Oakland, like the rest of the Bay area is long past its prime.

So when I go to Mets-A's in mid-June, I should do the same as five years ago and not see anything but the ramp leading to the Coliseum?

Unless of course the East Bay Rats are having a Fight Party that weekend:

I got into a scuffle last nite in Oakland.

andy --, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 18:45 (twenty years ago)

tell us more.

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 18:46 (twenty years ago)

hammer?

nein Socken (nein Socken), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 18:49 (twenty years ago)

No, I was deputized to work the door at the Ruby Room because they were understaffed. A tough guy hiphop dude didn't want to leave so we escorted him out. No blood, no throw-downs, just a pressing, insistent drive out the door.

(This is only two block from the jail where they incarcerated Huey! Oakland! Oakland!)

andy --, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 18:55 (twenty years ago)

i'll be in oakland tonight!

jaxon (jaxon), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:00 (twenty years ago)

The Dead are in town again?

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:01 (twenty years ago)

The Dead used to play all the time at Henry J Kaiser, across the street from aforementioned courthouse. It's weird, because it's not a ginormous place. I guess they weren't so popular after all.

andy --, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:02 (twenty years ago)

Should I move to Oakland? Can I get a 2bed in a non-sketchy area?

The eternal question.

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:03 (twenty years ago)

and before kyle posts here, I don not consider Grand/Lake sketchy.

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:04 (twenty years ago)

Grand Lake or rockridge are fine...

I've lived in Downtown since '98 and I've only been mugged once.

andy --, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:05 (twenty years ago)

Are there actually rentals in Rockridge proper? I like it there, but to actually LIVE there? Not so sure.

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:07 (twenty years ago)

Or do you mean Piedmont?

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:11 (twenty years ago)

eat it brit boy

jaxon (jaxon), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:14 (twenty years ago)

Is it shameful to covet this? I always see it from the freeway!

http://www.craigslist.org/eby/apa/118742337.html

I can't afford it anyway.

xp haha

[jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:14 (twenty years ago)

I've been there, they're nice. that one is nicer than the one I was in

kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:22 (twenty years ago)

No, I was deputized to work the door at the Ruby Room because they were understaffed

is the Ruby Room fun again? because it was when it opened and then it fucking sucked for a long time.

kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:26 (twenty years ago)

that's not too expensive, but take it from me. don't live in a loft. i totally miss doors

jaxon (jaxon), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:28 (twenty years ago)

that is actually really cheap for that loft, I'm surprised.

kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:29 (twenty years ago)

i'm a bit disappointed that this thread has turned into yuppies talking about loft prices.

nein Socken (nein Socken), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:32 (twenty years ago)

eh, it's alright. It was bumping last night with buzzed Cal girls.

By far Oakland's greatest asset (which I recently discovered) is Joaquin Miller Park, right above the Mormon Temple. Dense redwood forests, WPA bridges, it's the lovliest place I've found. And you'll see barely a soul, Tilden is packed with North Face kooks but JMiller park is always empty.

jaxon (jaxon), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:43 (twenty years ago)

Hahaha! Yeah I'm totally a yuppie!

Where I come from, the property prices eat your puny Bay Area prices for BREAKFAST!
