Not many people can actually say they came to San Francisco and got a sunburn. But, we aren't normal people. While busking down on the Embarcadero at Pier 39, we all got a little bit scorched. It was 80 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Just a wonderful day to be out in the city. Busking went okay, after I managed to find a parking spot. Lot's of people out and about due to the weather. We also happend upon an Irish fellow who bought a CD and then came out to our show at the Plough & Stars. Bit by bit, we're taking over the world.
The show at the Plough & Stars was excellent. It was nice to have some ability to turn up and rock out a bit. People were quite receptive to our brand of Americana, we had a blast. We also played with the Robber Barons, which is always a treat. They are the nicest guys in the world, not to mention a fine band in the own right. Closing out the night was Sorrow Town Choir. They reminded me a bit of Jerry Joseph and Tom Waits. It was a mellow sort of groove, but not without energy. It was good night of music all the way around.
Today we head back into the city to play Thee Parkside. It's an early show for the Twang Sunday crowd. We've played this quite a few times, and it's one we enjoy quite thoroughly. It's a mellow event and we all have a good time enjoying the afternoon plying our craft and enjoying some company of our friends.
Till next time, take care! Be sure to take a gander at some of the photos (the picasa link to the right)
