Seven local bands each take on a single artist for one night, running from System of a Down and Korn through Turnstile, My Chemical Romance, and the punk institution X, with a Hall and Oates set dropped in the middle of all that aggression. Launchpad's stage and PA are genuinely built for this kind of...
San Diego's almost monday plays the kind of bright, guitar-forward indie pop that sounds engineered for the moment a bad week finally ends. Sunshine Theater is a mid-size room that rewards getting there early, because the floor fills fast and the sightlines from the back are genuinely rough. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so...
Every NFL game of the day goes up on the screens inside the Lobo Sports Vault, the dedicated sports room tucked inside one of Nob Hill's most storied buildings, with brunch service from 11 AM to 2 PM. Each game day you attend this season earns a drawing entry for the Super Bowl LXI VIP...
A live flamenco matinee in the tablao format, meaning dancers, a singer, and a guitarist performing together in close quarters rather than on a distant stage. Hotel Albuquerque's space suits this well, the room is small enough that you'll hear the footwork the way it's meant to be heard, percussive and immediate. Performers are still...
Jordan Jonas brings a Halloween-season show to Painted Lady's Brews & Boos series, one of the more genuinely atmospheric stops on the corridor for this kind of event.

Paranormal investigator Cody Polston breaks down the tools, methods, and theory behind ghost hunting in a hands-on master class format, part of Painted Lady's Brews & Boos series leading into...
Saosin brings their mid-2000s post-hardcore catalog to the Sunshine Theatre, one of the better mid-capacity rooms on the corridor for this kind of show. The Sunshine's floor opens up nicely for a crowd that actually wants to move, and this band still draws the people who grew up with those records. Grab tickets in advance;...
Saosin is marking 20 years of their self-titled debut by playing the whole thing, which for a certain generation of post-hardcore listeners is a genuinely significant setlist promise. Sunshine Theater fits this one well, a standing-room floor that gets loud without losing the songs, and this bill pulls hard enough that the room will be...
Sunny Sweeney is a Texas country songwriter with enough honky-tonk credibility and outlaw-adjacent wit to make a room full of skeptics into believers by the second song. Spirit Stage sits right on the Route 66 corridor and tends to reward country acts with a crowd that actually listens. The show starts late (8:30 PM local),...
Token, the Boston rapper who went viral as a teenager and has spent the years since proving that wasn't a fluke, brings his I'm Leaving Soon Tour to Launchpad with...
