Concert Review: Spencer Sutherland at The Chapel, San Francisco
The Chapel is a new venue for us. First impressions were less than stellar – our “e-tickets” were coming up as “invalid” when they were scanned, causing some problems that had to be sorted out by the staff. It turned out to be equipment error on their scanner and it all worked out, but that…
LMAO:Chris Porter at Rooster T. Feathers, Sunnyvale, CA
Friday night was a great night of laughs for us! Our daughter was kind enough to pick up tickets for a comedy night at a legendary local comedy club, Rooster T. Feathers, in Sunnyvale. The featured comic was Chris Porter, one of our favorite current comedians. This was our second time seeing Chris live and…
Friday Flashback! Aussie Edition.
Still lamenting the Chuch show that I missed this week, I’ve been listening to them a lot…which led me down the path back to some Australian faves from back in the day. Enjoy! Enjoy your weekend! Thanks for stopping by!
Close, but no cigar: The Church at Great American Music Hall, SF.
I can still distinctly remember the very first time I heard The Church. It was the Fall of 1982, my Freshman year of high school. A Senior by the name of Art had “taken me under his wing” in the marching band’s drumline, and one day he invited me over to his house after school…
Book Review: The Iron Web by Larken Rose
This is yet another book that I cannot recall how I ever came across… I had never heard of the title, nor the author but I did buy it myself, so I must have heard about it from some other blogger, or maybe someone dropped the name in a comment on a blog or social…
Persistence Pays Off!
Just shy of a year ago, I lamented in a post about putting off what you need for so long that the item is no longer available. We’ll, in my case it wasn’t something I needed, just something I really, REALLY wanted. Well, I’m happy to say that after 50+ weeks of relentless hunting and…
Playing catch up!
To say the last month has been a whirlwind would be an understatement! It seems as though things have been firing on all cylinders lately and half the time I don’t know if I’m coming or going! Work has been busy – the end of the fiscal year, plus the start of a new one…
Concert Review: Lettuce at the Fillmore Auditorium, SF.
I’ll say right up front that I only recently learned of the existence of the band Lettuce. The Mrs. actually discovered them first and played a track of theirs while we were in the car about a month ago, and I was knocked out by how great the song was. Fast forward 24 hours and…
Year of the Rabbit
It gave me a smile when I learned that 2023 was to be the Year of the Rabbit in Lunar (Chinese) New Year. The last Years of the Rabbit were pretty good ones for me, so I took that as a good omen. Little did I know that the Year would go flying by as…
Out and About: Dita Von Teese at the Palace of Fine Arts, SF.
Saturday night the Mrs. and I went and did something completely different, we experienced our very first Burlesque Show at the San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts with the one and only Dita Von Teese. I’ll be honest, I didn’t really know much about her other than her bringing the “art of burlesque” back into…
