Killswitch Engage, Anthrax – House of Blues San Diego
Metalcore band Killswitch Engage first rose to prominence with their 2004 album, The End of Heartache. They’ll play with NYC-based metal band, Anthrax. More info.

Lana Del Rey, Kali Uchi – Valley View Casino
Recent press coverage of Lana has mostly been about her dispute with Radiohead. (They’re claiming Lana’s song “Get Free” is a little too similar to “Creep.”) Despite this, we’re sure plenty of fans will flock to Valley View for Lana Del Rey’s cinematic dreamy pop. More info.
