You had me until you misspelled Palestine and called it a “conflict”. And no Iraq war vet would give two turds about that hole or ever live there. Now go get back on your PS4 where someone believes the 15 year old age level bs you spew. I have pubic hairs older and meaner than you are.

Yep WEAKLING (look then up) broke up around 1999 and the music pretty much died. Except for Matty Luv’s various musics and Old Grandad a handful Mission Records bands.

So simply saying “Sf sucks now” at a club is enough to get a headline on this blog?

Oh well. It still seems less entitled than when people come on here to complain about their stolen bikes.

BTW, I kind of pity anyone who is offended at this point that people think SF sucks now. It does, not in all ways, and not overall, but in many ways it does suck. Musically, the city began sucking almost 15 years ago. Apparently everyone knows that but you, which is why very few bands are here any more, and why instead they’re in Portland or LA. Telling people to shut up isn’t going to change that.

It’s always sad when “love it or leave it” is all you’ve got left. That doesn’t sound like a city with juice; that sounds like a city with an axe to grind.

Sounds about right. And talking utter shit, too, since anyone who works in city restaurants these days knows that no one who washes dishes can write English at even the minimum blog comment level. It’s wall-to-wall Spanish in the dish pits.

if you grew up in the South Bay, and had a brain in your head, you did everything you could do to get up to either SF or Berkeley (or maybe Santa Cruz when there was still a Greyhound Bus station in downtown Los Gatos)

Are you talking to someone? Or is this the digital equivalent of the crazy hobo ranting on a street corner?

Hey there techies I mean hackers coders or whatever who cares. What about the people that wash your dishes after you at that pork belly sandwich or the people that clean up the bar you went to night before. You know the one where you were “roughing it” cause it’s school edging. How are those people going to support their families when it’s getting increasingly harder for them to afford rent here.

Oh, yeah and the elderly that having been living in their apartments for 30+ years. Where are they going to go once they kicked out to make room for you. But who cares right?

Successful art needs to sell and appeal to the masses to be successful and therefore sucks. Real art is bad and ugly and painted black. So there.

That comment was probably the most interesting thing going on at an indie rock show these days. You should be happy for the discourse.

I AGREE SAN FRANCISCO WAS GREAT 5 YEARS AGO WHEN IT WAS CHEAP AND RENT WAS FREE

I disagree, man. I mean, sure, they’re suburbs, but nobody actually GROWS UP in the suburbs. They may get older, but you only actually grow up where there’s culture.

I was at the concert, it was great. I’ve loved the Thermals since 2003, never had a chance to see them live until last week
