I don't get out much for music either. I was reading about Outlands which took place in Golden Gate Park this weekend and was rather glad I decided to not go. Sounded like a major crush, plus people jumping fences and squeezing through small entry points, etc. Maybe next weekend I'll go to the Scottish Highland Games which is only about 15 minutes away by car. Not so crowded and some local bands playing Scottish and Celtic music, young dancers, unusual athletic feats and some friends who almost always go to the games. I may have some Scottish ancestry. One grandmother traced our ancestry a fair ways back and got to someone named Tennant in Scotland. I'm amused since that's the last name of the actor playing the current Dr. Who.
Bob Mould is playing at Slim's the weekend after that. I have some temptation to hear him. Also a bit farther down the time stream Bill Frisell is playing at Yoshi's in Oakland. I like Bill Frisell's music. Ah well, enough of my meandering.
