There are some businesses in every city that feel like they are part of the fabric of the city's culture, and in San Diego, Pizzeria Luigi is one of those businesses. The pizza is awesome and affordable, and the business supports local communities. Today, Luigi's celebrates their anniversary with live bands all day at their Golden Hill location. You can be sure it will be packed with all the cool kids, so walk or ride your bike there and make a day of it. Around town, Shabazz Palaces has a DJ set at the Casbah, the Screamin' Yeehaws are at Winston's, and the Nightowls are at Soda Bar. For a free show tonight, check out Your Friend at Whistle Stop.
