We won’t act like it isn’t coming. But if you’re feeling pressure, music and theater are here to save the day. Another weekend in San Marcos promises to be entertaining, at least.

A weekend without a good football game after a week of rain? Do not despair. There’s plenty enough to do around here and, if you play your cards right, you’ll get to Monday good and tired.

We’re not crowning a mud queen or tattooing Ringo Starr on our arms, but San Marcos still makes a mark with music and ice cream this weekend.

You can make like Sweden on Christmas Eve and explore the depth psychology of Santa Claus through Donald Duck’s classic interpretation. We’ve also got music this weekend in San Marcos, as always.

The weekend is loaded with theatre, music and holiday lights. It should take your mind off all that holiday shopping and put a song in your heart.

The weekend is bursting with music, books for sale, football, music, Pet Fest, soccer, volleyball, arts, theater and did we mention music?

Carnivals, music, bingo, plays, music, football, soccer, volleyball, a fried chicken dinner, and more music await the happy weekend warrior.

Not many bands in San Marcos that fit the mold of the more boisterous ska or swing sound, but The Organics definitely do. Their songs bring to mind many ’90s bands like 311 or Sublime that took the genre so far.
