Which popular SF drummer has a hemmorhoid that won't go away? Seems all the long hours driving to gigs and sitting on the drum stool have taken their toll.

Which local SF music festival asked bands not to book any other gigs the month of May only to not come through with shows for all the bands they asked this of? Some of the bands left out in the cold turned down numerous gigs and are cursing said festival.

Which SF venue desperately needs a new P.A.?

Which new SF music and culture blog has been getting critiqued on the SF Indie list as not being super fun, as promoted by it's own author? Little do they know he's using the blog to promote his own bands on the site as well!

O.K. here's some bands we don't like and why. Please don't take it personally. Some things just aren't everyone's cup of tea.

Society of Rockets (ugh, not only do they sing out of tune, play horns out of tune and bore us to tears, they play for wayyy toooo looooongggggg!)

Honeycut (we don't know what to say, we love Bart solo, kind of like a bad Jamiroquai!)

Excuses for Skipping (not to be confused with Kind Of Like Spitting) - there's some potential here, the drummer rules, but being an all dyke band isn't enough. Stop doing the Madonna cover now please and go practice some more.

Sugar and Gold - almost didn't type this, everybody loves them. We don't. We liked Dura Delinquent and we loved Connection. We'll check out the recordings because we want to like them. Live, the drum programming turned us off, the energy was low.

Pop Levi (l.a.) - could a band be anymore pretentious and boring? NOT to be confused with the lovely Pop Noir.

Harold Ray Live in Concert - at first we thought they were a wedding band, we were right. It might work if the lead singer was sexy but he's just eh.


O.K. that's all for now. We're going to lie on the couch for awhile.
