110. STEELTOWN!

Today we took BART out to Pittsburg (California, not Pennsylvania - no, we're not touring the entire country, yet!), and missed the connecting bus out to Old Town Pittsburg where we were gonna play.

So we took a cab with a really nice and funny driver. He was going on about celebrities he has driven, and all the crazy stuff that goes on in the San Francisco area. In his own words:
- If you're not from around here it could be like Alice in Wonderland for 8 hours, not knowing what hole you fell down!


We found Steeltown Coffee & Tea, which is in a bank. That was a first! We give our big thanks to Adrian, the owner, who booked us and did great promotion for the gig. We felt appreciated and at home. We enjoyed some yummy smoothies and headed to the marina to enjoy the sun (yes, finally some California weather!) and the breeze.

Again some green! Plastic mugs made out of plants! Fuck Big Oil!


After some guitar trouble the gig went great although there weren't too many people. But they tipped generously and we are very grateful. Also thanks to Tragic Ends for lending us their PA! After another missed bus were happy Adrian could drive us to the BART.


Tomorrow we'll have more time to blog, so maybe you'll get more to read then! Goodnight, folks!
