Daily Email - Tuesday - 9/16/2025

This week’s giving heatwave, storm surge, and seasonal confusion. Is it still summer? Is time even real?

Let’s anchor it with something better: free tickets to Joshua Tree Music Festival. 10/9–10/12. Think barefoot dancing, genre-melting sets, and full-soul resets under the stars. We're giving away 4-day passes + car camping. Go get your dust and groove on.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • CRSSD After Dark has arrived. Late-night sets, dark rooms, no sleep. Presale hits Friday. Leftovers drop Monday. You know the drill.

  • Dream Theater is storming Frontwave Arena on 10/4 with mind-bending prog metal, fan-favorite deep cuts, and new tracks from their chart-topping album Parasomnia. Want in on the madness? Win tickets now.*

  • Five nights of costumes, DJs, and drink deals. San Diego Zombie Crawl takes over the Gaslamp with one loaded “Hunting Permit.”

  • Kurtis Conner’s Goodfellow World Tour hits Balboa Theatre on 10/5. Expect sharp-as-hell jokes, absurd bits, and the exact kind of chaos you want from the guy who blew up YouTube. Tickets are flying – get yours fast!*

TRIBUTE SHOWS AROUND SAN DIEGO

There’s no shame in chasing the hits – especially when tribute bands do them this damn well. We pulled together the best coming to SD, from ABBA by the bay to Bob Marley at House of Blues.

Get your nostalgia fix and sing like it’s the real thing.

IN THE FUTURE

🦮 Annual Doggie Street Festival
