a date night), but mostly you need to know I'm here and I promise to catch up on everything soon enough. Not like you really need my blah blah blah, but it will come nonetheless. Tuesday and Wednesday archives are after the jump.
