Music Time
We went to the Arcade Fire concert in Berkeley last night. They put on a good show - sounding much like their album and putting a good stage presence out there.
I visited Berkeley a bit when my brother went to school there, and then again later when I lived in the bay area, so I have a few local places that I know and love... one of which is Zachary's Chicago Pizza. We attempted to go to Zachary's last night, but due to the size of our group (there were 10 of us) and the timeline for being at the concert, it didn't work out like I'd hoped.
We opted to park the van at the concert and venture out into the city on foot instead. I had a few other places marked out on a map, and a pretty good idea of how to get there, but when I asked directions from a local Berkelian, they looked at me like I was on dope for wanting to walk that far. Few options remaining, we headed down the hill to see what we could find along the way.
Luck was with us, as we came upon a pretty tasty pizza by the slice place, and sat down to devour our dinner and enjoy some beer.
The show ended late, and we finally made our way home around 2am - it was a long night, but it was worth it - a great show, some tasty eats and a good group of people.
