I Heart The Bay Area
Usually the first time you visit a place that you love you’re either blinded by the newness and freshness of this new place or once you get home you realize that you like the old place way better than the new place. Well the second time I have visited the Bay Area and I’m still in love with it. I NEED TO MOVE THERE! I love everything about it! The weather, the scenery, the people, the buildings, the city, the food, mother fucking everything! Everyone’s into technology, there are a ton of companies to work for, there’s very few ghetto spots, NO DESERT!
You know what sucks though is I actually can’t really move at this moment in time. I’m having more fan in my band The Predicates than I can remember. My job is super easy and relaxing, I have a few friends here that I’d miss a lot & I’m not the richest guy in da hood. If my band would move up to the Bay Area I would leave in a heartbeat.
I belong up there! My people are up there. Well I don’t actually mean white people because all I really saw were Asians and Indians. What I meant by that is the artsy fartsy, yuppy, Techie Geek peeps!
While visiting the Bay Area I tried setting up two dates with people I know online who actually live up there. One being Queen of Dysfunction and the other being DJ Bardot. The Queen emailed me back with some lame ass excuse of being too busy or something with family visiting?!?! Ha ha I believe her. She’s going to come visit San Diego in the fall so I guess I’ll have to wait until then. DJ Bardot on the other hand was much easier and willing to meet! Emily and I met setup to meet her at the mall in Palo Alto near Standford University. It’s funny because everytime we met up with Miss Bardot we actually ran right into here. At the mall we were walking out because we needed to be somewhere else and we figured she was going to be too late, but we ran right into her. Then at Amoeba Records in San Francisco we again were walking out and slammed right into her. She is a nice Filipino girl with a lotta style (Think Hells Belles meets Indie Rawk). Her boyfriend is a lucky man to meet a woman that not only likes good music, but knows how to take a nice photo on Flickr.
I’m going to definitely move there it’s just a matter of when!
Enjoy my photosfrom the trip!

Aw Gregg! I’m so bummed that I wasn’t able to hook up with you! It’s just that I had already made plans with my brother, who came up from Santa Cruz for the weekend.
…if it helps any I got dragged into hiking in some of the hottest, stickiest, nastiest canyons in the Sierras to help him with some archaeological stuff. I would much rather have been hanging out at Amoeba Records or Union Square!
