    Only in San Diego...

    Went to the SD House Parties Rivals! bash last night in Banker's Hill. I really had no idea what to expect. I just knew that Grand Ole Party and The Muslims were playing in a basement. It was in a nice quiet part of town. Well except for the jet's flying 20 feet about the place.

    The Muslims went on around 10:30 and the place was not as full as I thought it would be. But by the time GOP went on at midnight the place was packed to the brims. The 800 square foot "basement" was hot, very packed, and very fun. Sure it is a huge fire hazard, but ou gotta take risks to get rewards. The Muslims killed it. It was not too packed so I could see them. The best part was when the lead singer (Matt I think) took a puff of a joint that was going around in front,in the middle of a solo. So rock 'n roll.

    GOP was way too packed to see. The sound was acutally pretty good for a basement party. People were having fun and that's what were all there for. Kudos to the gals at SD House Parties. Everyone who put the event on were super nice and welcoming. It felt like were invited personally. This can only happen in San Diego. NY,LA, and SF ain't got nothing on this. Our scene is blowing up and SD House Parites is helping establish some SD music culture. Let's go to the next one!
