After such an eventful weekend, it might be really hard to transition back into the work week, but that's why Monday nights exist. Especially when your Monday can be spent with the Little Richards. I'm not generally excited about cover or tribute acts, but with El Vez fronting this tribute and members of New Kinetics and Schizophonics providing the instrumentation, you can guarantee yourself an awesome performance. Around town, seniors say goodbye at UCSD with an EDM show with Allison Wonderland, while Katchafire bring reggae to Belly Up, and Mega Ran leads a night of hip-hop at Soda Bar.
