Loud guitars, short drives
A few concert-obsessed friends, tired of missing shows, so we built one place to catch them all.
We kept finding out about good shows too late, buried across a dozen venue calendars and ticketing apps. Being software people, we automated the boring part and hand-checked the rest. What’s left is one running list of every gig worth the drive from Orange County.
If it rocks and we can drive to it, it’s here.
What we cover
Rock and everything next door - punk, metal, alt, blues - from stadium shows to back-room clubs. We play to our taste, and our taste runs heavy on 80s rock.
A note on tickets
Rock in the OC doesn’t sell tickets and isn’t affiliated with any venue, promoter, or ticketing company. Every “Tickets” and “More info” link points straight to the official source. Buy where you’d normally buy, and always double-check date and time with the venue.
