playing in fog

About 6 months ago I was at a bar called Cafe du Nord in San Francisco, listening to local "country" bands (the court and spark, the real sippin' whiskeys) when this girl came over and put a flyer for a website on my table. I picked up the flyer, and the name immediately jumped out at me - Playing in Fog. As an outspoken fog proponent myself, the mere mention of fog piqued my interest. So I took the flyer home and made a point to check it out later.

Since then Playing in Fog has been my most reliable and frequently used source of music recommendations. A couple of local indie rock fans run the site, recommending and reviewing SF bay area rock shows almost every day of the week. When I feel like going out to a show but don't have a clue where, I turn to playinginfog.com and usually find 3 shows playing this week that look promising. Just last night I headed out to see Thee More Shallows at playingfog's recommendation and had a great time listening to mellow new music. So my advice to you is to surf over to playing in fog and pick out a good show to see this week. I realize, however, that my blog readership is a) small, b) geographically diverse, and c) not necessarily into geek rock. So I take it upon myself to attend more shows on your behalf.
