YOLO List: Week 17


Credit: Jason Shindler

Knocked another “must see” band off my list this Friday (Sonny & The Sunsets)…which isn’t saying much, because any band I haven’t seen is a must see. Anyway, it was one of those shows where the band I wanted to see met my expectations, which weren’t that high to begin with. It was a folk rock band, so I guess I shoulda known I wasn’t going to get the energy I wanted out of a show on a Friday. I did, on the other hand, find out about a San Francisco band called Weekend and the genre of “shoe gaze.” Very dream like, experimental music driven by sounds most would qualify as noise. Something about it gets to me though, and I threw one of their songs on this week’s YOLO. Enjoy!
