It's been a pretty mellow week in San Diego, but that changes tonight when Brandon Flowers of the Killers hits the House of Blues, Chris Robinson returns to the Casbah, Lenka and Greg Laswell play Anthology, and Biffy Clyro takes on the Belly Up. These are solid shows and you can't really go wrong with any of them, though two of the four are sold out, which might limit your options if you didn't plan in advance. There are solid local shows around town, too, so there should certainly be something for everyone. On a side note, it's not very often my mom calls me about music, but she begged me to take her to Chris Robinson, so hopefully he plays the lengthy show he did last time around. Come meet sddialedin Sr. at the show!
