Lady Gaga --Alice Cooper & Motley Crue

So Lady Gaga will be at the Staples Center tonight but who cares?

No really who cares? 

Apparently there's still "Little Monsters" around supporting her fizzling career. She does put on an amazing visually stimulating show, so if she sticks to the classics it may something worth watching. Ticket sales didn't do too well so #skeezies can go on Stubhub to snag a ticket for $42 or maybe less as the concert approaches. 

Alice Cooper & Motley Crue will be performing at the Hollywood Bowl which should be lovely. The weather here in LA has been close to perfect so why wouldn't anyone not want to jam out on a nice summer evening?!

Rock out!

Don't forget the Dodgers will be playing the Pittsburgh Pirates tonight at 4:05pm.

Friday Flights and Summer Nights

Alas the weekend is here! 

Now what to do? 

Never fear #skeezies, #LAskeez has just the thing. 

School Night and the Ace Hotel Present Summer School.

Don't worry there aren't any lectures here.

It's a 3 day crash course event consisting of DJs, poolside, and rooftops. Specifically on Saturday De Lux will perform live in the Amigo Room. Hope the #skeezies have their summer bods ready. KCRW DJ Chris Douridas will be spinning some summer jams as well. Go out tonight or any time between now and Sunday Funday. 

 

Never got your summer bod ready? It's alright, it's Friday Flights at the Getty! No Age will be there with 3 experimental performances. 

No Age

Sounds "artsy". It's a FREE event from 6-9pm. Music, art, visuals, and "local beer and bites" now if that's not worthy of checking out who knows what is?!

The withdraws will stop today. Dodger baseball will resumes at 5:15. The Dodgers will play in St. Louis against the Cardinals.

This should hopefully be an easy win but tune in just to double check. 

 

DineLA --Bad Religion/ X / Legend

All #skeezies have to eat so why not make it interesting by checking out new places. 

DineLA this summer is from July 14-27th. It's when participating restaurants set up a prix-fixe menu with their best dishes to impress and get the patrons back. Make sure to take advantage of the awesome promotion during lunch or dinner. Lunches can range from $15-25 and dinners from $25-45.

After a little DineLA action, there's a few shows #skeezies can go check out. Bad Religion and X will be playing a show together at the Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa. It's a drive but come on it's Bad Religion. 

 

If you don't rock out like #LAskeez does, there's always the John Legend show over at the San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino that the #skeezies can catch. The venue is a tad far but his voice may definitely be worth the drive for many. 

 

An Evening at Hollywood Bowl or Reggae Night at the Echo

Pleasant days turn into pleasant evenings.

Today is is no exception of this. 

#LAskeez would most certainly have to recommend heading over to the Hollywood Bowl to see Boz Scaggs play the guitar tonight. 

Typical evening at the Bowl 

If you just want to dance to some reggae then head over to the Echoplex. Every Wednesday is the Dub Club with DJ Tom Chasteen. 

Life is feeling a little empty without some Dodger Baseball but don't worry #skeezies the withdraws will stop when baseball resumes back on Friday. The Dodgers performed very well yesterday during the All-Star game. Kershaw and Greinke both pitched awesome innings. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough for the National League to win. Had one of our boys in blue pitched more than one inning, the outcome would of definitely been different. Oh well there's always next year. 

  

Jessica Hernandez & The Deltas

According to #LAskeez, there's not a whole lot of shows going on tonight but tomorrow evening at The Echo,  Jessica Hernandez and The Deltas will be performing. 

They're from Detroit and they certainly have their own thing going on. Give them a listen and who knows, it might be the best ten bucks you have ever spent for a show. 

The Dodgers easily swept the San Diego Padres yesterday and now take a break for the All-Star game. Yasiel Puig will be representing the boys in blue during the Home Run Derby tonight at 5pm. 

De Lux / Warpaint / Basement Jaxx

Last nights Free shows might have you #skeezies wanting more and you're in luck. If for whatever reason you missed De Lux over at the Hammer Museum it's okay, they will playing another Free show over in Long Beach at The Pike at Rainbow Harbor. It's moment's like this that you sometimes just can't pass up.

The lovely ladies of Warpaint will be performing tonight with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds over at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall. Tickets range from $20-80. 

#LAskeez would be more inclined to pay to see Basement Jaxx instead over at the 333 Live for $20-25 big ones. 

Basement Jaxx

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (even Warpaint) can be a little too slow so pick up the tempo and get your little feet moving to Basement Jaxx. If you don't go to this show...where's your head at? 

There's always that wonderful option of opting out of shows and catching a Dodger game. They play the San Diego Padres again at 7:10pm.  There were a lot of disgruntled fans who didn't receive their Hello Kitty Travel Mug giveaway last night. Some received vouchers, others received nothing.  Kershaw ended his scoreless streak of 41 innings last night. The crowd gave him a standing ovation for his amazing performance. Luckily the Dodgers won 2-1 and will get another W tonight. 

Cults / James SuperCave / De Lux --FREE shows

One of the best things to look forward to during summer are the free shows. 

#Skeezies can catch a good solid show literally everywhere and anywhere--near the beach, DTLA, Hollywood, you name it. 

Today is one of those days. 

Two great shows for FREE!

Cults
 

A two piece band from New York know as the Cults, will be taking over the Twilight Concert Series at the Santa Monica Pier. Sounds like the perfect evening if you ask #LAskeez. An evening on Santa Monica Pier with the perfect summer night breeze is already magical as it is but when you add the sounds of the Cults, well take a date to impress. 

OH Yeah and James Supercave will be there performing on the Pier as well! What a line-up. 

Okay so maybe you're anti the outdoors. It's okay because there happens to be a cool indoor show going on. 

De Lux

Over at the Hammer Museum TONIGHT, De Lux will be performing a little something something for FREE. 

They're two youngish dudes that went to high school together, they're from Glendale and they're good at making music. If you're better at making time, make time for this show tonight by any means necessary. 

You can always ditch all the Free shows and go to the Dodger   game to watch them play the San Diego Padres. Kershaw will be pitching and today is the Hello Kitty travel mug giveaway. Perfect to take when you're on the go and need to represent the Dodgers.
