San Francisco, California.

rad

goddammit why do all the good shows happen while I'm outta town. I haven't seen anybody decent in, like, a year.

Did anyone make the long, long trek out to Bayview for Galoppierende Zuversicht?

GZ were good, but Sammy D pretty much tore the place up. Might have been some substance-induced aural hallucination, but I think he threw some Violetta Parra-esque folk singing into the mix. Ricardo rip-off or no, it was the awesomest SF dancey moment I've had so far.

Nice sound too. Wish I'd been there for Kode 9.

Silver Apples at Cafe du Nord on 09/20. I wonder what they'll sound like without Taylor. A friend went to the show in NYC said it was good but I don't know after being disappointed by so many of my favorite 60's acts doing revivals i'm on the fence. Os Mutantes at Stern Grove this year was one of those moments...

Colleen at the Herbst Theatre opening for Beirut 8/9 and 8/10. Anyone know what seats are closer, the dress circle or orchestra pit?

those dates are passed!

oh you did an english thing

No, I got August mixed up with October. Shows are 10/8 and 10/9.

Legendary Kansai-based guitarist Yamamoto Seiichi

ok this was awesome, like hardcore old school boredoms riffs

Is Kevin Saunderson still good?

What the hell was The Field doing supporting !!! last night? Did anyone go?

i saw Curses in NY a while back and he put on a really great show. singing over his beats in crazy face paint.

ILM favorite Steve Goldberg is playing at the Edinburgh Castle!

APPEARING TONIGHT, from Finland, the masters of droning hypnorock, the new kings of the NEW WAVE OF FINNISH HEAVY METAL (NWOFHM), that's right...

CIRCLE!!!!!!

Performing live, stripped down a bit, but still heavy and hypnotic.

Wednesday, September 26th
6:00 p.m.

Right here, at AQUARIUS RECORDS
1055 Valencia Street (btwn 21st and 22nd)

Should be AWESOME. We'd been trying to make this happen for ages, and it seemed like it might not, so our very own Andee volunteered to fly to Portland the night before to pick the Circle boys up and drive them all night to make sure they get here in time for the instore, as well as a secret show later the same night (the location of which will only be revealed to folks who attend the instore!).

I was thinkin of going to that with my neighbor buddy, but I feel like shit

should be good. not really feeling their last record, but live i heard they can be pretty mind blowing

Aquarius is also so tiny, not really an ideal show "venue"

Sigh. I am wondering if I should blow off my other plans to go to this.

haha yeah where are they gonna fit everyone? im sure its going to be a zoo. have a friend going to AQ, so maybe ill go that "secret show" tonight.

I still kinda marvel at the time they got Ghost to do an in-store

Sorcerer & Hatchback aka Windsurf are DJ'ing instore at Amoeba on Friday, 7pm. interview here.

expect Balearic/cosmic/beardo disco vibes....

so sad i can't make that sorcerer/hatchback thing. i was planning on going, but have other things coming up instead (got a class to here for my bday http://www.cheeseschoolsf.com/)

Gah that I can't go to either. :(

"maximize your enjoyment and appreciation of cheese"

is glass candy playing the fillmore on 11/1? with whom?

I like cheese.

OK so I'm no longer in SF since last weekend, but if people there don't go to the Ron Trent & Chez Damier thing @ Temple for a good ol' soulstirrin' rumpshakin' and report back, I will have lost faith in ILM forever. Do yourself a favor and check it out instead of some emaciated scandinavian playing your own 70's disco-rock back to you or some square-shades wearing screeching laptop nonsense by berkeleyite nerds or whatever else is going on that night.

This is happening tomorrow btw

this is in three weeks. please come if you are in town (anyone).

i am. does it suck? is it tiny? i saw their ebay page and they had some cool stuff i'd buy, but heard not everything in the store is listed on the site. so figured i could peruse the store and save on shipping all in one.

It is a decent shop - I have found some sweet jazz and folk LPs there over the years and usually pretty cheap, but the majority of the time I walk out empty handed and I've been dying to buy records at the time...

Basically, would I come up from the city just for TLRS? No. But if it is part of a Sonoma County daytrip, sure.

goin to that Independent show that night, can't make the instore. I'll watch Kurihara play with anybody.

should i take our baby to boris @ amoeba? he is 15 months. I think he would enjoy it. his ears might not.

I am taking my unborn baby to Boris based on her responsive kicking to last night's Earth listening session

WHO WANTS TO BE ON MY PUB QUIZ TEAM

they don't fuck around at the Edinburgh

really? do i need to put together a good team? can i do it solo?

honestly most of my time there has been spent in the upstairs room watching bands, whenever I go downstairs I am scared off by mob of drunken football fans
