If you're feeling the itch to get out on the town tonight, you've got a few solid choices. The eccentric and always entertaining Jonathan Richman and Tommy Larkins return to the Belly Up for what seems to have become an annual Christmas tradition. At Soda Bar, catch Los Angeles space rockers Veers along with local support from Black Oak Hymnal and Velour. Anti-Monday League is still going strong at the Casbah with Exasperation, a new project by locals David Mead and Garrett Prange. Meanwhile, singer/songwriter Don DiLego -- who's seen critical acclaim as an artist to watch by the likes of the Guardian, Buzzfeed and Paste -- makes a Del Mar appearance at Brick 15.
