Anything happening between June 7th-15th.  Book/record store recommendations?

My recommendation would be to go to Tijuana, as I don't think San Diego is all that great (for record stores or general culture).  There's a record shop there that has a lot of rad Latin American psych records that are extremely well priced, especially considering their going rates on ebay/discogs/etc.  Tijuana also has great restaurants and bars, nice people, etc.  I go down about once every six months or so and always find new reasons to return.  Feel free to PM me for hotels recommendations, border crossing tips, etc.

Thanks but I'm house sitting. No road trips.

yeah, wow, I'm pretty sure I saw their first live show ever but unfortunately I have a hard out on Sat.
Any idea how many people this will draw?  The Casbah isnt that big right? Any idea about the openers?
