Street Scene, San Diego’s ultimate Block Party, returns to the Gaslamp this year with an electrifying line up of bands.
Arguably the country’s largest annual rock festival, Street Scene is a multiple day, multiple stage musical celebration like no other. 40 Bands will perform on one of four stages over two nights in the heart of downtown San Diego. Bands that have played at past Street Scenes include R.E.M., Snoop Dogg, Patti Smith, Cypress Hill and the B-52s; not to be outdone, this year’s Street Scene features Beck and The Black Crows.
With its return to downtown San Diego, Street Scene 2008 is gearing up to be better than ever. This year’s all-ages music celebration will be set in the streets of San Diego’s East Village, adjacent to Petco Park. This location not only returns the Block Party to its downtown roots, but also offers multiple nearby parking options as well as easy access by trolley.

Street Scene 2008 takes place on Friday, September 19 and Saturday, September 20, 2008. Doors open at 4:00 pm; shows end at midnight. This is an all-ages event.
Two Day General Admission Passes to Street Scene are on sale now at a special reduced price. Get your passes now before the price increases.

Stu Segall Productions - former home to cult teen drama/mystery show Veronica Mars starring Kirsten Bell - is currently filming Fox Television’s The Ex List starring Alexandra Breckenridge. The Ex List is scheduled to premier on CBS this Fall.
To support its ongoing projects, Stu Segall Productions (via its exclusive casting arm Background San Diego) will be holding an Open Casting Registration for Extras on Saturday, August 16, 2008 from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm at the Stu Segall Productions studio, located at 4705 Ruffin Road, San Diego, CA, 92123.
If you are interested in the Open Extras Casting Call and are planning on attending, here are a few recommendations:
- Bring some water and a hat or umbrella to stay cool while you are waiting in line; the wait can be long and you will be required to line up outside
- Bring headshots, if you wish. If you are willing to do beach scenes, also bring a photo of yourself in swimwear. You will be asked to leave the headshots behind for your file, so make sure you have extras
- Bring a pen and a clipboard
- Pre-register on the website and be prepared to fill out the same information on a hard copy in person during the Open Registration
- Check the website or call the recorded hotline at (858) 974-8970 the night before to make sure that it has not been cancelled

For more information about the Open Extras Casting, call the prerecorded hotline at (858) 974-8970 ext. 477.
