I know Ty. Both him and my friend Peter (his roommate then, not sure if they are still living together) moved there more than a year ago, and they both are from the LA area. Mikal Cronin, who started playing with Ty a while back, was also from there. Some of it was money related, but most musicians I know live in Oakland anyway. Ty is so busy he's not really home that often anyways. I do think a garage is probably a step up. I know they couldn't play loud in their apartment in the inner richmond.
