Tonight in L.A. (December 22, 2012)

Its not an ordinary Saturday night this 22nd...because you've got no work on Monday and Tuesday most likely, which means the turn up can get extra real. 

 If you need a little musical guide - we strongly recommend G Pen Presents a TI$A Christmas Party with Cam'Ron, Problem, Casey Veggies, Overdoz and TY$ + special guests.  Trill.  Dope.  G.  All accurate descriptions of what will ensue at 5176 Santa Monica Blvd.

Dillon Francis spearheads a beatdown at El Rey Theatre - but its sold out, so good luck getting in.  No great substitute exists, but Infected Mushroom will keep the Avalon's dancefloor pulsating and Chuck Inglish and Jack Dvy provide a good soundtrack for a night at The Central SAPC.

Mickey Avalon gets weird and raunchy at Saint Rocke, Funky Sole keeps eastsiders old school half stepping at The Echo and Tenacious D evokes laughter at Largo.  A complete list of Saturday night entertainment in L.A. is below...
