Sounds Like San Diego: February 12

There is so much great music around that hopefully you've avoided one of the crazy illnesses going around that seems to be taking out so many of us. Sycamore Den taps the Heart Beat Trail, Soda Bar goes punk with Cro-Mags, and the Observatory North Park keeps on the rap tip with Juicy J. The show to see, of course, is Barbarian at the Casbah. The band is fresh off its album release (which just joined our SoundDiego Record Club) and currently prevailing in many "most likely to" categories. Yes, we've expected big things from these guys for some time now, but it just might be the moment when their star finally rises beyond "hometown hopefuls."
