Sounds Like San Diego: May 1

May is here, and, boy, are we ready to party! It's been a while since our last free SoundDiego LIVE shindig, and this month we're heading to the newly remodeled space known as the Hideout. We've got Garage to Glory winners Badabing, as well as support act Hit Dog Hollar and the reunited sensation the New Kinetics headlining -- you gotta be on the guest list for the free goodies, but the event is open to the public. You can be sure that this one is going to be superb. Afterward, walk down to Soda Bar and catch Bleeding Rainbow, or just stick around and grow to love one of our new favorite spots in San Diego.
