Aug. 1-Aug. 8 @ Various venues, Info line: (888) WOLF4LA; stonesthrow.com
If ever there was a week to go big in Los Angeles, this is it. Stones Throw Records’ founder and world-renowned DJ Peanut Butter Wolf ups the ante from last year’s 777 tour by adding a night, and throwing some visual stimulation into the mix.
That’s right, all music video sets, each night a different genre, with no song (or video) repeated. And each club is chosen by PB Wolf, so this is pretty much a guide to his (and potentially, your) favorite L.A. spots.
No need to try and figure out where to go or what to do this week – all of the guesswork is done for you. Go to one night, or be a trooper and hit ’em all, but whatever you do: get there early.
