one of those nights

I had one of those nights, we've all had them.  You know, the nights when you have one drink too many and buy a rather pricy (but worth it, early 70s deadstock) Sha Na Na tshirt that may be too small for you.  Watching the clip above, I don't care if I have to lose ten pounds, I will cram myself into the Sha Na Na shirt.  Remember how Sha Na Na played Woodstock?  The best thing about that clip, besides how rad they are, is the audience reaction.

I made it out to new Bows Collective after missing all their opening festivities and was stoked to discover that they have the very best patio in Sacramento.  It is delightful.

It's so lived-in and homey already.

Look at this table full of handsome dudes.  I like this photo because I scooped the News and Review with it.  You'll see.

So a month or so ago I found out about the Ginger  Elizabeth ice cream socials.  Do you know about these?  They're always on second Saturday, and I guess she had them last year and I missed all of them.  I'm just glad I know about them now, because she has some truly wild flavors going on.  For instance the one tomorrow is: fromage blanc ice cream, local honey ice cream, thyme and butter roasted apricots, apricot jus, brioche bread  puding, chantilly cream.  Fucking insane.  They're 7 bucks.  I'm really excited about the one in August, which is raw milk ice cream!  I've always wanted to make raw milk ice cream.  In fact, I have a new, better hand crank ice cream maker so I should get going on that.  The one in October has cardamom ice cream, coffee ice cream, and donut holes.  Fuuuuckkk.

Also, on Saturday it's Hullaballoo with DJ Hailey Bop at the Fox and Goose.  And if you want to know what art openings to check out, read Tim's art picks.
