Eight Gigs: KilVega
Fri., April 1, 7:30 p.m., The Boardwalk, $15
If you graduated from high school sometime between the mid-’90s and the early 2000s, track down a men’s necktie and get ready to repurpose it as a belt, because Friday night is about to bring you back: KilVega is DJ Kilmore of Incubus and Sergio Vega, bassist for the Deftones. Their mixtape Double Fantasy samples a mix of mainstream and non: Drake, Young Dro, Rae Sremmurd, 2 Chainz. Does it make me sound super-old to describe it as a lot of … fun? Fine. But the members of KilVega got a little older too, and so what if we’ve all outgrown pretending to love super-obscure deejay sets? 9426 Greenback Lane in Orangevale, www.mixcloud.com/KILVEGA.
