Things To Do In San Diego: August 8-10, 2014

This week has been absolutely amazing. Darren and I met two years ago this week, and we had just returned from our vacation in Hercules and thought we'd be chilling out this week, but instead had an awesome Tuesday going to Spoon at the Lafayette, Arcade Fire and Spoon at Sleep Train where we scored box seats and pit wristbands. On Wednesday I worked for Jagwar Ma which was a pretty great show even if I jokingly make fun of "knob-turners". Thursday was another excellent night as we went to see Courtney Barnett at the Casbah. I got to interview her for SoundDiego, so keep an eye out for that to air in the next couple weeks. I'll for sure share the air-date when I know. I scored a last minute invite, so today I'm flying to San Francisco for Outside Lands and then will be riding back with a friend on Sunday, so I don't know when I'll get around to next week's listings, you might be on your own for Monday, but I'll get around to them eventually.
