This just might be the best hump day of the year if you look on down the list of incredible shows around town Wednesday. If you're not familiar with Basia Bulat, for starters, stop what you're doing and find any of a number of acoustic radio performances she's done and you might be instantly sold as I was. The songstress graces the stage of the Casbah with the Weather Station. Meanwhile, if you've been in San Diego for more than a decade, you should know it is not very often that punk locals Battalion of Saints get back together. See this rare performance at Til-Two Club. Then House of Blues has Mutemath, which I always feel deserves an exclamation point for some reason, and Tyga is at the Observatory. Find a good show and enjoy because Wednesdays don't always look this good.
