Things To Do In San Diego: Friday, September 18-Sunday, September 20, 2015

My friends are asking why I'm missing KAABOO this weekend, and the truth is that I didn't feel highly motivated to attend. I missed the press deadline, but in reality I couldn't see losing my whole weekend to the festival. I like and love plenty of the bands on the lineup- I even calculated and have seen over 40 of the bands live before- but I just have way too much going on to blow it all off for a festival. I hope everyone going has a great time, that all my friends playing grow their audiences, and that the weather cooperates, but I am going to keep my weekend to a minimum, with Julieta Venegas tonight at Music Box, The Killers tomorrow at Observatory, and Lucy's Fur Coat on Sunday. Saturday and Sunday listings are after the jump.
