Things To Do In San Diego: Friday, December 20-Thursday, December 26, 2024: Ziggy Shuffledust | Samantha Fish | El Vez | The Vandals | Social D | Crasher | Sara Petite| Marujah | Exile on Kettner Blvd |

 

Sorry about the delay for listings, but I needed some time to process, to sleep, to grieve, to understand that sometimes a thing can be a trigger to a whole bunch of other things and I kinda needed to let all that stuff work out without working. On Thursday, a friend and I went to SeaWorld and had the best time enjoying the lights and walking around and just how empty it was. We saw Chance, the baby dolphin rescue and one of his care specialists talked to us for awhile about him, so it was like an extra behind-the-scenes, plus we saw one of the sloths active, watched the Orca Encounter with 59-year-old Orca Corky featured, and then spent a bunch of time with the belugas and walruses, who were especially playful. So consider it animal therapy. 

Anyway, I decided to do the listings through Thursday because the NYE listings always take an extra long amount of time, so those will come next week. There's a ton of great stuff going on leading up to Christmas, however I would still double check your favorite karaoke/trivia/DJ nights because some of those maybe weren't updated on calendars and still appeared even if they may or may not be happening around the holidays. Also, at the time I'm finishing these listings, there are SEVEN tickets left for Ziggy Shuffledust, so get them or the night will be sold out. El Vez has a little more, but after the Casbah newsletter goes out, those could be gone, too. And lastly, it has been super foggy at night around here. You should definitely get out on the town and party, but if you're drinking, don't be driving. 
Stay safe out there. 

Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, December 19, 2024: Digable Planets & The Pharcyde | Faetooth | Dumbo Gets Mad | Too $hort | Gilbert Castellanos |

I should've done listings earlier this week, but I didn't and then a super fun Tuesday night happened at the Casbah, which made for a rough Wednesday. And then in the afternoon I got some horrible news that one of my favorite monkeys at the zoo died suddenly and I just haven't been able to get my shit together over it. So that said, I'm just gonna post Thursday listings and hopefully I can get the rest through Christmas done when I've had a minute to process it. I will say that the Friday Ziggy Shuffledust and Saturday El Vez shows at the Casbah are almost sold out, so if you're hoping to go to either, get your tickets in advance while you still can.

Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, December 12-Wednesday, December 18, 2024: Tall Heights | The Bronx | Mariachi El Bronx | A Foolish Casbah Christmas | Ride |

Listings are done and I'm trying to go to a show and since I'm finally healthy again, why not mess it all up by putting poison into my body?? I've got a couple posts in the works and a couple things to add to these listings, but for now, you get what you get. 

Stay safe out there. 

Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, December 5-Wednesday, December 11, 2024: The New DIvision | December Nights | OB Holiday Parade | SoNo Fest | Thunderpussy | John Waters | Dawes | Crosses | Echosmith | Sports Team | Chuck Ragan |

Where were we? Oh yeah. So I have been feeling sick, found out it is bronchitis, got some hella strong meds that must've had some steroid properties because then I was up ALL NIGHT on Tuesday when I did these listings, and didn't finally fall asleep until 11:30. A.M.!! Ugh. So Wednesday was kinda shit, I slept a few hours, did some afternoon work, then went to Sea World around 4 until closing because I knew if I didn't get some physical activity in, that I would just cycle into another restless all-nighter for no reason. 

This weekend is gonna be bananas, with lots of holiday stuff, parades, tree lightings, shows, and of course, December Nights at Balboa Park, which will snarl traffic in every direction, so make your plans accordingly. I've got my plans all drawn up in my head, we'll just see how well I can execute while also not over-doing it and making myself feel terrible all over again. I'm like 80% now, would like to feel 100% by the weekend. I'm also working at Music Box for Crystal Method and Boombox, so I have to plan for the funny way my body feels for hours after bass heavy shows. 

I also wanted to point out one show this week. There's a band called Sports Team playing at the House of Blues Voodoo Room on Monday. While they were in Northern California grabbing snacks at a convenience store, they were robbed at gunpoint and a bunch of their personal effects were stolen, particularly electronics, laptops, and the like. It's super fucked up. If you can make it to their show and buy some merch or just show some love, I'm sure they'd appreciate it. 

Stay safe (and sane) out there. 

