Summer, How You Make Us Suffer
Summer is officially here, and like always, Sky Pilots will be hitting the outdoor festival circuit pretty hard. Shows in the woods, tunes on the beach, and late-night desert jams, complete with bonfires, stupid costumes, and peyote.
Of course these are utter lies. We don’t have a single festival date lined up, and we’re not that into the outdoors in the first place. For Christ’s sake, Pat doesn’t even recycle. But we do have a full summer of shows at your favorite San Francisco bars and clubs (all safely indoors), plus some out-of-towners (equally well guarded against the elements, we hope).
First up is the Hemlock Tavern with The Drogues and Painted Bird. The week following, we’ll blaze through Sacramento to play with Swims, and destroy the boardwalk in Santa Cruz the very next night. The next week will find us on stage with Shotgun Monday, from Minneapolis, and Turn Me On Dead Man, from right here in San Francisco. Finally, on August 26, this whole “summer” thing will begin drawing to a close with a night of rock at Balazo Gallery with friends Birds and Batteries, Low Red Land, and Tartufi. Show details.
