so.....the Nar/Four Eyes show is a bit unusual. It starts way early and there are six bands and it HAS TO BE over by 10:30. I sure hope Nar will have time to play! Here's the scoop:
Saturday Aug 26th......
This show is going to start early cause we have 6 bands now and they are all out-of-town and awesome. Please show up early so itdoesn't really suck to play first. Show starts at 5pm
NAR (Sacramento)
Four Eyes (Sacramento)
Unloveables (New York)
Vena Cava (san diego)
Hostile combover (san diego)
All hope is noise (ireland)
The likely order will have the 2 san diego bands andthe irish band taking the first 3 spots, then the Unlovables, Nar and lastly, the Four Eyes. Who knows if this order will really happen, so try to show up on the early side. you can always go get a burrito orindian pizza if you want to skip the early bands.Heck, even if you get to the city on time, you might end up missing 3 bands while looking for a parking spot!
It's also Aaron Probe's birthday so some of us start that day early in Pleasanton hitting brew pubs and eating chicken wings until we make it to the show.
ReplyDeleteHow long before some of us are kicked out of the show?
Thanks for the heads up last night! Did you watch it? That band was the worst.

no way, they are taking dublin by storm! that host was a total goober, but it did make me want to go to ireland. it made me mad that he didn't talk about food at all and barely about beer. please tell me guys are going to visit the dingle peninsula!
ReplyDeleteWe vow to dangle it on the dingle. And when we come back, I will be wearing a Dingle shirt everywhere.
ReplyDeleteYou should come with us, dude. I don't know how much you heard at last night's "meeting," but we are planning to just drink beer and look at green stuff. That's our travel style. Dingle style!

I'm going to Mexico around that time, so I can't! I'm sure you'll have fun, though.
ReplyDeleteshould we be placing wagers Smitty? if so i got $5 that says you'll make it a healthy 20min.
ReplyDeleteHey, what time are other people leaving from sac to get there? 3?
ReplyDeletejanana
ps. Dingle style! (do I need to budget for this?, calculation get me to dublin III, on it's way)
I think that once you see this "venue" it will quickly become apparent that nobody's gonna be getting kicked out.

Bill and Brad got kicked out of a Pogues show for being too drunk (!), so place your bets.
ReplyDeleteI'm betting people will pass out before they are kicked out. -FG

If ya ever plan a trip to Okinawa...Grab a bottle of Nihede Stout/Dark Beer..Okinawa micro brew that tastes like homebrew!!
Homebrewing is illegal in japan but mama san makes homemade plum liqour(umeboshi??) which is legal.
I sucked one niehede down last night and it reminded me of the ol` kitchen brewin` days..

Beckler, on a foodie tip, I just want to thank you for the recommend on the Pneumatic Diner in Reno. I was up there yesterday with a good friend visiting her dad in the hospital, and we went there afterward. I wish we had something like that in Sackville. I had a Greek salad with falafel bits, drenched in tzatziki, and it was pretty gosh darned heavenly.
