[Sorry for the scratchy sound quality. Really need to get a better video camera here that can handle loud live music.]

I hadn't been out in a dog's age so when I saw advertised online at the Reader website that Grrrl Power was having a group art show in trendy South Park I went out to see it. I was dressed stylishly in a black suit and pomegranet shirt after my meeting with a wedding-shoot client earlier that evening so I decided not to change out of my sartorial splendor.

Cool night, as an early spring weather front was approaching, so my jacket was appreciated. Inside the bar at The Whistle Stop the crowd grew thick as Kill Me Tomorrow prepared to play and the band before them, Mika Miko, got a few people even dancing up front.

I saw Kill Me Tomorrow play an amazing set there that night. Got an astonishing series of videos which included an in-depth interview with Dan Wise wherein he describes his other musical project Thin Man (Tall Man would work too as Dan's 6-4) and we also talked about The Next Big Thing breaking on the musical scene. The artistically talented Zack and K8 Wince were good to see up close in performance since when I saw them at The Casbah the crowd was unfriendly near the stage so I didn't want to squeeze in. Those two are great painters as well as musicians of large caliber - too bad they both have jobs now that require they work so much so they don't paint as often as they used to. Or maybe painting was just a phase for them and now they're concentrating solely on music... Whatever it is, check out K8's screen-printed tee-shirts at her Blood & Guts myspace which is the name of her clothing company.

After about three pints of Hefenweizen and three bottles of Pacifica on Saturday night at The Whistle Stop bar in South Bark I hired a cab at the corner of Juniper and Fern and took a $30 ride back home to OB. No need to drive that way after a nice night at the street fair they've got going there in South Park now. The gentrification of that part of San Diego is really something to see.
