Hardly Strictly Bluegrass

Elvis Costello, San Francisco, October 7, 2006

Went to the 6th Annual Hardly Strictly Bluegrass free concert in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park yesterday, and lucked out by seeing a surprise guest appearance of Elvis Costello with T Bone Burnett’s band. Four stages of simultaneous music provided a lot of space and variety to stroll around and enjoy the many varieties of food booths on the scene. Saw a bit of Billy Bragg and ended with Steve Earle.

Fleet Week, Cal football game, Mill Valley Film Festival, the bluegrass festival, numerous other events all in beautiful sunny weather makes the Bay Area a happening place to be. Folks from other parts of the country will say or think whatever they like about San Francisco, but if you’re not here to enjoy it, you really don’t know where it’s at.
