It's Easter Sunday in San Diego, and while we've been promised the same beautiful weather we've had for the past few days, it's not surprising that many of our usual venues are closed for the occasion. Fortunately, not everyone is taking the night off, especially those Coachella bands who are working their way around Southern California after their epic desert performances. One of the bands coming through is Little Dragon. They played the Observatory before with a whole lot less fanfare, but you can be sure that this is going to be a great show with a lively performance from the band. Around town, Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter and producer Anders Osborne plays the Belly Up, punk rockers Downtown Boys play Soda Bar and Ratty holds court at Bar Pink for Rat Sabbath.
