Sun, Apr 26 · 8:00 PM·The Sound at Belly Up·143 S Cedros Ave, Solana Beach
One page for everyone going to Sunday's show. Tickets compared (primary vs secondary), music to spin before, a full live concert film, where to eat 5 minutes from the venue, and the parking-and-Uber tactical layer. I work around the corner from this venue — text me before the show if you need anything.
Real talk: The Sound is a Belly Up venue — buying directly through bellyup.com beats both primary and secondary 90% of the time. StubHub only wins when primary's sold out. Always check the box office first.
⚡ Sunday hour-by-hour
Your doors-to-encore game plan.
5:00 PM
Sunset prep at Fletcher Cove ↓
Park there, walk down to the water, watch the tide come in. Sunset 7:34pm Sunday — be on the bluff by 7:15pm.
6:30 PM
Eat at Pizza Port (across the lot) or Lockwood Table
Pizza Port = walk-up casual. Lockwood Table = sit-down date energy. Both 2 min from the door.
7:30 PM
Doors open. Walk in early — get your floor spot.
The Sound is GA standing. The crowd is friendly but the sweet spot is sound-board adjacent. Box office details.
8:00 PM
Devon Gilfillian opens.
Don't be the person who shows up "for the headliner." Devon's vocals are why Cory tours with him.
9:30 PM
Cory Wong + band take the stage.
~95 min set. Expect 3-4 deep cuts you won't recognize but will love. Stay through the encore.
11:15 PM
Out + after-show.
Walk south on Cedros for a quieter Uber pickup. Or hit Lofty Coffee for a wind-down. Lofty Yelp.

"Cory Wong" + "Beastly"
Cory's known for ending with deep funk + a Vulfpeck-flavored encore. Devon Gilfillian sits in for ~3 songs in the back half. Not setlist guaranteed — these are the most-played albums on his current tour.
⚡ Fletcher Cove · 5 minutes north
Watch the sun set before the show.
Fletcher Cove Park is the iconic Solana Beach bluff — 5-min drive north on 101 from The Sound. Park free at the lot, walk down the staircase to the sand, time your sunset (~7:34 PM Sunday), then drive the 5 min back for doors. The pre-show ritual that turns a concert into a night.
Belly Up lot fills early on weekends. Park along Cedros north of Lomas Santa Fe — free street, 2-3 min walk. Or take the Coaster to Solana Beach station ($2-$5).
If you're trying to find your group before the show, sort out parking, swap a ticket, or you just want a face who knows the room — text me. Worst case I tell you which Pizza Port table has the right sightline. 858-461-8054.
One link with tickets + music + video + parking + the after-show plan. Saves them 30 minutes of confusion. One click puts the link in your email — you hit send.
No tracking, no list. Your email app does the work.
