I don't have enough hours in the day to go to all the film festivals, concerts, author readings, dance performances, gallery openings, and other similar events that are occurring all the time in SF.
If you're looking for people who are interested in things outside of tech, you should start going to some of these events, and meeting people. Join the SF Film Society, for a start! Maybe I'll see you around...
- starkfist 16y agoI had enough time to go to all of those things... SF is not a big place. The scene is not that much better than say, Minneapolis.
- ktf 16y ago> I had enough time to go to all of those things... Sorry, maybe I'm taking you too literally here, but I find that hard to believe. You had time to attend every artistic event in SF, and you just weren't satisfied?
- starkfist 16y agoThe last year I lived in San Francisco, I quit being an overworked startup employee and took an easy contracting job. I could leave the office around 4pm most days and made an effort to go to as many art and music things as possible. So you are taking me too literally, but I wasn't exaggerating by much.
- geebee 16y agoI swear I don't mean to be glib here... but doesn't Minneapolis have a particularly vibrant music scene for a city its size? I think you've set a higher bar than a lot of people will realize.
- starkfist 16y agoProbably. It is a unique place. I guess I don't know what other cities to which to compare. It did have a good music scene when I lived there.
