Three of my favorite ’80s bands — Til Tuesday, The Go-Go’s, New Order — are playing at the Cruel World festival May 17 in Pasadena. I purchased a ticket package the first day they were available.
The Los Angeles Sparks and their new head coach are the Golden State Valkyries’ inaugural night opponent on May 16. I purchased a ticket for that on the first day they were available, too, while the schedule was TBD.
The hotel in Pasadena has me checking in at 4 p.m., but I’ve yet to find a flight out of SFO later than 9 p.m. I certainly don’t want to drive post-game.
I have to admit it’s a good problem to have, thought it’s indeed a cruel world.
