Damn, if I had a place to stay in NYC I'd be all over that. However, getting the train back at 11pm doesn't sound like a bunch of fun, so I think I'll decline.

But when/if you play in Philly/South Jersey then I am all over that.

I told my unemployed brother in Williamsburg to go. It seemed like the perfect opportunity for him to finally see MCF, as it's close and free and he's got nothing else to do. :)

The Knitting Factory is insanely awesome. Unfortunately it can be hard to tell where to go in order to see the band you're there for, because of the three-floor layout and general lack of signage. I went there to see The Spinto Band once and ended up sitting around where a crappy DJ was spinning thinking that's where the band was going to start playing and when I finally found out where they were there were only two songs left in their set and I was all like :( in the end.

I went to the show at Passout Records today. It was a good time, albeit a bit crazy (because of the MC Chris crowd)

I think I will be coming back into town on Wednesday to see the next concert, as I may have a chance to meet and hang out with Yook! :D

I'm so loving the fact that an SF'er is hitting the bigs. It's the battle we all try for, and he found the niche. Live Long Front!

Here's my photos from yesterday's concert:

I've got the videos on my desktop, but I need to see what the quality is like before I decide whether or not I want to upload them to Youtube.

If I can skip out of work an hour early tomorrow, I'll probably be at the Knitting Factory.

Hmm. If Front's not going on until 8, I may not be able to do this-- the last train back is around 10:15 pm. I will have to see if I can figure out some devious plan.

Dang. The Knit is literally 3 blocks from my job. But I was in Chicago at the time of the show. Wish I could've gone. Oh well. Next time.

Yeah, same here. Sorry I couldn't stay longer. You guys were great. I'm going to be in NYC next weekend with my wife. Maybe we can have lunch or dinner or something. My wife will insist that Gm7 be present. Brandon too!
