So exactly where did the summer go? Oh wait! There\u2019s no need to panic, there\u2019s still a lot of music and fun to be had. Let\u2019s start with Bombay\u2019s 33rd Annual Beach Party which runs Friday through Sunday of Labor Day weekend. Diego always pulls out all the stops with three stages of music including a mechanical bull, and outdoor bar and beer garden. Friday night rock out to the Vonettes, Deep Pockets, Operation 90\u2019s and Mandex; Saturday features a return of Deep Pockets along with Brothers Fortune, Uproots, and Rey Fresco; then Sunday will have Channel, Goodnight Kiss and The Jelly. DJ Erok and DJ Cam will be in the house to help keep the party, plus I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if Diego slipped in another band or two to boot.<\/p>\n

The Ventura Nationals return to Ventura over the Labor Day weekend as well on Saturday, September 2, so if you\u2019re wondering where all the cool hot rods and bikes came from, they came from all over to participate and to be seen. The event is held annually at the Ventura fairgrounds and this year\u2019s music features Deadbolt, The Hubcap Stealers and Poor Man\u2019s Change. There\u2019s also an after party at Discovery that evening with music from Three Bad Jacks and Moonlight Trio.<\/p>\n

Another party to help wrap up the summer is Discovery\u2019s Backyard Bash on Sunday, September 3, featuring Reggae all day long from bands such as Herbal Rootz, Legalizer, Rital Movement, Dirty Rice, Tribal Theory, Hirie, Common Kings and more.<\/p>\n
