Man, life is good right now...I'm sitting enjoying Wi-Fi on Union Street at yes...A Star'yups'...But I have to give them major credit because I've had a helluva time fading in-and-out trying to catch people's free Wi-Fi around the area...So, special thanks to the Union Street shop because I would have been crippled without Wi-Fi this week...Plus, I'm averaging about eight cups of Zen Green Tea a day...So, Wi-Fi does pay.
So, here's an update for you. I checked out a an unbelievable funk ensemble last night at the Boom Boom Room. Even though I will always be partial to the original Jack's that used to reside on the corner the of Fillmore and Geary, I'm blown away by how great the sound is in there, and how professional things are running there after three or four years...That's the joint!
Anyway, the line-up included: Zak Najor (Drums - Greyboy Allstars) Chris Stillwell (Bass - Greyboy Allstars) Brian Jordan (Guitar - KDTU) Chuck Prada (Perc. - 20th Congress/Black Eyed Peas) Cochemea Gastelum (Sax - 20th Congress/F4) George Sanders (Keys - B-Side players).
This line-up was bangin', and these cats got down! After two and a half years in the Hill, I needed this big-time...Plus, it was good groovin' next to one of the most fly women that I've danced with in quite some time...But let's keep that one here, aaight! Just wait until my Salsa moves come into the play...Awww siiitttt!!!
***In the area news, here's a great article today from Tom Fitzgerald of SFGate on the Giants are going to be putting their fans' patience to the test. The Giants are gong to be pushing ticket prices up by 40% next season. Here's a question. No matter how many season tickets the Giants sell, do you think people are really going to be into Barry Bonds's race for 714 and then 755? Here's another one for you...Do you think fans will forgive and forget, or will they crucify the spoiled boy...I mean "Man-Wonder."
My say is that people along with the media will crucify, and I think people are going to be surprised at how many vacant seats you're going to be seeing at Giants games over the next season or two. They're line-up is aging and with Barry playing gimp over the next season or two, they could be in for a long haul because he is a major drag on a payroll that could use an influx of young talent.
***I'll keep you posted on some more stuff. Meanwhile, save this one for your tour archives of San Francisco. DJ Mark Farina gives off his favorite spots in today's SFGate. I love his picks of Bernal Hill Park and Mitchell's Ice Cream (That ice-cream is incredible...I used to traverse four neighborhoods for it.
***I has to roll...I have a pedicure that I have to attend to...Hey, easy...I have to take care of my wheels...I'll keep you posted on what conversations I encounter. In the meatime, enjoy this pic from last week's Giants v. Reds game with my main man, Steven Comfort. Thanks for the tix...Keep it up in the Noe Easy!
