It sometimes hurts me to my core when our favorite venues go dark for a night, so I'm pleased that we're back on track with live music all over town tonight. At the Casbah, catch legendary ska band the Toasters. They've been around since '81, so don your favorite two-tone outfit and be ready to dance the night away. Meanwhile, Soda Bar hosts a sold out show with Bay Area's "electronic acoustic" act Still Woozy, and Bar Pink has a showcase with Aether X from North County leading a night of rock. And of course, the "will he or won't he perform during halftime" hot act du jour, Travis Scott, plays at Pechanga Arena. If you're looking for some Southern Rock, Blackberry Smoke play their first of two nights with our buddy Chris Shiflett opening at the Belly Up.
