This week’s random photo comes from a show at Pier 17. The full moon was spectacular. This picture doesn’t do it justice, sorry for the low quality I’ll also apologize for the weird crop, but I didn’t want to feed a bunch of concert-goers faces to our AI overlords.
The show was Dropkick Murphys and Bad Religion on Saturday. Excellent show, and it’s a nice change to see a punk show in an outdoor venue on a beautiful night verses the dark clubs in which I’ve seen every other show like this. By the way, I think this show ended with the biggest pit I’ve ever witnessed. Well done, Dropkicks.

Speaking of history, here’s a first-hand account of creating the local ISP I mentioned above.
