wow- what a triumph for the local music scene. that had to a be a big money maker for tim mays- hopefully this will lead to more all local bills at the Casbah on friday and/or saturday night. i would guess that tim mays would make more money on a sold out local night then a sold out touring band night because the local bands make a LOT less money then the touring bands. that just seems like common sense to me.

last night was an effective demonstration of the market power of the downtown local music scene. so much better then the tuesday night all local bill, or the wednesday all local bill.

how was the music? great!
sirhan sirhan- they sound like the jesus lizard! three piece- hellacious.
the prayers- growing on me. would also note that they are representing a growing number of google key word searches. expect more prayers coverage
kill me tomorrow- reminds me of los angeles bands like new collapse, anavan and bubonic plague. no wave, drum centered.

congratulations to tim mays and tim pyles and to all the bands- i had some good bonding time with tim pyles, we even had a philosophical discussion re: whether "it" would ever "happen" in san diego. grand ole party has GREAT t shirts for six bucks. saturday night is better then sunday night.
