Hi welcome! Nice to meet you too. My eyes just wandered onto your profile picture, that's outside Lestat's isn't it?
 I love that place, and all
the other music venues in SD.
Not sure if you still consider them all local, but I love Steve Poltz, Gregory Page, Tristan Prettyman. I recently saw Kenny Eng and really liked him too. I
love the SD music scene it is amazing!

In kentucky we have a pretty unique music scene. The local music of kentucky is pretty much bluegrass and old time music and yeah, I'm slowly getting into
the scene more. I play guitar so it's a cool genre for the instrument. I have a really good friend who is really into the local music scene and he and his
entire family play traditional Kentucky music. I think it's great. I'm not as into the twangy stuff, but I'm really into the folkier sound.
There's a local radio show that my friend hosts every Wednesday that I go to a lot. I love the idea of open mic nights though I haven't been to any
yet.

I went there the night Isaac Cheong was back from Australia for awhile! Saw him do a couple of songs too! What a cool place Lestat's is.
I can't
wait to get back to San Diego, it's so magical, I can't explain what it does to me!
And congrats on your that first gig! What kind of music do you guys play? To keep in topic, local music scene here in Australia is AWESOME. I have to plug Broni from Melbourne
Here in Perth, if anyone's interested, check out Schvendes, Saritah, The Panics.... Many more but I just don't remember at the moment.

If you are in San Diego, you should check out Josh Damigo. He has a show at Lestat's this Saturday the 24th with Tori Roze and the Hot Mess which is an
awesome chick rock band.

did you move to australia from san diego, childlikefaith? i dont even know where isaac stays in australia, but do you ever see him over there? i saw him
perform at his CD release show a couple weeks back. i miss having him at lestats! my band pretty much plays pop rock. kind of like old school weezer i guess?
kind of random but i was listening to the radio while driving to work today and 93.3 had the girl who was supposed to play guitar for michael jackson's tour on. i don't remember her name, but she was from australia. she played a few songs and she was awesome! |
