November 6th
Weird Al Yankovic @ Fox Theater – Oakland for $45
If you like him go and laugh a lot.
November 8th
The Bangles @ The Fillmore – SF for $27-$40
Old school classic rock but pop really. Kinda worth it, specially if you are an oldies freak.
November 9th
Lykke Li @ Fox Theater – Oakland for $35
Art Deco to the max
She is a bit of pop and indie rock. I was excited to go see her but a friend said they were disappointed with her performance. Otherwise I would have said worth it.
November 11th
Mary J. Blige @ Fox Theater – Oakland for $60-$120
Way over priced and she is an OK but I am not going.
GWAR @ The Regency Ballroom – SF for $23
Small and intimate
This is always a fun performance if you like heavy death metal. The Regency is going to get trashed though. Quiet reasonably priced for the band and small venue. I’d consider it. It is a great experience… Heck I Peachy Puffed one of their concerts.
November 12th
They Might Be Giants @ The Fillmore – SF $30
This is an indie rock band with a really funky sound. It is quite reasonable though and should be a great show.
November 14th
Feist @The Warfield – SF $42
An old opera house
An indie punk sound with a new vibe. It has potential for a great show.
November 16th
New Found Glory @ The Regency Ballroom – SF for $22-$24
Pop punk rock, which for the price and the place could be fun.
Enrique Bunbury & Zoe – Nob Hill Masonic Auditorium – SF for $40-110
November 21st
Katy Perry @ Oracle Arena – Oakland for $39.50-$49.50
Really people? POP! Yet people love her… to say we saw her, I guess. Reasonable price but huge venue which means tiny view and everything else over priced.
Noah & the Whale with Niki Lane @ Great American Music Hall – SF for $21
A cheap show that could be a lot of fun. I don’t know much about them but the venue has good taste.
GAMH always seems to have a good pulse on music
November 26st
Orgone w/Allen Stone @ Great American Music Hall – SF for $16
Again don’t know them much but the Venue is worth checking out for the price.
Dec 2nd
Sting: Back To Bass @ Nob Hill Masonic Auditorium – SF for $51-$150
So private!
Sting no more to be said if you love him go for it. It is a small venue so you will enjoy. A bit pricy so decide well.
My Morning Jacket @ Bill Graham Civic Auditorium – SF for $45
It is HUGE! They will be tiny.
If you love them go but it is a big venue and seems over priced.
Los Lobos @ The Fillmore – SF for $42-55
Rock band, old school but some great guitars. Love the location, OK price a bit up there.
December 7th
Puscifer w/ Carina Round @ Palace of Fine Arts – SF $55
Serentity about to be disturbed
Seems over priced but much just be funny enough to go. I mean a hard core metal band in this venue?! Hmm
December 13th
NOW 99.7 Triple Ho Show 2.0 w/ Jessie & the Toy Boys, Breathe Carolina, Taio Cruz, Selena Gomez, Gym Class Heroes, LMFAO, Pitbull @ HP Pavilion – San Jose for $34.50-$143
It’s a mad bundle mix with some good names and bad names and all dependent on if you like the music. The cheap prices have nose bleed in the seats to spending a lot to be one of many. I would pass.
December 23rd
Infected Mushroom @ The Fillmore – SF for $47
A great DJ group that does trance with lots of instrumentals. It seems seriously pricey but they are well know and very good. Yet no room really to dance.
2012
Janurary 20th & 21st
NOFX with No Use For A Name, Old Man Markley & Guests @ The Fillmore – SF for $25-35
A old school punk band which I am considering going! If for no other reason than to say I saw them. It’s not that pricey.
Small dance but very small venue
January 28th
O.A.R. @ The Fillmore – SF for $32-45
A country rock band that has a feel good vibe most of the time. Its a good show.. decent priced. I would be in for this.
