It's been such a busy weekend, and you guys have been on top of your game buying tickets early enough to sell out so many shows. While that is super great to keep all these amazing artists coming back to San Diego, it's also a bummer if you didn't plan ahead. Of course, lucky for you, there are still some cool shows with tickets available, like Ten Fe, whose sophomore album sees them expanding from a duo to a full band, their grooves garnering comparisons to War on Drugs, (though I hear a lot of Midlake in there, too). They're appearing at the Casbah along with locals Creature Canyon, who are getting some national attention of late, too. Meanwhile, you can catch the Foreign Resort, whose website succintly calls them "seriously outstanding post-punk from Copenhagen," and who recently dropped their first record in a couple years. There's plenty of music to be had, whether you choose an afternoon session in Flinn Springs, an evening session at Panama 66 or a nighttime get-down at Dizzy's -- and a lot of reasons to treat yourself on this magical Sunday.
