numbskull shows by DoroTheExplorer
Since SLO is halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles on Highway 101, it seems like a lot of the smaller bands play through here. However, there aren?t many venues in this town where shows can be held. One popular location, The Dwelling, was shut down a little while ago. Still, there are some okay places to catch a show.Numbskull Shows (one local promoter) puts on punk-, emo- and indie-type shows?they have been bringing in independent hip-hop groups more frequently in recent years too. Bands that I?ve seen come through in recent years include Pretty Girls Make Graves, si*se, Flogging Molly, Bad Religion, the Hieroglyphics, The Aquabats, The Ataris, etc. Check the Numbskull website for a schedule of upcoming shows and for links to tickets. (Make sure you look at the SLO shows, as Numbskull promotes lots of shows all around Central California.)
