http://www.delmarscene.com/concerts

7/26 - Fitz and the Tantrums
7/27 - Sammy Hagar & The Wabos
7/28 - Los Tucanes de Tijuana
8/2 - Iration

8/17 - Weezer
8/23 - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
8/30 - Special Guests TBA
8/31 - Ziggy Marley

I am looking at the website and it says you can purchase entry for $6, but if you show up after the start of the last race it is $20 to get into the concert. You can buy the $6 tickets in advance, but what happens if you buy the $6 ticket and show up after the start of the last race? What was it like last year?

[Sushov23]

You'll have to pay.

[westcoastpirate]

You'll have to pay.

What time does the last race typically start before a 4pm show?

[Sushov23]

Races start at 4 if I remember correctly, and the bands usually play at 7pm. I'm not 100 percent sure because me and my friends used to show up early and bet on horses and get drunk. We would always lose track of time, and went with the flow. Watching the races is actually fun.

Cool, thanks.

Anyone been to Humphrey's Backstage Live on Shelter Island? Shitshow or wot? My hotel is a couple blocks away and thought might check her out this weekend.

Ruby Room closing down apparently?

[PJandBompton]

Ruby Room closing down apparently?

yup.

[Sushov23]

August 23rd(YYY's day), now says special guests. I wonder if they had to take it down because of FYF, or if YYY's canceled.

[PulpOne]

Ruby Room closing down apparently?

They're moving it to North Park. Owners are splitting up.

August 23rd(YYY's day), now says special guests. I wonder if they had to take it down because of FYF, or if YYY's canceled.

I emailed Chris Bahr (Director of Events/Promotions for the Del Mar Race Track) and this was his reply:
"For the time being, we have withdrawn their name due to promotional conflicts. However, we still expect them to perform on Aug. 23."

Hmm ... maybe I'll ask him who the other special guest is the following week.

[zeppelin77]

Looks like the YYY gig is falling apart.
I emailed him again late this afternoon about the Special Guest for Aug 30:
"FYI- We are now unsure if Yeah Yeah Yeahs will play… The dates of August 23 and 30
are open with the possibility of Yeah Yeah Yeahs either day"

Sounds like they don't have a firm commitment from the YYYs. I think their FYF gig is still a go.

[Sushov23]

That is shitty. I'm guessing there is a conflict with FYF.

[Nealocus]

Don't worry, the YYYs will play.

[westcoastpirate]

I'll be in town from Aug 15th-18th, and I see there is something called Indiefest taking place at Liberty Station. It says Talib Kweli, Cake, and Best Coast are headlining, but the website is pretty much useless for info. Does anyone know more about this event? What does it cost to get in, etc?

[Nealocus]

8/16 gates open @5pm and it goes from 6p-11p. 8/17 gates open @ 1p and it goes from 2p-11p. It's all ages and prices are TBA.

[andrew86]

Anybody got face value tickets for Kendrick on Friday?

[westcoastpirate]

8/16 gates open @5pm and it goes from 6p-11p. 8/17 gates open @ 1p and it goes from 2p-11p. It's all ages and prices are TBA.

Sounds like the perfect event to go day drinking in OB on Friday Aug 16th then hit the show after. Do you know who the headliners are each day?

[Gigger]

Did you catch them at Coachella?

They were my favorite set of the weekend. Bonobo is playing hob as well. Octobers going to be a good month.

[chipzdelux]

anyone see RX bandits last night at HOB? amazing show. they played all of resignation and 4 or 5 songs off ...and the battle begun.

for techno fans, christian martin and worthy in oceanside, ca on july 19th. tickets are 15 bucks!

[gazercmh]

Going to see Adam Ant at the Balboa Theater next week. Haven't seen him in ages, really looking forward to it.

[getbetter]

Adam Ant was great at 4th and B last October.....and I shocked because that venue is horrible.

[gazercmh]

I bought a ticket for that show when it was originally scheduled for earlier in the year, like February. Then when it was postponed I held onto my ticket, then somehow forgot all about the show and didn't remember until a month afterward. So I had a ticket and didn't go. I was so bummed.
