Caught Bria Salmena in SF. Not a total punk thing. She & her bandmates played in Toronto's Frigs and later in Orville Peck's touring band. On Sub Pop now. I love the first Cuntry Covers EP and the new LP. Show was weird. Early on a Saturday. 50 people max in the audience (great venue though). Took some good photos.
Last week caught a Melvins / Napalm Death show. I've seen the Melvins before but it's been a while. Never seen Napalm Death. Opening bands (Weedeater) and someone else were good if you're into that thing. Fine, good. Melvins were great, I didn't recognize a lot of what they played but I haven't kept up on them since 00 really. Napalm Death were surprisingly (to me) hella fun. Had low expectations tbh but they came out raging. Glad I went.
Also caught open mic stand up comedy after seeing Stop Making Sense again at the art house theater. Hit and miss as those things tend to be. Overall fun & recommended. Host was really funny.
