You can certainly get your fill of music today. Start off with the annual CityFest in Hillcrest to catch some great local talent. From there, you can swing over to Eleven's final day of their 1-year anniversary celebration with a free BBQ and music from MEX (Mario Escovedo Experience). After the matinee, you can head up to Solana Beach for Aimee Mann and the Wilderness of Manitoba, who are surely ready to give you performances that will make you forget that it's almost Monday.
