Which SoCal Show Should Close Out Your Summer?
August might be halfway over but Socal ravers know that our summer doesn’t stop until Thanksgiving. Whether you’ve partied ‘til dawn since May; or are on a mission to cure some serious FOMO contracted by watching too many live streams from home this summer, SoCal has a smorgasbord of shows coming up to quench your raving thirst. So many in fact, there is no way to make it to them all, (unless you’ve secretly invented a teleportation device, in which case, let’s talk) so we’ve broken down the deets for each show.
