Yeah I knew that about Orange County with all the metal/hardcore stuff. A lot of the pioneers of that genre have come from there, much like the New England area. I just don't want to have to travel all the way down there to catch a show.

Hey grendel do you play hardcore?
I also just moved to S.F. from N.Y.
I had to leave suddenly when my band in N.Y. just got finished recording our demo. shortly after that the band was starting to take off. Then I took off and came back to S.F. and Im kickin myself for leaving. I couldnt survive anymore out there without work I thought Id find it on the west side but havent found ****.
Well I figured if I wasent gonna go back that Id at least try startin a hardcore band out here. Im not even sure if you mentioned anything about being in a band or not but it dosent hurt to ask. If you do play hardcore and your interested in startin somthing out here let me know. I play drums check that **** we just did here [url=http://www.myspace.com/pitfightnyc]Pitfight on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads[/url] tell me if you like.

Yeah I played in a band for about 5 years or so, but we broke up after our drummer quit and our second guitarist decided to move to St. Louis. We had more of a progressive metal sound, though. Along the lines of The Taste of Blood. I was really into them when I played and I wrote most of our songs, so they came out a lot like that haha. I dig Pitfight though! It's always nice to hear a band that keeps it real and knows where their music came from, but I'm done with the whole band thing. It was an awesome time in my life, and I got to do some pretty cool stuff, but it's time to turn the page, ya know? Plus when I do move out to SF it'll be for school, so I wouldn't be focused on rehearsal or writing or shows or touring or anything like that. I hope your experience in SF gets better though. How long have you been in SF? Have you noticed what the hardcore scene is like at all?

I hope you have already found the place,but if not 924 Gilman in Berkley is THE place to be for any hardcore fan in the S.F. area.
Even I know that and I am nowhere near San Francisco.
And I don't think there are any of those ridiculous mosh pit fights there,but I'm not sure.
Here is the link:the 924 Gilman Street Project
