NYC Pride

I’m thankful to live in a city where marriage discrimination hasn’t existed for the past year. What’s up Cali? What keeping you so backwards? People are people so why should it be?  Anyways, B and I checked out the NYC version of the Pride parade yesterday, and these are a few pics off his camera.

After escaping the crowds, B and I headed over to the Bowery Hotel‘s rooftop bar, where we caught a set by my hometown faves, Geographer.  I’ve gushed about them already here.  I found out about it last minute, from their FB page.  Good thing!  The show was intimate (only about 50 people, max!), fun and all around awesome.  Cool venue too.  I was soo excited to see them play.  I’ve been missing SF loads lately, so their set was a welcome reminder of SF.  I was major SUPERFAN.

It was the perfect cap to our weekend.  So was this awesome mural B and I happened upon while walking over to the Bowery Hotel.  It was fate, these shorts matched perfectly.

B and I went to see one of my favorite local bands last Saturday, Geographer.  They were amazing, of course.  Check them out here.  They are amazeballs.  Seriously.  And watch this video below.  You will fall in love, I guarantee it.

I was having a wardrobe emergency trying to get ready for this show.  I swear, even with my exploding closet, I had nothing to wear.  So I busted out the fail safe backups: stripes, red lips and black skinny pants.  B took my photos, and we ran to the bus stop.  We missed the bus by half a block.  fail.  If there is one thing I learned growing up in San Francisco is never run for the bus.  You will almost always miss it, you’ll be even angrier for running late, you will end up a sweaty mess and you’ll look like that guy running for the bus and missing it.  Never again, I should have known better as a native San Franciscan.

Have I mentioned how much I love Geographer yet?  Check this one out too, you will pee your pants from having your mind blown.
