Last night, Will, Abe, Robert and I headed to Slim's in SOMA to check out my favorite Canadian band, The Weakerthans, in concert. Prior to the concert, we went to Yo-Yo for sushi dinner, visiting our favorite hostess, Jessica, who showered us with lavish extras like edamame, tempura, and more beer (!). What a great, dependable place.
The Weakerthans just released their highly anticipated follow-up to 2003 "Reconstruction Site" with their newest album release of "Reunion Tour" at the end of September.
I bought a rad brown warm-up jacket with a Weakerthans curling design. Curling...awesome. ASIDE: Does anyone know where a girl could go curling in the Bay Area?
Can someone please teach me how to take a picture in a dark concert venue?
Here's a blurry and questionable-sound-quality video of the Weakerthans playing one of my all-time favorite songs, "Reconstruction Site":
My new favorite song "Night Windows" from their new album:
It was so awesome to see this band live again. They played for over 1.5 hours and checked off my favorite tunes: "Left and Leaving", "A Plea From A Cat Named Virtute", "Our Tired Explorer" and "One Great City!".
I heart The Weakerthans!
