San Francisco and what to do in it

I'm liable to be anywhere between the Palace and a fungus hostel on Geary near the Tenderloin, if that helps pick a spot. I'm pretty sureI banned gabbneb once, if that helps inspire anybody to come out.

Me and schwantz cant do mondays

Which is the worst annual Moscone Center shit show, btw? Am I about to be part of the silver medal winner?

Oracle World is probably the worst.

I hope I can get to see some people next week. Ned has my deets if anybody wants to get in touch via my unofficial channel.
For my official channel, stop by our booth in the expo hall and blah blah arrgh vomit

Wednesday out for me as is Thursday due to other plans. Tomboto and I will try for a sit-down on Monday and then if other folks want to do Wednesday, go for it!

N.R.E.A.M.

May be down for Monday!

ILX way down the IRL priority list nonshocker.

Where in Oakland is Prince most likely to do an aftershow? My dream of it happening at Cafe Van Cleef is still alive.

haha my boss wanted to call his manager and try to have one at the gallery (a few blocks down from the Fox)

though if people want to go have drinks at Van Cleef on Sunday, I'm down ... I live nearby

er Paramount, same distance (re error in post before this)

Hey, text me. I broke my phone and got a new one.

just did

lol I had no idea all of you people were ILX SF massive

i may be available next week depending on time and day and mood

monday works for me :)

I'm free-ish after 5:30 pm I think. Where is good?

Oakland

hey guys I need a new drummer. anyone know any bay area drummers who want to play psych-country-rock sorta stuff? plz don't make me post a craigslist ad.

Just had to text Tomboto that I'm out for this evening -- feeling very under the weather since Saturday night and I just want to go home and lie down. All other evenings this week spoken for already so I'll just send best to all for whatever works out!

Same, was uncomfortably sick yesterday, better not whoop it up with the BOT TOM tonight.

The Mikkeller Bar lived up to most of the hype FWIW.

Nice!

BART loses money every year, and has been overburdened for years as well. this is what happens when people don't want to accept rate increases.

what they really need to do (and are currently fielding plans for) is drill a second tunnel under the bay. and who's gonna pay for that.

Hello, welcome to the planet Earth where *extremely* few public transportation systems run at a fare-based profit:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farebox_recovery_ratio#Farebox_ratios_around_the_world

BART actually rates pretty well in the USA.

Scratch that, BART rates #1 in fare-based profit across all American municipal transit agencies and a close second to Amtrak.

not arguing with any of that! that they're the least under-funded doesn't obviate the fact that they need more money. every system could use more investment, including BART.

in case anyone missed this

his house is half a block from my apartment; since he's moved in, there are two guys, presumably armed, sitting in an SUV parked outside 24 hours a day staring down every single person who walks down 21st street. I remember being impressed when he moved to mission central that he wanted to live among the plebs, but as it is turning out, he doesn't

there's a surprise

idg why he moved here at all tbh, seems like he should have a compound up in Nicasio next to George Lucas

MAGMAAAAAAAAA

now that we're all here, when are we gonna do our FAP w Ned

thats up to ned! im at benders most sunday afternoons lol.

the main problems with BART are:
1. it's too expensive -- it's cheaper to drive from the East Bay to SF than to take BART, except for maybe the 9 to 5 ppl that work downtown (granted there are a lot of them). I don't think I've taken BART in over 2 yrs?
2. it stops running well before bars close.

xpost Oh yeah, right...huh. I think we'll have to wait for late April or May! Pretty much all these weekends coming up I'm either booked for other things or out of town visiting my folks or going to Seattle for EMP.

How do we convince vegemitegirl to come to this

^^ needs to happen! just1n3 otm

I'm in if and only if Veg is in!

(Sorry Ned.)

WELL JEEZ

That said IT SHOULD BE NOTED...

That VG is in fact coming to town with her guy for the Holy Holy show at the Fillmore at the end of April, Friday April 29th:

Now I'm not saying you should all go to the show. (But you should all go to the show.) There had been talk of doing some sort of meetup for dinner or whatever beforehand in the vicinity. Given it'll be a Friday night and etc.etc. we should be careful with our planning but...?

dosa a block away has a gin and tonic i dream about! also festa in japantown mall is the weirdest bar.

Dosa is awesome

Well maybe we can do that!

I am tentatively into this plan altho it does present certain logistical issues for me
