So you thought, "Oh, it's just Tuesday. I'll take it easy so I'm all rested up for Comic-Con." Well, think again, because there are some great shows around town. Personally, I can't wait to see Cayucas again. The band has been through a few times in the past couple years, and it's building steam, for sure, and their frenetic and catchy music will definitely put you in a great mood. Meanwhile at the Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre at SDSU (yes, that is now the full name), the Neighbourhood headline a show with the support of Danny Brown, Travi$ Scott and the not-to-be-missed White Arrows. It wasn't long ago that the Neighbourhood were opening at House of Blues, then after a sold-out headlining show there, the OAT is the next level for them. Up-and-comers the Crookes perform at the Voodoo Room at House of Blues, Chromeo does a special DJ set at Fluxx put together by Energy 103.7 to help promote an upcoming show at SOMA, and Shaggy -- your '90s throwback for the night -- performs at the House of Blues.
