The North Park Festival of Arts is finally here! I'm so excited about my stage performers and also excited to get a chunk of time back in my life. But all the work and meetings and emails and time are totally worth it and I hope everyone comes down to say hi and check out the amazing talent, the great vendors, and all of the unique art.

I mean, we are in the glory of outdoor festival time here in San Diego and there's so much fun stuff to do this weekend that it's going to be hard to miss things that are overlapping, but I'm looking forward to jumping on my bike and doing as much as I can.

I have to say it was a very, very good week. I posted that really long diary post a few days ago, but I'd rather not get so backlogged and since I'm awake and somewhat alert and avoiding my inbox, I feel like sharing.
I feel like my vocabulary is so limited these days. Amazing and epic and great and beautiful and exciting seem to be so overused in my posts lately, but when I think about how I Rosemaryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12261917303245243538noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37241561.post-40331907068909593172013-05-16T17:08:00.004-07:002013-05-16T17:13:38.822-07:002013-05-16T17:13:38.822-07:00Things To Do In San Diego Thursday May 16, 2013

The Appleseed Cast
The last place indie bands might reside is Lawrence, Kansas. A smallish university community is indeed home base for the two bands playing the Casbah this Sunday. They are veteran band The Appleseed Cast and relative newcomers Hospital Ships. Both bands share the same label, Graveface Records. The Appleseed Cast moved from LA to their current home in 1999.

It has been nearly three months since I've written a diary post. Jeff recently pointed out to me. He says that it is clear my life has changed, and with it my priorities have shifted. And while that may be true to an extent, between trying to keep up with marketing for the Casbah, writing for SoundDiego, booking the North Park Festival of Arts Main Stage, picking up some babysitting, and still Rosemaryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12261917303245243538noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37241561.post-30820435027269086732013-05-12T15:46:00.002-07:002013-05-12T15:46:42.283-07:002013-05-12T15:46:42.283-07:00Recommended Shows in San Diego May 13-19, 2013

Seattle five piece indie rockers Minus the Bear will be making their next San Diego appearance this Wednesday on the campus of UCSD.

The first full week of May shows no let down in the number of quality musical events right here in sunny San Diego. A closer look reveals the following of note:

Yellow Red Sparks were amazing last night, so outside of the 20 or people or so who were there, I'm sorry you missed out and I'm sure when they're super famous you'll be clamoring to spend $40 to see them at the House of Blues or some shit.

Today has been awesome for a million reasons but I'm in the middle of a quasi-#24hourdate so I'll tell you about it another time. Tomorrow is going to be super busy, too, but hopefully I'll get your weekend listings up soonish. xoxo

'Holy shit that sounds good!'
After ten+ years in SD and countless shows at the Casbah, I can honestly say I've never heard those words uttered by someone on stage. Partway through an absolutely searing set from Minneapolis-based four piece Poliça, lead singer Channy Leaneagh said what was on everyone's mind as the packed house rocked out to the indie-electro rock stylings of yet another Nate Vandermeulenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02130997368011841544noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37241561.post-3702832244472918362013-04-28T15:03:00.003-07:002013-05-01T20:08:05.142-07:002013-05-01T20:08:05.142-07:00Things To Do In San Diego: April 28-30, 2013I know it's the middle of the day, so you're probably all out and about, but I wanted to update the listings because there's been a lineup change at the Casbah tonight. White Lung had to cancel due to a family emergency, so the new lineup(and better one if you ask me) is Metz, Mrs. Magician, Marsupials. Happy Sunday! Sunday through Tuesday archives are after the jump.
