Took my first ever trip to SF's famous Bottom Of The Hill concert house/club last night. I say house only because it's basically a converted house. Or at least that's how I saw it.
Lately I've been seeing things in a generally weird way.
Anyway, aside from that the show rocked. Openers Dawes (myspace.com/dawestheband) and Other Lives (myspace.com/otherlives) provided two nice sets before
Delta Spirit came on. My one complaint is that Other Lives didn't have their cello player turned up enough or something because the poor woman sat in the corner and played beautiful-yet-barely audible cello strings.
Delta Spirit came on around 10:30 and played to what seemed like a full house (not the John Stamos kind). Lead man Matthew Vasquez provided a ton of energy - honestly the guy could be considered mentally unstable in some way, he uses a ton of crazy facial expressions and head nods while looking at certain audience members. They played about 4 new songs that they said "would be out later this year" and went through most of last year's Ode To Sunshine.
This show was also my first concert with my new Rebel XS D-SLR. I didn't take many pictures but still got a few decent shots of Vasquez. Once I buy a better lens I'll be set for that part of attending concerts (I'm still using the stock 18-55 mm lens right now).
Concert rating: 8/10
