Things To Do In San Diego: Friday, May 24-Tuesday, May 28, 2019 - Memorial Day Weekend

Idles slaying the Belly Up on Tuesday, May 21st, 2019


I decided that I'd do a weekend update of the listings because (a) I realized I had skipped a handful of venues for the weekend listings unintentionally (b) because there are sooo many updates of sell-outs and (c) because the week overall has been rad but Thursday was an entire wasted day of suck that I want to start fresh with the weekend. Quick rundown...I went to that amazing Johnny Marr show at House of Blues on Monday. On Tuesday, I went to see Idles and Fontaines DC at Belly Up, which was total insanity, and followed up with Geographer at Casbah, and on Wednesday I went to a lecture about ethics in wildlife photography which was more fascinating than it maybe sounds. Thursday was a shitshow day if you follow the Casbah Facebook page, so I spent a day that was supposed to be chill fully troubleshooting and trying to fix all of the events. When I got things back in order, we spent the evening with my nieces and then I went to Darren's soccer game and spent the night catching up on my trash TV. So yeah, a good week. A shit day. An awesome weekend ahead. Listings through Tuesday, as updated as I could make them, after the jump.

Update: Due to illness, the shows with THE WHITE BUFFALO scheduled for tonight (Friday May 24) and tomorrow night (Saturday May 25) have to be postponed until Monday September 2 and Tuesday September 3. 

Tickets for the May 24th show will be honored for the September 2nd show and tickets for the May 25th show will be honored for the September 3rd show.  If you cannot make the new show date work then refunds will be available at point of purchase.

Tonight the opening act, LA Edwards, will still perform one set at 9pm, and tomorrow night, he will be joined by Ron Blair & The Chris Torres Band, and Nancarrow.  All ticket holders for either White Buffalo show are welcome to join us free of charge for either (or both) of these shows
