Tonight in Rock in LA - Cannibal Corpse, The Nymphs
Alice in Chains @ Wiltern - You gotta take your hat off to a band who loses their irreplaceable singer and... replaces him. So you take your hat off, steal the shoe off of some passed-out fratboy soaking in his own puke, put the shoe in the hat, and throw it at the band. Fucking Zeppelin didn't regroup after they lost their fucking drummer, wtf is this shit? If the City employees who were striking yesterday still have their signs and feel like bitching, please congregate at the corner of Wilshire and Western tonight.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