Rosey's Diary & Newsy Things: SD Zoo Welcomes New Bonobo In Swap | Developer Trying To Force Sale Of Liberty Station | Holiday Dog Safety | Done With The News |

New Girl, Bertie, the bonobo who recently joined the family. (Taken 12.2.24)

It has been awhile since I've posted a diary post. Since October 28th if we wanna be specific. I was gutted by the election results--though let's be honest--not shocked and I don't really want to talk about the catastrophe coming for us in 2025. Self-preservation will be the theme, self-care and survival will be top priority. I've also pretty much been sick since just after the election and after making excuses or thinking it was just a cold and no big deal, I finally went to urgent care and was told I have bronchitis. It was such a relief in a way, to know that I wasn't just imagining feeling like shit and also that with some strong antibiotics, I should be able to kick it relatively quickly.  

I'm gonna try and knock out as much of the listings I can tonight so they'll be ready to go on Thursday, but just a heads up that I'm going to do my best to get all the holiday stuff in, too, but there's a lot and I haven't updated my holiday page since before the pandemic, so I'm certain to miss some stuff. Just know that Friday and Saturday is December Nights in Balboa Park, so know that whether you attend or not, traffic will be affected all over from the 94 to the 8, from the 5 to the 15, and everything in between, and maybe even beyond. Make a plan or don't, but the complaining is so exhausting. 200,000 people all want to do the same thing on two days of the year. Plan accordingly. I'll be working on Thursday and Friday night, but hopefully I can revise my 2023 plan and make it work in 2024 and will avoid all associated headaches. 

Stay safe (and healthy) out there. I'm off to get started on listings. 

Things To Do In San Diego: Friday, November 29-Wednesday, December 4, 2024: The Avengers | Shallou | Scary Pierre| Thee Sacred Souls| Better Than Ezra| Dinosaur Jr. |

I wasn't gonna publish until Friday, but ended up staying up all night working on them anyway, so here are your listings. If you need a show tonight, Bancroft is your option. Have a nice Thanksgiving and stay safe out there. The zoo has extended hours until 7pm this weekend and Seaworld is open until 8 all weekend, in case you need to know where I'll be when I'm not doing family time or working. 

Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, November 21- Thursday, November 28, 2024: ADULT. | Lucero| Orion Sun| Rise Against| The Surfrajettes} SUUNS| HONNE| Gothsgiving|

It feels like I learned nothing with all my COVID coverage. I had a cold last week, then started feeling better again, so I did all the things, and then you kinda get knocked out again. However, I have noticed that I feel great in the daytime with just some dayquil and lots of fluids and being outside, and then when I'm home, the congestion hits, so maybe that's wall-to-wall carpet thing irritating my sinuses and less of 'sickness'. Regardless, I stocked up on new masks, though I was sad to see Costco no longer carries the N95s we loved, and am trying to mind my space from people as much as I can. 

I haven't put together a diary post because I'm still not recovered from the election, but I will say I had a super great weekend-- besides my zoo time, I hit the Sea World Christmas preview on Friday, and went to the Alpaca Ranch, the Zoo, and Sea World all on Saturday. "Great" isn't the word I'd use for Sunday, but one of my closest high school friends recently died of breast cancer, so while obviously it is horrible, she knew for several years, made an amazing podcast about her fight, and ultimately faced it in a way only she could, so memorializing her and being with old friends was pretty special. And then after all that, I got to see Blind Pilot at the Belly Up, who I realized are in my top 5 all time favorite artists (with Nada Surf, Rocky Votolato, Frightened Rabbit, and The National). I've mostly just been at the zoo this week, but did a beluga interaction at Sea World, too, and now it's Wednesday night and I'm going to see Cyndi Lauper with my mom. Which is another story for another time, but I'm super excited. I hope everyone has a really great week. 

Stay safe out there. Go get vaccinated for Flu and COVID while you still can.

Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, November 7- Wednesday, November 13, 2024: Deaf Club | Modest Mouse| BEAT| Stop Light Observations | John Hiatt| Crowbar|

There's no way to pretend that the outcome of the presidential election isn't completely devastating, but if my kid can wake up on Wednesday morning and get himself to school (where his friends wondered at lunch if they or there parents will be deported), then certainly I can suck it up and move forward. If you need live music or to get fucked up at any of the many dance nights, or just need to belly up to a bar and watch karaoke, you have community here. On the opposite scope of things, I'm grateful I didn't drink on election night because it would've made the whole thing and next day way, way worse. Carry on, my beautiful San Diego. At least this is the place we get to call home. (and super shout out to Isaac, who generously donated to this site!)

Stay safe out there. 

Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, October 31- Wednesday, November 6, 2024: SD Halloween Freakout | Creepy Creeps | Southern Culture on the Skids | King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard | La Santa Cecilia | Men At Work | ELECTION DAY!!
