Sam Smith @ The Greek

#LAskeez including all #skeezies are back at it--yes, it's Monday and that means four more days until another deserving weekend. Last night at the Hollywood Bowl the Pixies and Cat Power put on one heck of a show. Gogo whatever (Gogol Bordello) was also in the line up but to be quite honest is kinda boring and not fitting next to the other two bands.  For the fun of it let's watch a quick Pixies music video before we get into today's evening top pick show.

                                             Sam Smith.
                                           

 #LAskeez was fortunate to see Sam Smith at the Troubadour December of 2013. It was the exact same day he was signed to Capital Records and he was ecstatic to show his talents to the world. His music set was extremely short do to his lack of songs but nothing short of amazing. Definitely the best $15 spent during the holiday season.

Not even a whole year later and Sam Smith is performing two sold out nights at the Greek Theatre. A single ticket is reselling up to $200! If you were one of the lucky #skeezies to score some tickets, you are in for a treat--especially if this is the first time seeing him.

#LAskeez was drawn to Sam Smith after the first 2 seconds of hearing this song.

OH and the Dodgers beat the +Colorado Rockies 5-10 yesterday.

The Boys in Blue were having fun as Juan Uribe switched his jersey to Don Mattingly's #8 and then into a Tommy Lasorda #2. 

When you're winning it sure is easy to have fun. 

First game of the playoffs is this Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals.

James Brown // ReignWolf

Two shows are sticking out to #LAskeez tonight.

Let's start with the bigger venue first. 

At the Hollywood Bowl the James Brown "Get On Up" celebration is taking place. Special guests from D'Angelo to Aloe Blacc will be giving tribute to James Brown. The show starts at 8pm and tonight will be a perfect evening for a picnic basket, a light blanket, and the willingness to taking in the Bowl scenery while listening to a little James Brown. Get on up and go!  

James Brown

For $15 over at the Troubadour, ReignWolf will take the stage to rock out. This guy is from Canada, moved to Seattle and is now in West Hollywood at one of the most intimate venues to date. 
Listen to this.

The Dodgers beat the Atlanta Braves again 4-2.
If they continue to play as they have the last two games against the Braves, they should have no problem sweeping the series against them tonight at 4:10pm. 

Sea Wolf--The Sayers Club

It's midweek and #LAskeez like all the #skeezies are itching for the weekend. 

If you missed Ok Go yesterday at the Troubadour, they will be bringing their antics over to the Echo tonight for a whooping $20 admission fee. 

The place to be tonight is The Sayers Club for Sea Wolf.

The price of admission is $3 with rsvp. $12 Without. If you're not 21+ don't bother showing up. That always eliminates half of all the concert selfies. Good or bad thing, you decide. Regardless this should be an awesome show. 

Our beloved Dodgers couldn't beat the Pittsburgh Pirates last night and lost 7-12. Womp womp. It's okay they have the opportunity to win the series today as they play them yet again at 4:05pm. 

Ok Go!--Troubadour

It's one of those Tuesday were the shows repeat themselves. BOoooring. 

Lady Gaga is performing yet again for her little monsters at the Staples Center. 

Alice Cooper and Motley Crue are jumping venues from the Bowl to the Verizon Theatre. 

Everyone needs to make that cash money some how and WERK.

But to write about them twice in a row is repetitive so let's talk about OK GO. Yeah that band that will forever be known for their treadmill choreography. 

OK GO

They will be playing at the Troubadour for $20 a ticket. 

It may be worth the price of admission if they decided to set up the treadmills. But really if they spend as much time on their concert set as they do with their music videos, the #skeezies should be in for a treat. 

#LAskeez will be tuning into the Dodger game as they play the Pittsburgh Pirates again. They had an impressive win against them yesterday 5-2 and hopefully today's game is similar.
