Our SoundDiego crew has been buzzing of late as we have been eagerly anticipating tonight's SoundDiego LIVE party at Space. For one, it feels like our crew hasn't hung out together in far too long, but we also think we've put together a pretty stellar (get it?) lineup at Space. From the bedroom-pop of the Memories to the chunky guitar and stoner-stylings of Colleen Green to the all out glam-rock of Josh Kmak's Creepseed, it's going to be a pretty awesome night (the event is free and open to the public but subject to capacity). Of course, we know we're not the only gig in town, so around town punk band the Vandals play Observatory, Casbah hosts a Blink and Jimmy Eat World tribute night, Tijuana Panthers play the Belly Up and Java Joe's promises surprise special guests at their singer-songwriter showcase.
