bold = anything that I find interesting, personally

[PassiveTheory]

So... are we getting a South Bay thread too? Or should I just not even bother?

[dorkfish]

Give it a go, if you want. I figure that once it warms up, Big Sur should be getting some more shows.

[PassiveTheory]

Yeah, the Rio usually pulls 2-3 Coachella acts too. They inexplicably had Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes play at the start of the month, but they're pulling in Rogue Wave and Portugal. The Man among other bands. I'll think about it.

East Bay Express' Best of the East Bay party in jack London Square.

On August 6, the East Bay Express celebrates its winners of the 2010 Best of the East Bay readers’ poll and editors’ picks all along the Jack London Square waterfront. Over 20,000 guests are expected to attend and salute the best ideas, products and services that are borne out of the East Bay region.

This year’s Best of the East Bay Party main stage (sponsored by Amoeba Music) will feature twelve local bands: The Mighty Underdogs (made up of Gift of Gab from Blackalicious, Lateef from Latyrx and Headnodic from Crown City Rockers), Everything Must Go, Finish Ticket, Zydeco Flames, The Memphis Murder Men, Belle Monroe and her Brewglass Boys, Kit & the Branded Men, Bang Data, Birds and Batteries, Stone Foxes, Cheetahs on the Moon, and Fans of Jimmy Century.

Make sure to spend some time lounging in the Blues Pavilion (sponsored by the Bay Area Blues Society and Yoshi's), where the Express pays tribute to the venerable blues history of Russell City in Hayward and 7th Street in West Oakland with performances by some of the best blues musicians in the East Bay.

The Chabot Space & Science Center’s Kids’ Party Zone (sponsored by BandWorks and Bay Area Girls Rock Camp) will feature local kid bands The Vat, Poison Apple Pie, and Room 19. Performances are by members of the Bay Area Girls Rock Camp. The Kids’ Party Zone will also offer hands-on science projects and fun activities.

A DJ Stage featuring the talents of Dyloot and the Oakland Faders will evolve into a Dance Battle into the evening (sponsored by Yak Films and The People).

A world class street art show will be found at the event, including live art demonstrations from the East Bay's best artists (sponsored by 57-33 and Montana Cans). At the Gear Head Garage, you can feast your eyes on classic cars, motorcycles, and other works of art that feature gears and grease.

Don't miss the extreme sports, indie designer villages, and local restaurant vendors. It’s sure to be the region’s best party of the year.

I think Cube was charging $50+ for his Fillmore shows and the Regency show (that I believe did not ever happen) I dont think $50 for Cube+Del is unreasonable. Ive just been to the Uptown once but I thought it was a cool "small venue"

[BigBryan]
