Losanjealous Concert Picks: August 28 - September 3

By Ron - Monday August 28th 2006

Visit our concert calendar for a full show list, links to buy tickets and our top picks.

PICK OF THE WEEK: The Little Radio Casino Convoy

$50 gets you a complimentary breakfast, luxury coach ride with free booze to Vegas, and a concert with full sets from The Secret Machines, Autolux and Giant Drag. And it’s Vegas so it’s really a free ticket. Just go to the blackjack table and bet $50. If you lose just keep doubling your previous bet until you win. Trust me.

Reminder: check your ATM withdrawal limit beforehand
Reminder #2: after midnight your ATM limit is reset

Win Tickets to see The Format w/ Rainer Maria & Anathallo @ Avalon This Thursday, August 31

That Foo Fighters concert is acoustic, I believe, and well worth going to. I just saw them Friday night in Chicago, and they were damn good (so was Frank Black, for that matter).

How could you forget about Jeremy Enigk at the Troubadour? It was as great show!
