Emo band Hawthorne Heights is playing at local jazz club Yoshi’s

So, I got the band wrong and my timing was a little off, but my prediction from March ’09 was essentially pretty sound:

Get tickets here. (Thanks for the tip, Camille!)

Bonus ancient Yoshi’s jokes after the jump: (more…)

Great ideas

All the people I ran into at the Cloud Nothings show last night

Everybody and their mom was there!

  • Pat from Cocktails (the band)
  • Rain from Darn-It! (the denim repair shop)
  • Chad from Noise Pop (the music festival)
  • Ben from BFF (the radio station)
  • Tyler from Oskar Blues (the microbrewery)
  • Nicole from Phono del Sol (the outdoor concert at Potrero del Sol THIS WEEKEND)
  • Literally a thousand 19-year-olds

The show was pretty great, but as you can see from this ‘gram, most people had a pretty hard time getting a decent sightline on the drummer, which sucks because he is #thebest

Now let’s watch a great video:

(Full disclosure: I was Pat’s +1, so technically I didn’t really run into him.)

Some asshole in a silver BMW with license plate 5SHC554 just chucked this empty Arizona Mucho Mango can onto 20th Street, allegedly

Musta got more wasted at Trick Dog than intended, needed to rehydrate by slammin’ a half liter of high fructose corn syrup. Like a boss.

Holy cow!

And you thought my peanut-guacamole experiment was in bad taste

What! (I mean, Chipotle’s guac is pretty legit, but, what!) (I’m sticking with my peanut stuff.)

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."
