The M+M's are definitely Britney and her girls, y'all, but don't blink because they gave San Diego 14 minutes Tuesday and trimmed it down to 12 minutes last night in Downtown Disney, so if you're in the beer line and hear familiar music you should probably, um, get out of line because before you can say hey-shes-lipsynching-while-chewing-gum the show will be over The M+M's (Britney Spears) @ House of Blues Velvet Revolver @ Avalon... more ›

About ten days ago at Spaceland Shapes of Race Cars (not Races Cars, LA Weekly), played with the Binges in a show that even Mummy from The Monster Squad attended and rocked out to. Tonight you'll have to choose which one you want to see, unless of course you're interested in laughing, in which case you might consider Patton Oswalt... or Metal Skool who are known to attract celebs to their shows. After the jump check out the hair band covering Led Zep with the singer from Disturbed and your favorite power forward, Dennis Rodman. more ›

It was either 1986 or '87. LAist was living in Inglewood within walking distance of the Fabulous Forum. We were young and impressionable. We had heard of the legend of "Clapton is God", but we were also fascinated by a new guy named Robert Cray who was just breaking into the scene with a blues tune that was actually getting played on MTV - something unheard of unless your name was Stevie Ray. So we walked down to the Forum, bought some tickets for face value from the box office and sat in the very back of the arena. Cray's set was damn good and we thought, ok British legend, let's see what you've got. And let's just say that even in the back row of the Forum, this would-be blogger was so completely blown away that we too followed suit and scribbled "Clapton is God" in the men's room, which we are certain will be repeated late tonight after the former Cream guitarist converts some new blood. more ›
