Sounds Like San Diego: January 5

SoCal ska-punk legends Buck-O-Nine head into the Casbah Thursday

For nearly three decades, locals Buck-O-Nine have been making fans old and new dance to their catchy and high energy tunes. Their purely SoCal sound of ska-punk has held up over the years and though they don't tour like they used to and their paths have found them living in various locales, every once in a while they get back together for a big ol' reunion, and what better way to delve into Casbah's anniversary month? Meanwhile, SpringBoard West continues at Music Box (read the SoundDiego preview of the festival here), the Devil Makes Three plays their second night at the Observatory, and Jersey "mathcore" act the Number 12 Looks Like You drop into Soda Bar.
