Don\u2019t have a resolution for the New Year yet? Here, I\u2019ve got one for you: Go to more shows. To get you started, here are five of the best shows coming up during the next two weeks. <\/i><\/p>\n

25 Years of The Casbah @ The Birch North Park Theatre<\/b>
\n8 p.m., Thursday, January 23<\/b>
\n$10 \u2013 30<\/b>
\ncasbahmusic.com<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

Alright, so this is cheating since it isn\u2019t exactly a show, but this will still be a great event for fans of local music. Casbah founder Tim Mays will be joined by a bunch of guests, musical and otherwise, to explore the history of arguably San Diego\u2019s most famous venue. Did you know January 14 was proclaimed Casbah Day by the City?<\/p>\n

Gloomsday, Pheasants, Chess Wars, Shovel @ The Tower Bar<\/b>
\n9 p.m., Friday, January 24<\/b>
\n$5<\/b>
\nthetowerbar.com<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

I saw Gloomsday a little while back at the Ch\u00e9 and was very impressed. With a two-piece set up and \u201cdoom pop\u201d sound, it\u2019s the perfect band to see at The Tower. Couple the fact there\u2019s a group of solid openers with the probability that this show won\u2019t be more than a few bucks and you have yourself a great night.<\/p>\n

Forever Came Calling, Africats @ House of Blues, San Diego<\/b>
\n7 p.m., Friday, January 24<\/b>
\n$12<\/b>
\nhouseofblues.com<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a part of me that still loves angsty pop-punk, and seeing how Title Fight got a spot playing Coachella this year, I\u2019m apparently not alone. Forever Came Calling is not one of the bigger bands in that scene, but they\u2019re definitely one of my favorites.<\/p>\n

Ultra Bide`, The Steinbacks @ Til-Two Club<\/b>
\n9 p.m., Friday, January 24<\/b>
\n$8<\/b>
\ntiltwoclub.com<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

While this is already a packed night, this is one show you might be bummed you missed. Ultra Bide` is an old-school \u2014 we\u2019re talking late \u201870s here \u2014 alt-punk band hailing from Japan. Their sound is a familiar one, though that\u2019s because they\u2019re one of its pioneers. According to their latest press-release, they\u2019re \u201cBack into OLD SCHOOL to NEW SCHOOL to JUST PUNK ART ROCK to Blow Up your L & R Braines!\u201d If that doesn\u2019t sound fun, I don\u2019t know what does.<\/p>\n

Reggie and The Full Effect, Dads, Pimento @ Soda Bar<\/b>
\n7:30 p.m., Wednesday, January 29<\/b>
\n$13.50 advance \/ $16 day of show<\/b>
\nsodabarmusic.com<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

While it\u2019s rad that Reggie is back from an extended hiatus, I\u2019ll be at this one seeing two-piece twinkly group Dads. Noodly guitars and songs like \u201cIf Your Song Title Has The Word \u2018Beach\u2019 In It I\u2019m Not Listening To It\u201d followed by \u201cGet to the Beach!\u201d make these guys one of my favorites from Midwest-emo revival scene.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
