Celebrating 25 Years of Friends


I went to the ATT store at the Cable Car turnaround on Powell St. in San Francisco and they had amazing exhibit that celebrated the 25th anniversary of the show Friends:

The first page of the first script
A cue card from the show

The number of Emmy nominations and Emmy Wins the show had


They had some of the fashion from the show (sorry about glare):





And the coolest thing was the set props. The cool thing is that you can have an interactive experience with them:











I never really watched Friends but I thought that this exhibit was cool and I liked that fact it was interactive. It was really nice.

Hardly Strickly Bluegrass Festival 2019


I went to the Hardly Stricktly Bluegrass Festival last month held in Golden Gate Park. Hardly Stricktly is a free festival that has been held since 2001 in Golden Gate Park. It attracts some of the top names in music and goes the whole weekend and it attracts over 500,000 people on a single day. I usually go on Friday and enjoy a lot less people (maybe 100,000 are there):




Shooter Jennings

The Waterboys
Bedouine


Tanya Tucker

Bettye Lavette




Chris Thile recording his show "Live from Here"


Hardly Strickrly is always an amazing time. It is a great and super staple of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Taplands Brewery




I had a chance to catch up with an old friend and we went to Taplands Brewery in Santa Clara, it was my first time there and what a cool place:









Taplands is a cool place with good food and good beer. Glad that I was introduced to it.
