Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 02/16-02/22

As this calendar comes out, I’ll be visiting a new venue, Sid the Cat Auditorium, for the first time. The occasion is a Valentine’s Day Ball with Z Berg and friends and the one and only Sarah McLachlan is listed as one of those friends. Also listed is Z Berg’s band, The Like, which was a big college era band for me so potential for nostalgia is high.

More long-time favorites highlight the calendar next week. The Cordovas with George Stanford, Joe Pug, and two nights of Lights at the El Rey are all bound to stir those musically driven emotions.

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 2/9-2/15

Posted on 7 Days Ago by Amanda

I don’t feel like I have much to say here. I haven’t been watching the Olympics. I didn’t watch the Superbowl, although I heard the cheering from my apartment. I did make it out to see Alex Sampson last weekend. I remember I first found him on Instagram years ago, so it was nice to see him in person. I discovered some new music by means of his openers and I’ll add them to my queue. I’ve been listening to music I know I should have listened to years ago and I’m getting “caught up” in a sense. Oh look, guess I had something to say after all.

There was a moment last week at the Luca Fogale show where the entire front row seemed to have glistening cheeks. It was difficult not to be overwhelmed at the power and beauty of his music as Luca and his band played mostly new songs off the album Challenger, which was released that very night. But this is the kind of overwhelm I live for and there is nothing quite like group therapy in music form.
