Yes, ah know, it’s been a while. Unfortunately, ah don’t have all tha pics ah hoped ah would just yet fer this update….but ahll try ta give you a quick run-down on all tha awesome shite anyway….<\/p>\n
9\/12<\/b> was Power to the Peaceful<\/a> a big free hippy festival that features a two hour set by Michael Franti n Spearhead (who is a main organizer of the whole shebang). think13 actually played this festival on tha kids stage last year – which ah shouldve blogged about but didn’t. Anyway, it’s a big free festival n ah gawt ta hang out w. a bunch of irish people that make me smile n ah don’t see that often. Even bettah – ah missed tha acoustic Alanis Morisette set n showed up just in time fer Mr. Franti. Too bad tha weather was cloudy. After that ah went to a basement show at an art gallery ta see my local bike mechanic hit tha skins. Ah think ah gawt pretty drunk that nite in retrospect….<\/p>\n As cool as this was tho, it is completely in tha shadows of 9\/15<\/b> whar ah saw tha original Bad Brains<\/a> on a short West-Coast tour tear tha fawk outta Slims here in SF. Opening fer them was my new favorite SF band Sistas in the Pit<\/a>, a black female power trio. Also this loser rapper POS who was way too emo n whose DJ sucked. But Bad Brains was nothing less then epic AND punk rawk. When they played reggae, ah felt like ah was on mushrooms. Too much fun.<\/p>\n On 9\/26<\/b> ah partied again like a rawkstar at tha Tour de Fat<\/a>, a bike festival put on by tha good folks behind Fat Tire. Ah poured beer fer a few hours as a volunteer fer tha San Francisco Bike Coalition<\/a> (which is full of all sorts of win), n then spent tha rest of tha afternoon drinkin beer n watchin crazy people play musick n walk on stilts. Really. That evenin was topped off w. a (free – awesome!) dinner at the Beach Chalet on Ocean Beach, n then drinks-while-dressed-up fer my friends Bday party in Noe Valley. <\/p>\n Then on 9\/27<\/b> ah went to tha worlds largest leather\/fetish festival, tha Folsom Street Fair<\/a>, gittin some footage fer an eventual Wee the Band<\/a> video. Fer tha most part it was a lawt of fun, altho every once in a while youd see some naked dude wankin it, which ah couldve done w.o.<\/p>\n Speakin of my dumb vocal-pop band, we did anutha Ex’pressions video<\/a> (minus the bass disaster) yestahday n will have new videos up on youtube soon w. our new songs – which are gittin pretty crazy. It’s been exactly a year ah think since tha last one – which was our first gig togetha. Despite how weird it is that ahm in that band, ah really continue ta enjoy playin w. them. N they nevah fail ta mention how tha band is completely different since ah joined it (thas what happens when you git a bassist that doesnt suck!)<\/p>\n Anyway, ah hope ta put togetha some pics of my backyard n tha last couple weekends soon n post it fer ya. Howevah, please stay tuned fer my October update – ahm gaein on a detox!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yes, ah know, it’s been a while.
