This big, low-slung space is situated under the Echo, but it's a separate venue with a different entrance. The fare is similar to that offered at the Echo: local indie acts, the occasional residency by L.A. luminaries, and touring artists who draw bigger crowds (The Skatalites, Built to Spill). Like the Echo, it can be sweltering when crowded.
Somehow Dookie is three decades old, and even American Idiot—which to elder Green Day fans probably still feels like a recent release—is now 20. The Bay Area-bred rock trio must have seen that single nostalgic tear stream down your cheek, because they’re turned their latest tour, the Saviors Tour, into a full-blown throwback pop-punk fest with support from the Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid and L.A.’s own, the Linda Lindas.
Bowling Green, KY natives Cage the Elephant first found fame (strangely enough) in England, as well as with their showing at SXSW in 2007 and their eponymous debut album released the following year. Their take on classic garage punk is a chaotic listen that draws on psychedelia, ’70s southern rock, glam and contemporary indie: just the thing for a rollicking live show.
