The good, the bad, and the fugly—a breakdown of the weekend

The good- Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival

In spite of the arctic weather (slightly better on Sunday than Saturday), thousands of San Franciscans turned out for the largest free Bluegrass Festival in the world. Some of them even seemed to know who the hell it was they were watching! I even spotted Jake Gyllenhaal, in town for the filming of Zodiac. He seems even cuter now that I know he’s an Emmylou Harris fan.

The bad- Lavende Lounge

Their owner needs to learn that you can’t throw 2 DJs off the decks (in spite of the fact that the dance floor is full) just because you don’t like breaks. Lame. Stick to what you do best- pretentious, overpriced brunch and weak ass cocktails.

The fugly- SF Muni

They raised rates, but then again they cut service, so we got that going for us. I spent about 2 hours total waiting for buses this weekend. When it takes an hour and a half to get from Golden Gate Park to Hayes Valley, something is terribly wrong. Oh, and you smell, Muni. Seriously, take a bath.
