Let's see....not much to say about this one, as I missed his original band American Music Club, even though they were based near to me in San Francisco.

So...I'll point out that when this was originally broadcast in 1997, the Mission Rock Resort was a joint named Kelly's Mission Rock, and was surrounded by a scruffy industrial neighborhood.  It was a five minute walk to the San Francisco Hells Angels Club House.  Not a bad neighborhood...but not FANCY.  In the last few years it has gentrified. A studio apartment can run you $2,700/month.


"Let's have a drink at the Mission Rock

Watch the Oakland lights

Across the dry dock

Watch the blue, blue sky

Darken like an inhalation

Over the graveyard of ships

And your conversation"


The ship graveyard and dry dock are gone, now you have shops selling bubble tea. Times change.
