It's funny how it still feels like summer in San Diego. The weather doesn't indicate that fall is upon us, and the big tours just keep on coming. From Phish at Sleep Train Amphitheatre to Daryl Hall & John Oates at the Open Air Theatre, you can definitely enjoy a big show with big names. On a smaller scale, however, the incredible Vacationer appears at the Casbah on Saturday, Griffin House performs at Soda Bar, and Dead Man's Party return to Belly Up. The big picks this evening, however, are Warpaint at the North Park Theatre and Jenny Lewis at the House of Blues. Both have created quite a stir this year on the festival circuit, and both are loved even more for their live performances than their recordings. Regardless of what you choose, you're going to have a great night of live music in San Diego.
