There aren't a lot of options tonight, but the few that exist are pretty sweet. The Casbah has the Daylights, an L.A. band that plays soaring rock melodies. They've gotten a ton of attention in L.A., which means there's a heavy push to be sure that they won't be playing small venues like the Casbah for long, so check them now. Among your other choices: Those Darlins are an all-girl rock band that will bring the party to the Soda Bar, or you can catch the second installment of Taking Back Monday over at U-31.
