Things To Do In San Diego: Monday, October 15-Monday, October 22, 2018

It was a busy week of work and shows...I caught The Twilight Sad on Wednesday, then spent the next three nights working at the Irenic for Hinds, We Were Promised Jetpacks, and Jeremy Zucker. It was fun catching Dream Wife on Friday night and I know I'm not the only one who loved getting rain in San Diego. Nova's soccer was canceled on Saturday but she had a morning game on Sunday and then I intended to catch Gregory Alan Isakov but just couldn't get out of the house in time. This week there are some rad shows but I'm not sure which ones I'll get out to besides working at the Irenic on Thursday. Too much good stuff, but I'm definitely gonna hit the town at least a few nights this week. Full listings through Monday are after the jump.
