This was really nice to watch. Made me sad though. Grew up in SF. Some of the neighborhoods have their vibe still. But mostly the city I grew up to know and love doesn’t exist anymore 😔
I only have vague images in my mind of commercial areas of San Francisco my first time there in '67 as a 7 yo., then 72, which are memories. RV camped on the Bay front in Sausalito with my daughter for her requested graduation present in '08. It's tragic what has happened to SF. ABSOLUTE mirror image of the PAntifapocalypstandia Wheelerchair Wreck. You get what you voted for. Living rural to that hell hole disaster, I've only gone there once in last 7 years, only by dire need. It was dangerous, squalid filth. Used to go all the time for enjoyment and fun 😝
I thought you were supposed to walk around in the soundscape till all the sound elements aligned/ or were collected, and you were listening to the song "Bloom"
I was here visiting California to see the sights and visiting my uncle with my family they had a huge comedy show concert at Golden Gate Park they had the x games at the wharf it was so epic Travis pastrana from our hometown Annapolis won motocross event was amazing best time I ever had in my life
I swear I saw a short clip of myself @1:13 caught by whomever took the vid! I lived here in July 2000 and was in my early 20’s. I was out and about all the time on the streets exploring because I’ve never seen such a phenomenal city in my life up to that point. How I miss it. But I miss the SF I knew in July 2000. Today’s SF is so markedly different and not in a good way. I don’t think I could live there again in the condition the city is in now.
LOL. SF has always been Democratic. The current state of SF is directly related to the influx of rich people buying up all the property and driving up rents making it near impossible for common people to live there.
San Francisco before tech. There was an artsy vibe and apartments were $800. I remember working at San Francisco center and the pay was $9.75 + commission. There was still a homeless problem with aggressive panhandlers asking and yelling for money. The current homeless and crime problems are sadly out of control. San Francisco is still a beautiful unique city. Thank you for the video and the memories.
I lived in SF right at this time and in fact saw myself in a tiny clip of this vid. I remember 2000 as being the height of tech in the city and the bust came a year and a half later. This was also the year housing was so competitive because everyone was moving up from San Jose. People stood in lines down the block for every open house apartment showing competing with other renters for the same unit- also because of the tech boom.
Hi and thank you. I was a policeman in east RP for 13 years. Watching this reminded me of my years patrolling the streets there. I am still able to recognize intersections and can call out street names and problematic addresses from memory. Not bad considering I left there in 1990. IMO one of the friendliest and beautiful neighborhoods in the city. w
I was working at CompUsa just down the street from Virgin Records! Things were so different back then. Sure as hell didn't smell like sewage back then like it does now..
This is exactly the year I need to go back to. He gave me so many shots and I was too nervous/respectful to do it. I replay those moments so many times, and pretend I do that right thing this time.
Wow! Pac Bell park must have just opened. I live 2-3 hours away from san francisco, and grew up obsessed with baseball and the giants (still am today) I never got to explore as much of this city as I would have liked back in these day., despite visiting more than a few times per year to watch baseball. Thanks for the video.
