A Scribe Amidst the Lions

During the Casbah's 23rd anniversary month, you're going to see a wide variety of some of San Diego's greatest bands from the past, present and future. With so many stellar lineups, everyone is making each show a little more special in various ways. Tonight is no exception as A Scribe Amidst the Lions celebrate a vinyl release. The 7-inch record is a split with Mexico City rockers Sour Soul, and later this spring, the band will journey south of the border to release the record in Mexico City. A Scribe Amidst the Lions will have hand-screen-printed posters available, too, so plan on leaving with some swag after the rock is done.
