Things To Do In San Diego: Friday, October 16- Sunday, October 18, 2015

It has been another doozy of a week. Nova's second week of fall break had us running all over town. In the past three days alone, we had a morning at Lake Murray, an afternoon swim party, dance class, hit the Waterfront Park, a Halloween party, and a birthday party at Urban Jungle, all the while trying to make sure I stayed caught up with work (I am the jerk that takes a laptop to Urban Jungle), including a Casbah meeting and my usual bazillion emails. My nights were pretty busy, too, with Wolf Alice on Monday, Other Lives on Tuesday, A Silent Film on Wednesday, and Jose Gonzalez on Thursday. Today we'll be catching a private party with Echosmith, then I'll either be working at The Irenic or The Observatory while Darren takes Nova to OAT for 21 Pilots and Echosmith. I'm not sure exactly where I'll end up on Saturday with the Besties at the Fleet, Hinds at the Irenic, and FIDLAR at the Observatory, but on Sunday I'm going to make every effort to see Givers at the Belly Up. Here's to hoping we see some of the rain that hit LA, minus the destructive landslides. Saturday and Sunday listings are after the jump.
