It's starting to feel more like San Diego as we approach the weekend and have numerous great shows to choose from. Rolling into town is Tim Kasher, hot off the release of his third solo record. The Cursive and the Good Life singer is also stopping into Lou's Records for an afternoon in-store if you can't make it to his show at the Casbah. At House of Blues, rock en Espanol legends Enanitos Verdes will please the crowd, and Cosmonauts bring their psychedelic garage sound to Space. At the Belly Up, Zappa does Zappa, and Soda Bar goes power-pop with Charly Bliss. Good choices on down the list, if you can muster up the energy to get out and find it.
