Johnny's Saloon... if you love dark bars, great bartenders, Johnny Cash, Rock'n Roll and cheap booze.. this is the place to be.
I just love coming here when I'm in OC. My friend Chris works here every Thursday, and this is the night they set the bar on fire to Johnny Cash' "Ring of Fire"... it's ...

Cantina is a fairly new bar around the corner from Union Square. It has amazing cocktails. It's hard to spot- look for a big pirate logo sign on a glass door. It's a small space but it somehow seems open and colorful. When we went, it was early for a Saturday night and there were a couple of stools ...

Ok this is not really travel related, but I still wanted to write about it. My boys are 11 and (almost) 13. They are at the in between age for Christmas morning. They still have the wonder and excitement that comes with opening unknown packages. It is so much fun to watch their faces as the rip (pic...

If you're looking for a fun night full of laughs, definitely check out this show! Snow White searches for her true love on a crazy journey of musical parodies and outrageously giant hats. Definitely one of the funniest things I've ever seen! A must see every time you visit because it changes all ...

Los Angeles is, and rightfully so, a tourist mecca and should be seen by all. Parts of the city though seem to appear silent underneath the heavy heavy hysteria of life in the city that makes stars.
As Sam Goldman said "God makes stars, it's our job to find them". In the middle of one of those ty...

Hey! Hey! Hey! Okay, so every year on April 27-29 (this was the first time it was a three day thing) hundreds of thousands of people gather under the scorching heat of the California sun to hear hundreds of bands play on multiple stages in the polo fields of Indio. I first heard about it last year, ...

This is a music festival in San Francisco held annually on the weekend closest to September 11th. It's a free festival put on by Michael Franti in Speedway Meadows of Golden Gate Park. Several genres of music are featured, but the performers tend to mostly be jam bands and socially concious rap grou...

If you are in San Diego and aren't sure what to do, then I would recommend checking out On Broadway (www.obec.tv). This is a mega club with 5 different rooms. I was there for Halloween and it was insane! There had to be 2,000+ people there. Attached are some pictures of the club. Enjoy!

Cardrooms are legal in California, and if you get a chance to stop by LA, you should definitely check out the Commerce or the Bike. However, if you're in the Bay area, The Bay 101 is definitely the place to go. They offer a variety of table games including black jack and Pai Gow, but if poker is you...

Despite being named "Bimbos", this is probably the classiest medium-sized music venue I've been to the Bay Area. It's definitely a lot nicer than most venues that are the same price range and size. It has a 1930s Art Deco jazzy feel to it and it's decorated with lots of red, oak, statues, and plants...

The Catalyst is definitely the most fun venue of all of the ones I've been to in Santa Cruz. It is near and dear to my heart because I've seen many great shows here, watched my friends perform here and even performed here once! They have a broad variety of genres and local as well as national groups...

The location is in SD but going north bound towards LA. If you enjoy local bands as well,,, you will love the Belly Up. The food cost ...
