June 25, 2010Barry McGee and Invader in Downtown San Diego
June 23, 2010Late afternoon, yesterday, I went and watched Barry McGee for a few minutes as he prepared for the MCASD’s Viva la Revolución show next month. Can’t wait!
Invader has been busy too…

On my desk: Monocle x Comme des Garçons Scent Two: Laurel
June 18, 2010Laurel is Monocle’s second collaborative scent produced by Comme des Garçons’ perfumer, Antoine Maisondieu. Taking hints from Lebanese fragrance gardens and their hand-crafted laurel soaps, Scent Two atomizes a fresh, clean scent that has warm laurel notes. Available now at Blends (Socal) and Monocle Shops worldwide.

June 17, 2010The Regal Beagle Ale House and All Saints Day at the Casbah
June 17, 2010The Regal Beagle Ale House in Mission Hills had just opened up and a few of us headed over for a few pints. The tap selection was pretty atypical for San Diego — where most ale houses lean towards a west coast IPA-dominated selection. Pretty refreshing though. Its good to see a beer list that most people can appreciate.
En route to the Casbah, we tried to catch the Heavy Hawaii set but managed to get there just as they played their last song. All Saints Day (Vivian Girls/Cat power) was on the last stop of their west coast tour and played a 5-song set that ended with a cover of New Order’s Age of Consent. Definitely excited for their upcoming 7″ on Art Fag Recordings.
