bay area music bloggers go to a ballgame, vol 2: the covers record (live blogging)

For the second year, some of the local music bloggers are getting together at a ballgame to hang (read: nerd) out.

This year’s crowd was Christian, Ben and Emily from The Bay Bridged–Emily was there last year as a Deli SF rep–, Anna from the Deli SF, Will from New & Used Records and Scott from Anyone’s Guess. [Update: Spencer from My Crazy Music Blog (formerly of SFist) was scheduled to be there but had to miss it.] I’ll be representing ipickmynose, of course. Not all the music bloggers could make it for various reasons, but I think this’ll be a pretty decent crowd.

We’re going to today’s Oakland A’s game vs the Florida Marlins at 1:05pm. I’ll be live blogging the game so stay tuned for updates–it’ll be like twitter but probably less entertaining if that’s possible!

12:05pm waiting for bart. and I just realized my battery is low so this live blogging may not work great. we’ll see.

1:07pm first pitch. grounded into a 6-3. I’m already being made fun of for live blogging.

1:35pm discussion of lil wayne, kayne and enimen.

1:57pm they scored on a passed ball. sweet. we’re discussing rss feeds. christian refuses to use the word ‘tweeting’.

2:34pm one of the women here tracks her menstrual cycle on her iphone. I really don’t know what to make of that.

2:35pm. it’s 5-1. when did that happen? also, I can recommend the bbq pork sandwich from the bbq terrace. delicious.

2:59pm. we all feel old at shows, as it turns out.

3:08pm pretty good rendition of take me out to the ballgame. they showed an old woman with a cowbell on the jumbotron during it. insert snl reference here…

3:21pm the wave!! I love the wave!! it went around the stadium at least 8 times! ridiculous.

3:23pm attendance: 22,461.

3:59pm game over. total blow out. good times..
