Ryan Adams // Allah-Las // Jhene Aiko

Good day, Good day #LAskeez will say to the fellow #skeezies. We don't need to tell you what day it is but Thursday is the precursor to the weekend. Which means you need to start it off right and we have just the shows to help you do that. 

Ryan Adams. The man from Jacksonville, North Carolina with a reputation of being rude and difficult to work with will be stopping by the Fox Theater in Pomona. Opening up for him will be the talented Jenny Lewis. If you're not 100% about Ryan Adams, checking the show out to see Jenny open up wouldn't be such a bad idea. Tickets are ranging from $40-50. Doors are at 7pm show at 8pm. We would of included one of Ryan Adam's videos off to the side but we opted for Jenny instead. 

The Allah-Las have sure been keeping busy with continuously performing. They're from LA so how could they not? What makes them even cooler in our book is that they all used to work at Amoeba Records. Anyway for $20 you can watch them rock out at the El Rey Theatre. There's two opening bands by the names of Tashaki Miyaki and Dream Boys. Three bands for $20 and it's all ages show. Its starts at 9pm.

From Pomona to see Ryan Adams/Jenny Lewis to LA where you can catch the Allah-Las, now we're directing you back out to the OC over to the Observatory in Santa Ana. Why? Because the talented Jhene Aiko will be performing. If watching her wasn't an incentive to drive out there, let's add that the Internet will be opening up. That's a good line up!  Don't be too upset if you can't make the drive up there today, they're be playing a show here in LA tomorrow at Club Nokia. 

Hipster-Meca/ Allah-Las/ Ok-Go / City & Colour / Neon Trees

#Skeezies are you still out there?! 

#LAskeez dipped out and over the holiday weekend and took off to the hipster-meca (Portland, Oregon). After meeting a few people the word on Portland is the liquor licenses are dirt cheap BUT you need to serve food as well which is why there's soooo many eateries to choose from. There's a ton of local organic produce that floods the restaurants. Basically, to get a bad meal you really need to go out of your way and search for it. Aside from #LAskeez's stomach expanding, we checked out Multnomah Falls, Cannon Beach, and Powells Book Store (Amoeba of Books). Check out these awesome photos before proceeding to LA stuff.

Now for the LA business! 

Head over to the Santa Monica Pier to see the Allah-Las and Ok-Go for FREE!

    

  

The evenings are getting slightly cooler which would make heading down to the Greek Theatre a nice evening date to see City and Colour. Unfortunately this isn't a free event and will run you about $40-70 big ones. 

A quick drive to Pomona and you can see Phantogram at the Fox Theatre for $30.

Or the Pomona Fairplex to see NeonTrees

So little time so many shows. Pick the one that's right for you and enjoy. 

Echo Park Rising 2014

There's some good shows going on like Grouplove & Portugal The Man along with Tokyo Police Club all at the Greek Theatre TONIGHT.
