It's no secret that we want GigTown's virtual village to get bigger. The whole vision behind our app is a drive focused on helping to connect, and foster relationships between, the people on the ground making live music happen – both here at San Diego headquarters and of course, in cities all around the U.S. The music industry nowadays is so overloaded with bureaucracy, limitations, and a gatekeeper's mentality, that basic concepts like booking shows, can become a production in and of itself!

Welcome back to another week of Radio Roulette! After taking GigTown Radio for a new spin, Grizzly Business have come up as the next band to land in the airwaves based spotlight!
One of my first jobs was waiting tables at a restaurant in Rancho Bernardo. My boss always treated her employees well - awesome family meals, an end-of-shift drink, and she always stood up for us when we had to deal with a rude customer. She always used to say "I treat my employees the way I want my customers treated." It's true. One could say the same about music venues. Coffee shops, family owned Italian restaurants, beach side bars - Establishments who support their local musicians, are not only good for their own customers, but for the cultural identity of the entire city.
As we've grown to know a number of venues around our own town of San Diego, we've decided to turn our attention to the ones making a conscious effort to promote local music. We'd like to start this series with a very special venue in Encinitas, California called Le Papagayo. It is one of a few establishments in the entire county that hosts live music 7 days a week, and they seem to be doing everything right.
