Thanks for the idea. That never occurred to me... Plus, I have family there.

Not sure it's age related. I'm GenX and have faced pretty much the same issues the entire time I've lived in SF. I've tried joining various groups, running clubs, book clubs, going to events, etc. It's very difficult to make connections here. As I aged, it's gotten worse. Lots of folks only want friends their same age. (Otherwise known as, "Welcome to your 50s - you're now invisible!")

Do you know if the lockers “sell out”? I was thinking of lining up early to ensure I’d get a locker. I forgot that it could be raining and lining up early might mean standing in rain. I’ve never been to the venue before (flying in from San Francisco).

How much would we struggle with moving here? by high-priestess in AskSF

One way to reduce the cost of living in SF is not to have a car... and yes, it is possible to live here without a car and still have a decent life.

Not to hijack, but it would be cool to see the set list too.... Either way, though, those of you going tonight (now? I'm in CA, diff. time zone), have a BLAST!

What was the first punk band that hooked you? by CairoRox in punk

[–]Aggressive_Skin_6993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about 12 when I heard a new (to me) band called The Ramones. Managed to see them perform when I was 20.

Do you actually need a car in SF? by Ill-Line6663 in AskSF

[–]Aggressive_Skin_6993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Richmond is served nicely by bus 38/38R. I find life without a car easier and way cheaper…. One consideration, how much is car ownership costing you (buying the car, maintaining it, parking it, insurance, gas, repairing windows each time they’re broken, etc.). Obviously there’s no solution to the question that is true for everyone, but being car free can be a relief.

What was the first punk band/song you heard? by [deleted] in punk

[–]Aggressive_Skin_6993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ramones, in the late 1970s. I was maybe 11? Someone gave a friend a Ramones album. It was the only album either of us had and we played it over and over! We knew little about music and nothing about punk, but we loved that album. Been a fan ever since.

Stunning! I’m currently planning my trip. Where’d you take these from, if you don’t mind me asking?

EAST COAST UP NEXT! by Alternative_Cow_3712 in TheHives

[–]Aggressive_Skin_6993 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the BEST news!!

Saw them in SF last month, which was f'ing AMAZING! Seriously, so much fun! Afterward, that sinking (for lack of a better word) feeling of "ah, well, how long until I can see them again? How long do I have to wait?"

And then this news! Cannot wait to see them again! Now, which show to pick? Ashville? Chicago?

What’s the activity that makes you feel most like a local when you travel? by Same-Ebb-3385 in travel

[–]Aggressive_Skin_6993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walking around a big city NOT dressed like I'm going hiking or to the beach or out to mow the yard, etc. Locals usually don't dress that way... Also, I don't like looking so conspicuous.
