Thursday night is a grab bag of delight, and you can be sure that just about anywhere you go is going to be full of surprises. La Diabla, hailing from Tijuana, conjure up some of the area's finest cumbia music, or catch Brookly duo the Mast at Soda Bar. Local Nicky Venus gets booties shaking at Bar Pink, while Deep Sea Thunderbeast rock out Til-Two. Probably the most enticing act of the night is the MarchFourth Marching Band, because, really, who doesn't love a full marching band fitting on a tiny club stage? Catch them tonight at the Belly Up.
