What people wrote about nights in San Francisco
A guest for Sara Niemietz · Thu, 10 Aug 2023
Sara sang with the Martin Diller Quintet straight up smooth jazz with some jazz versions of Sara's and PMJ hits. It was a intimate and relaxed setting with an appreciative crowd and excellent musicianship all around. Adam Kubota of PMJ played bass.
A guest for Emblem3 · Tue, 14 Jun 2016
Performances at this show were the best - the people that work at this venue...rude and disrespectful to the performers, crews and fans.
A guest for The Polyphonic Spree · Thu, 19 Nov 2015
Every human being should experience this show! Drink the kool-aid and your heart will be pried open. Psychedelic perfection.
Chris M. was there for The Polyphonic Spree · Thu, 19 Nov 2015
Who the f*ck knew that this punk rock choral orchestra made up of 19 band members, including a rocking flutist and two harpists, would create psychedelic magic? Well the killed it tonight at the Independent in San Francisco and I'm ready for more.
A guest for The Charlatans · Mon, 16 Nov 2015
Amazing show. Tim Burgess was ruling! First time seeing the Charlatans! Could not believe the Regency was not sold out. But that made it a more intimate and close-up experience! Monday night in SF... great vibe.

i wasn't able to stay the whole time because my sister got sick and i can't drive, but holychild was literally so great and what i saw of saint motel was wonderful too. my seats weren't wonderful but i really didn't mind. my only complaint was that they wouldn't let liz (of holychild) out after her set, she had announced on stage that she would be in the lobby but seemed really upset that she couldn't make it out and it's not her fault so yeah.
Briggsy for SOJA · Sun, 25 Oct 2015
One of my favorite bands. I've seen SOJA a few times now, including their last show at the Warfield. It wasn't so much the performance that was disappointing, but the sound mix was off and the volume was too high. They need someone new on the soundboard... J Boog was awesome!

A guest 20% for Chris Botti · Sun, 12 Jan 2025
Lackluster. Played only about 10 minutes the rest of the concert were people I did not pay to see & would not go see again. Very very disappointing
