Written on the way home
What people wrote about nights here
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.

I'm speechless...

Some of the best moments of my life have been at fishbone concerts. :)

Epic, as always! They always bring the vibe.

Great performance! I've wanted to see Fishbone for a long time (1987)
A guest for Helmet · Tue, 15 Jul 2014
Great show, love Helmet, however I would've liked to have heard their material from the Meantime album.
Thereesa was there for Luscious Jackson · Sat, 31 May 2014
I saw Luscious Jackson for the first time last night. I have been a fan for a long time so I made sure not to miss out on this. I dragged my brother with me and we both had a lot of fun. I would love to see them live again!
Five questions about the building, not the gig
What this room is like
Nobody has said what this room sounds like
6,993 concerts logged here and not one answer yet. Five taps - the place itself, then the sound, the sightlines, getting in and out and what the bar charges - and this page starts telling people what The Independent is actually like to stand in. There's room to write about it as well - one entry each, added to over the years.

Every human being should experience this show! Drink the kool-aid and your heart will be pried open. Psychedelic perfection.
