UghghghHGGH DPT

I have received many B.S. tickets from San Francisco Department of Parking and Transportation, but the one I got this morning was over the top. I received an $88 ticket for "parking in a driveway." These are pictures of where I was parked.

So here is the "driveway" I was parked in front of...

Or maybe it was the white curb? Is this white? is it even possible to discern this at 10p.m. when I parallel parked into a small spot? Um, no... its not.

12. Ok Go- Shooting The Moon

13. Grizzly Bear - Slow Life

14. Editors – No Sound But The Wind

Ummm.. I'm sold on quite a few bands in there and the others aren't bad. Maybe it won't be compelling enough to see the movie, but who knows.

Some Music for the Week Off

After 8 long months, I am finally taking a little time off. Everyone keeps asking me "where are you going?" Pshh.. Sucka, I am going nowhere. I am sitting at home, not planning anything and enjoying some R&R. I turning the email function off on my phone and not answering any calls from work. I really need this time off, I was starting to get really crabby.

So my goal is to focus on finding some new music, listening to music, reading, biking, etc. I guess I sort of do have some plans...

My good friends The Local Natives were up for a show at The Independent this last week and played a great show. I was talking to Matt about their publicity and told him how much I loved their exlcusive they put out on the Aurgasm blog. They also played a new song, which sounded great (I really can't describe it, I was a bit tipsy at the time). Keep an eye out for them in the near future, they're doing great things!



Local Natives - Camera Talk (Acoustic Aurgasm Exclusive)

Secondly, I will be attending the Telefon Tel Aviv concert this next Saturday. Not that many people come across my blog, but they're great. If you haven't heard them, listen to the media player on the side... I'm still learning to link the music to the yahoo player.

Was that a Bomb?

This Saturday at about 9:00a.m. I was minding my own business, sleeping when I hear a loud BOOOOOOOM. I immediately woke up and the aftermath, a low growl lingered... I wasn't sure what was going on, so I litterally grabbed my bed and braced myself because I thought we were going to have a massive earthquake. Brent on the otherhand was convinced it was a bomb. Well, this guy was smarter and pulled the camera out and got a crazy shot of the wrath of Zues.
