Once again, They Might Be Giants took to the stage, their "natural habitat," according to their latest (and only) live album, Severe Tire Damage, which was Rattle & Hum-esque with new studio tracks. Although part of a larger event for downtown San Diego and a short set, the ticket price was worth it just to see this band. Others were Dishwalla, No Doubt, and Edwin McCain. Their usual antics and humor abound. No tests this time, plus it's during the day.
