Anybody have anything good to say about The Fray?  Any songs that redeem them, or should I try to sell my tickets?


Don't really know enough about 'em beyond the song(s) that KFOG plays. But it's at Shoreline, right? If you really want to see Gomez, I'd wait 'til they come back thru headlining someplace smaller--you'll get a longer set and most likely a better view of the band.

Yah, Snoreline.  The trouble with the smaller places like the Fillmore or the Warfield is that you have to stand all the time to see anything.  I'm just not into that anymore (if I ever was).


Well, if you have decent seats for Shoreline, then go. Personally I don't have an issue standing most of the time but I can understand how that might put you off. (Btw, the Warfield has loads of seats up in the balcony, but you're not exactly close to the stage unless you're right on the rail.)
Let's get right to it.

Being that they are freebies, does that mean Lawn seating? I stand plenty at shows but don't do lawn anymore.

If you thought yesterday's set was short, you ain't seen nothin' yet--it's 10:13 and we're on song #5.

At this rate we'll be done before 10:30.


Woo Hoo! "Green Grass & High Tides" -- this should lengthen things a bit.

Definite BOS so far, though it's a very good set.


Just put on the phones:  BOS, the Outlaws!


Rod, nice to see ya, bro. And love that you're sportin' the green!

Probably are lawn seats, since they make a big deal out of when they give good seats.  I like it up there, though it's a little bit like watching a music video.

Thanks!  I pop in from time to time.

As for the green, a bunch of us from work are going to Elephant & Castle downtown (on Sacramento, i believe) for some Jameson's and such at 4pm...  Gotta get my irish on!
