Things To Do In San Diego: Tuesday, October 23-Monday, October 29, 2018

It was a pretty great week in San Diego. I got to see SYML at the Casbah and my mind was blown by opener Dizzy. On Wednesday, I got to see all the amazing talent of San Diego in Queen UnderCover (I filmed the whole set and posted it here.) On Thursday, I worked at the Chase Atlantic show, and on Friday, I got to see The Silent Comedy at the Casbah. On Saturday, Darren and  I went to the grand re-opening of Viejas Casino, had a nice Sunday with my family, and Monday was back to the grind of work and soccer momming. I'm looking forward to another great week, and don't be surprised if you catch me out this week in my unicorn onesie. Full listings through Monday are after the jump.
