Tonight I was literally blown away. Yeah, I was standing in front of a fan the whole time. But for $15 dollars, donated to Project Open Hand, I saw the following: -Tom Morello: from the political fist in air speech giver, to the wah wah wah guitar god, to the whiskey sipping Shake That Shit […]
Tonight made twice in one week that I tested out new venues in SF. And let me tell you, Hotel Utah is an odd one. There are tables and chairs in parts, making finding a place to stand a bit awkward. The ceiling is low until you get right to the stage. And the stage […]
Wintersleep is an indie rock band from Halifax, Nova Scotia that dabbles in the psychedelic and hard rock spectrum. I’ve seen them once before, and they put on a great live show. Lead singer Paul Murphy answered a few questions for me. Don’t miss your chance to see them tonight at Hotel Utah. HardRockChick: How […]
Somehow I’ve avoided going to the Hemlock for a show. Perhaps it has something to do with my experiences at the bar there- a smug hipster meets rocker meets marina preppy joint where the bartenders act like it’s a pain in the ass to get you a drink. But they do host some good shows, […]
-Presales for NIN shows caused heart attacks around the U.S. So far, I’ll be at Chula Vista, Las Vegas, Shoreline, and Camden. This time I’ll be vlogging about my shows in lieu of writing, so look for that in May. -Trent Reznor vs. Chris Cornell twitter fight. Reznor wins in a KO. -TR posts about […]
If you missed the presales, you can still score tickets for the sure to be epic Nine Inch Nails, Jane’s Addiction, and Street Sweeper show at Shoreline Amphitheater on May 22nd this Sunday @ 10am. Otherwise, you can get your Jonas Brothers tickets here.
My picks for the week are: saturday/march 21: kowloon walled city @ hemlock sunday/march 22: Battle of the Bands @ DNA Lounge monday/march 23: Destruction @ Slim’s tuesday/march 24: The S.I.G.I.T. @ thee parkside wednesday/march 25: Wintersleep @ Hotel Utah

I decided to go early tonight. I was viewing this show as a co-headliner affair: I love Brian Jonestown Massacre, and I really like Primal Scream. The Fillmore was practically empty as I walked into the ballroom and claimed a spot at the rail. Promptly at 8, Kuroma opened the show. Lead singer Hank Sullivant […]

{ I couldn't agree more with your assessment of the situation. I felt the same way in Chicago, only with super shitty NIN-presale seats. } – Aug 27, 6:21 PM
