Workingman’s bassist and member of the Minutemen, fIREHOSE, and the Stooges, Watt leads Mike Watt & the Missingmen, a punk, old school 90s indie rock trio with some heaviness mixed in. Did I mention Mike Watt? What are you waiting for? For dinner, The Stanton Social has earned a reputation for being a beautifully designed restaurant/lounge while serving up some delicious multi-ethnic cuisine. For drinks, a favorite of mine is The Magician, this bar’s chill atmosphere just may be the cure for a well-earned night of rocking. A great way to end the night? Stop by The Pink Pony. This boho café has been serving French food and coffee since the 80s and has a relaxing vibe. It’s as punk as that neighborhood gets nowadays.
