Tonight alternative rock band Jane's Addiction will be performing the rather small room at El Cid. Swedish rockers the Sounds are taking over the spacious and recently renovated confines of the Palladium. Local indie rock band West Indian Girl will be continuing their month-long residency at Spaceland. And, lastly, if you're interested tacos and rock, then head over to Señor Fish in Downtown to see the Mormons and the Health Club. But we strongly suggest experiencing Spanish artist El Guincho, who will be emanating feel-good vibes at the Echo.

If you happened to find yourself pushing your way through throngs of vintage Nike-clad hipsters and fedora-and-vested ladies on the Strip Wednesday night then you were probably caught up in the hype surrounding the joint performance between world class DJ-AM and former Blink 182 drummer impresario Travis Barker. With three concerts this summer at the Roxy under the alias TRV$-AM, the unprecedented alliance between rock and dance has forced LA to its knees with a threatening new performance style.

Long Beach is ready to party -- their basketball team is the trendy bracket-buster pick to knock off Tennessee in the first round of the NCAA hoops Tournament. Long Beach students are pumped, ready for a big party at the Acapulco Inn. (Well, they'll party at the AI either way.) But we want to pass along a friendly note to Long Beach students: Regardless of what happens with the game, just remember that things could...

Long Beach’s “World Famous” VIP record store is a West Coast rap landmark — the back room is where Snoop Dogg, Warren G and Nate Dogg were smoking and honing their styles, trying to top each other as part of the group 213, years before they all went solo (and big-time).

There's only one band that matters in rock today. Their music is loud and offensive. They appear to be murdering cartoon characters. They appear to be invading the planet. They're funny and fast and have horrible songs, but you will never go to a Gwar show and come out of the pit unscathed without a smile on your face. Pearl Jam doesn't have the balls to let them open for them which is another...
