Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival-Golden Gate Park Oct 3-5 - thatguy - 08-31-2008
I'm going to Sigur Ros at the Greek on the 3rd, but I'm seriously thinking about staying up there and going to some of the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival

I have a strict no MC Hammer policy.
don't beleive that guy - Drunk Monk - 09-01-2008
i don't beleive tg really goes to shows. i think he just watched the vids on the net.
Re: don't beleive that guy - thatguy - 09-01-2008
Hey, I go to shows, especially when they come to me. I just went to Camper van Beethoven at the Catalyst on Sat. Missed Cracker, tho. I had to leave...

If you'd been at that Camper show, there'd be a review on this forum. CvB? Really? Are they even still playing together? No, I think it's just another web vid you watched....
:ANAL:
Re: i don't believe you - thatguy - 09-10-2008
CvB...yes, they still play from time to time. Most recent (besides the show that I really attend) was up at Fort Mason I think over the summer.
Tomorrow starts the 4th annual Camper/Cracker Campout at
Pappy and Harriet's Pioneertown Palace near Joshua Tree. Essentially any of the CvB family tree are possible performers: Monks of Doom, Eugene Chadbourne, etc...I'd go, but I'm trying to get ship a product next week and I'm buried at work. At the Catalyst show, I made a pact with some friends to go next year.
Here's a flickr photo set from a previous year: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cwsteeds/sets/72157594402257305/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/cwsteeds/s ... 402257305/</a><!-- m -->
The Catalyst CvB show was good, but not as good as when I saw them there two years ago, right after their new album came out. That album/show was a concept album and they played a lot from it and introduced a lot of the material. It's a really good album if you haven't heard it. Anyway, this show they played mostly a lot of older material. I can't remember what they opened with. It might have been Pictures of Matchstick Men. A lot of their klezmer-ish instrumentals, one or two songs of New Roman Times (Long Plastic Hallway). Take the Skinheads Bowling. The Day that Lassie Went to the Moon. More fun, bouncy instrumentals. They would have been a great band to play at a party in your living room. They didn't play Life Is Grand, or She Divines Water, or The Ambiguity Song which are some of my favs.
I was bummed to have missed Cracker. I like a lot of their stuff too, and I've never seen them. Oh well...
