You want shows? San Diego has plenty to go around. From the groovy garage sounds of the Sadies and the Loons at the Casbah to singer/songwriter David Cook at the Griffin, this night just might have something for every taste. For the indie lovers, the Lonely Forest will rule at Soda Bar, and for hip-hop heads, Busdriver will deliver an intimate performance at the Void. For those of you who are still into the Halloween and Day of the Dead spirit, Dead Man's Party is a Belly Up favorite with their covers of Oingo Boingo, and even the pop lovers can have some fun with Cody Simpson at the House of Blues. Plenty to explore all over town tonight, so find your groove and just go with it.
