Atmosphere Concert, The Warfield April 20th 2009



It was a classic and one for the ages.
10:30pm when Slug and Ant took the stage The Warfield in San Francisco erupted with a cacophonous ruckus that shook the hearts and eustachians of every one in the building.

The 420 aroma perfumed the atmosphere inside the venue and with his live performers following along side him, Slug ripped the face off the microphone and began a journey that brought the crowd down a path of the bands greatest hits.

If you were in attendance you know how epic this concert was. If you weren't I implore you to somehow find a bootleg copy of the performance. Maybe then you can see how brilliant the night was.

It was also a nice touch when Slug brought Aesop Rock to the stage for a freestyle duo that deafened Zeus himself.

Thanks Atmosphere. Happy Birthday Momma.

Old Woman

Today I was grabbing a bite to eat in Noe Valley. As I exited the less than classy Chinese restaurant I came upon the nicest beggar woman I have ever met. I say beggar because who knows whether or not she was homeless, not too many homeless people I have come across listen to ipods. But as I walked by her I was cordial and bestowed a kind smile upon her. She smiled back and then hit me with "spare some change honey?"
I thought this to be ever so interesting. I almost said "no but spare some music tips as to whats good?"
All that came out of my mouth however was "I'm sorry I don't, but have a wonderful day!"
to which she retorted "You too baby".

Apparently my prime demographic are black women aged 45-52 who sit on the sidewalk listening to their ipods and begging for change. In hindsight I should have dropped her .99 cents and told her a good song to download.

I begged for change once, then I voted.
