HAPPY AUTUMN EQUINOX!!! 🍁

The universe apparently heard “first day of fall” and got a little too literal because I fell off a Pilates reformer this morning.

In front of everyone. Cool cool cool.

Before you blame my coordination, THE CORD SNAPPED. I would like that entered into the official record. I survived physically, but my dignity is currently somewhere underneath reformer #4.

Nothing like a little public humiliation to remind you that comedy is mostly just tragedy with better timing.

Speaking of: John Mulaney brings Mister Whatever to Pechanga Resort Casino on 10/15 and, you guessed it.. I’m giving away a pair of tickets!!! Enter to win.

At least when he embarrasses himself in front of a room full of people, it’s on purpose. 

JUST ANNOUNCED

• A little folk, a little psych, a little “perhaps I should rethink my entire life.” Rayland Baxter is headed to The Observatory on 3/2. Seems healthy!

• The Internet’s Syd is stepping back into the spotlight with the BEARD Tour, bringing her ridiculously smooth R&B to The Observatory on 11/16. Act accordingly.

• The Creepy Creeps have been waiting all year for their band name to reach maximum relevance. Catch them with Mistress 77, Widows + Rey Wolf at the Casbah on Halloween.

• Watching My Hero Academia at home is cool. Watching its eight-season journey unfold with anime visuals and a 15-piece live band is considerably cooler. Win tickets for 9/26!*

• + the rest of September’s just announced shows so far!

SHARING MUSIC IS A LOVE LANGUAGE OF OURS

Forget the five love languages. There’s a secret sixth one, and it’s aggressively sending people songs you think they’ll like. Here’s what the DoSD team has been passing around lately.

IN THE FUTURE

LOCALS ONLY

• Another one for the job seekers: City Heights hosts a Job & Resource Fair on 10/3 with employers, career opportunities + local support services all in one place. RSVP here.

• A little good news from downtown: Father Joe’s Villages has added 33 affordable single-room occupancy units, offering private rooms with shared common facilities. Residents started moving in this week.
