or as I like to call it, "stay the hell away from the U-District at all costs weekend."

I live in the U District and while it's nice to not have to dodge cars on the Ave, it's a harem of art whoring, overpriced food whoring and political whoring.

Fairs didn't used to be like this. There was a lot more music, particapatory art and performances.

Me and my girl had a great time.We also saw that live rocknroll in the bar is still freakin great these days. We saw Sugar Farm and that duo is dynamic.
We got some great purchase deals, everyone we ran into was nice and we definatly are going to Folk life next week.
Party,party,party.Much props UDSF
whoohooooo-
