"Get Crafty!" Craft day at Willo's
Nov 06, 2005
My friends & I try to put together craft days here & there. It had been awhile, so I set one up at mi casa and said "let the huffing of glue begin!" hahaa. A few people couldn't make it and a few people simply spaced it. Hey, it was a Sunday, so I don't blame em... but we had fun! I'm stoked to start doing this more regularly.
   
John Vanderslice w/ Most Serene Republic @ the Independent
Nov 05, 2005
Most Serene Republic were TERRIFIC! I can't wait to get their album - they were really, really good. John Vanderslice, however, had me snoring. zzzzzz. I'd seen him before & didn't enjoy it, and was really afraid I was going to feel that way again - and I did. SNOOZEFEST. I couldn't get into it at all and honestly it was painful to wait it out. Ali is a huge fan though, so she stayed up front & enjoyed it. The only saving graces for me were that I ran into my friend Becca, and JV finally played "Pale Horse". I'll stick to listening to him at home.

Dan's Bday @ Suppenküche
Nov 01, 2005

Dan's gf, Sarah, set up a surprise bday dinner for Dan at this great German restaurant in Hayes Valley. It was great to meet some of their other friends, eat some tasty food, and wash it down with lots of fine German beer! Happy Birthday, Dan! (more photos to come, from dan's camera)

This show was rescheduled from the week before, but having it on Halloween was perfect! Eleventeen opened and I only took photos of them because of the lead's great t-shirt. ha! PGMG ROCKED! Extra fun because a lot of people (including the band members) were dressed up for Halloween!
