The Seagulls

Saturday night’s alright for retro punk, with Geri Vahey and the Seagulls making the scene. Micah and I met up in San Francisco and did a bike ride on the waterfront to Fort Mason and back. Then after some tasty empanadas at the Ferry Building, we headed to the Mission to check out Geri’s band.

First up was a teenage band doing their best Green Day. Meanwhile we took in the vibe of run-down, dimly lit bar – cash only, mind you.

The Seagulls played music reminiscent of my high school and college, with sounds grounded in punk rock–a driving fast rhythm played with a fun, energetic attitude. It was great to catch up with Phil Vahey, the proud husband and band groupie.
