January 5 at 6pm
Kelly Brewing Company · Morgan Hill
Test your puzzle skills while sipping Kelly's excellent craft brews. This Monday night tournament brings together beer lovers and competitive minds in a laid-back brewery setting.
Rockridge • $
This neighborhood bar is part arcade, part community hub, with Skee-Ball, Big Buck Hunter, and a rotating lineup of drag shows, karaoke, trivia nights, and movie screenings.
North Beach • $22-$56
A former church turned basement stage where comedy, indie music, and offbeat theater share the spotlight. The room is tiny, the drinks are cheap, and the lineup swings from Netflix-credit comics to participatory sing-alongs.
Buena Vista
Part comic shop, part gallery, part music venue—Art Boutiki is San Jose's quirkiest creative hub. Catch eclectic live shows, browse indie comics and vinyl, or join the monthly Drink & Draw where all ages scribble on butcher paper to soul and surf jams.
Browse the Bay Area neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
