Earlier this week, we posted about San Diegans who've "made it big," and today you can catch a couple of them for free. Start off your day at the annual Switchfoot Bro-Am, a surf competition that closes with a free concert at Moonlight Beach. Mr. Foreman and crew will be joined by Colony House and Sure Sure and the whole thing is free. Later in the evening, head to Pacific Beach for Little Hurricane. The married duo are new parents and still finding the time to tour and play live, and tonight they're joined by the Verigolds and Skyler Lutes. I've been told this is a free show with hosted drinks, but you'll have to go yourself to find out for sure. I have to admit that I'm a little bummed the Regrettes show is already sold out at the Che Cafe because I adore them, but other options tonight include the Schizophonics at Casbah, Magic Giant at Belly Up and Negative Gemini with George Clanton at Soda Bar.
