Local music rules Thursday night with three of San Diego's best at the Casbah. Dirty Sirens are quickly becoming a local favorite while the Palace Ballroom and Blackout Party are proven veterans of the scene. Besides this great lineup, it's a benefit for Rady Children's Hospital worthy of your support. Bar Pink is also supporting the locals with a show headlined by Paper Thins, while Tin Can does the same with Social Club leading the pack. Plenty of good choices around town if you'd like to make Thursday the new Friday.
