This weekend is jam-packed with fun stuff. The Mustache Bash brings together quite a party at the Port Pavilion, Indie Fest 9 features Bear Hands and many others at the City Heights Urban Village, and the Desert Hearts Spring Festival takes place at Los Coyotes Indian Reservation. By night, the Loons return to the Casbah, Blockhead play at Soda Bar, and Tyrone Wells will be at House of Blues. The pick of the day, however, is Jeremy Enigk at the Irenic. The lead vocalist of trailblazers Sunny Day Real Estate has been on his own for several years after failed attempts at a SDRE reunion, but he hasn't done a proper tour in years -- his last stop in San Diego was more than six years ago. This is one show not to be missed.
