Things To Do In San Diego: Tuesday, January 29-Monday, February 4, 2019

It has been so busy with the Casbah 30, but I was also kinda sick last week, so I missed both Pinback shows, but had a blast at Transfer and No Knife. Nova got back from sixth grade camp on Friday, so we spent the afternoon oohing and ahhing at the baby elephant and the six week old cheetah cubs in the nursery and then went to the zoo on Saturday. I am exhausted so I'll keep this short and just say if anyone has an in for Elton, I'm totally down. I also plan on checking The Silent Comedy, Three Mile Pilot, Cursive and Mineral, and Olafur Arnalds. Whether I can hit them all is another story, but that's the plan for now. Listings through Monday are after the jump.
