Yeasayer Concert in San Francisco

I’m going to see Yeasayer in concert this Saturday here in San Francisco at Bimbos. After seeing Minus the Bear live last night, I’m really really excited for Friday. I’ve been reading online that Yeasayer in concert is a great experience.

Since I’ve been super busy I have yet to write about the group, but to sum it up their style, I would say it is a blend of indie rock and world music. Yeasayer is said to put on a killer concert. They’re from my hometown of Brooklyn, New York. I was actually just back in Brooklyn where a good number of my relatives and grandparents still live.

Bay Ridge, where my grandparents reside, has changed greatly. I can’t hear that enough from my grandparents who have been there since the 1920s. Sidetracking, but quite humorous, my grandparents said not long ago a brownstone down the block went on the market through the owner. The open house was set for the upcoming weekend. That weekend over 100 Chinese people were outside interested in the real estate.

The police were actually called as neighbors thought a riot or protest was taking place. The neighborhood has become heavily populated with Chinese immigrants. My grandparents say they are really friendly and have cash to pay for the houses selling in the $900,000s.

Back on track, I’ll be sure to review the Yeasayer concert and delve more deeply into why they are one of my top bands right now.
