Happy Monday, friends.

Quick favor: if you saw Chris Stapleton this weekend, maybe keep that information to yourself for... emotional reasons. I couldn't make it happen, and my FOMO has been working overtime ever since.

Now I'm looking at the rest of July and wondering how any of us are supposed to keep up. Pride. Comic-Con. Huge concerts. I'm not totally sure how we're supposed to do it all, but YOLO, I guess.

Since the calendar's already filling up, let's skip ahead to the holidays. Trust me, future you will appreciate it: the queens of holiday cheer are back: BenDeLaCreme and Jinkx Monsoon bring The Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Show to Balboa Theatre on 12/29. Tickets on sale Friday. Enter now.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

• Founded in a tiny Oklahoma town, Turnpike Troubadours helped turn Red Dirt country into a national movement. Catch the legends at Petco Park on 10/15.

• Weedeater has been melting faces since the late '90s, and they show no signs of slowing down. Feel the heat at Casbah on 9/28 with Royal Thunder and Yes Ma'am.

SAN DIEGO NEWS UPDATES AND JOB OPPORTUNITIES

Turns out following half of San Diego on Instagram has its perks.

My algorithm is constantly feeding me local news, job openings, volunteer opportunities, and community updates that deserve a little more attention.

Instead of keeping them to myself, I'm putting them all in one place for you…You're welcome. 😘
