What's going on in San Jose this week? How 'bout the week after?

Looking for an event guide for San Jose!

I'm looking for a good online listings for the San Jose/Silicon Valley area and I guess the bay area in general. I've just moved here and since I'm a pretty big music, movies and arts fan, I'm trying to find a guide that lets me know in a nice direct way what's going on this week, where the good gigs are and also what people are listening to/watching etc. Back in Dublin I'd use The Ticket as my event guide so I guess I'm looking for something similar! Much thanks.

Try citysearch, or the sfgate entertainment section.

I can't say how up-to-date or cool it is, but you can check http://events.mercurynews.com/

I think Bandega is exactly what you want. It's a gig guide, with reviews, focused on the Bay Area. And you can set up alerts for artists you're particularly interested in.

The Metro is the South Bay's weekly paper.

San Jose Events from Yelp

I love Yelp, great place with reviews for just about everything under the sun and an event page as well.
