Simi Valley, Ventura County's party central? Who knew? Are they having a festival every weekend over there? Seems like, and why not? This weekend's can't miss wingding -- the Simi Valley Fair & Music Festival at Rancho Simi Park -- is actually going on as you read these words.

Head over tonight and you can hear the Grammy-winning Latin jazz sounds of Poncho Sanchez. Saturday's got a rootsier vibe going on, with Cajun rockers Hot Roux and zydeco star Lisa Haley. On Sunday, it's an all-blues lineup, including the Laurie Morvan Band and Ventura legends the R&B Bombers.
