Yr Weekend, Abbreviated: Los Skarnales + Second Day Red + Tody Castillo + Die Young + Alice Cooper + More

Sorry, y’all, but I’m afraid this week’s rundown of Good Things to See is going to be bare-bones at best — I’ve spent just under two weeks now getting very little sleep and spending the non-sleeping hours doing the new-parent thing, so I’ve been far from focused on all the cool stuff that’s been going on. Here’s what I think looks good over the next few days:
