Tonight in L.A. (February 2, 2013)

Keep the first weekend of February moving in the right direction with some old school 45 anthems from Funky Sole at The Echo (free before 11) or the massive electronic sounds of Porter Robinson at Hollywood Palladium.  Speaking of the Palladium...don't sleep on those Justin Timberlake tickets going on sale for Grammy night.  His return will be an epic show I'm sure.



Beyond dance floor action - you can get some throwback soul from Earth Wind & Fire at Fantasy Springs Resort, some lessons in pimping from Too $hort at Canyons, laughs courtesy of Adam Carolla at The Roxy and rock-esque stylings from Gram Rabbit at LA Fort and Dengue Fever at Detroit Bar.
