Daily Email - Wednesday - 4/1/2026

If you were looking for yesterday’s email – same. I’m choosing to call that an immersive April Fools experience.
Anyway, we’re here now, slightly more self-aware, and this giveaway is real enough to click:

Me? You can trust me. No tricks here: we’re giving away tickets to Billy Strings, who will absolutely turn Pechanga Arena into a full-on jamgrass situation on 9/28. Enter to win y’all!*

Ps. you will get two newsletters today! Lucky us. So, for now, just pretend this email was sent yesterday, hahah. 😅

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • You already know what a $UICIDEBOY$ crowd looks like, now add Shoreline Mafia and Black Kray into that same space. North Island will be doing the most on 10/4…how could you not be there?

  • Whitey Morgan & The 78s lean more dive bar than radio country, and that’s exactly why people stick with them. See these legends live at Belly Up next month!

  • Into the Horizon is back at Waterfront Park 6/27-28, and they just mic dropped their lineup. Tiësto, Martin Garrix, ZHU, Lost Frequencies, and more all stacked across a summer weekend. Chef’s kiss!

  • You don’t really “get into” Al Green; he’s just always been around, somewhere in the background, until suddenly you’re in a full arena on 8/13, realizing how many of those songs stuck.

  • April is starting off strong: check out the rest of the just-announced shows!

WIN STUFF WEDNESDAY

North Park Festival of Beers is taking over El Cajon Blvd this Saturday, April 4, right in front of the Lafayette Hotel. Expect unlimited 2 oz tastings from a stacked lineup of breweries, plus live music throughout the day. It’s an easy daytime hang that turns into something a little more lively as it goes.

A portion of proceeds also supports the San Diego Music Foundation and local school programs!
