Sounds Like San Diego: October 16

There are so many ways to listen to music these days, and unfortunately this also means there are so many ways to ignore it. Take for example Bombay Bicycle Club. I'm not sure how I don't own any of the band's three albums, but the good news is that with sites like Spotify, I can listen to them on demand. This is great for me, because they're one of those bands that I hear all the time on Sirius and have to look up going, "Who is this?!" I know how hard it is to keep up with music in addition to real life and jobs and family and sports and all of the things in this city, but if you've seen Bombay Bicycle Club before, certainly you bought your House of Blues tickets already. And if you haven't, the show is all ages and there are tickets available at the box office before the show. If you're over 21 and the Londoners aren't your thing, try heading over to the Casbah for Los Campesinos!, a band formed in Wales who always blow the lid off the place.
