Super 7 are some of the most unorganized asshole fucks I've ever met in the vinyl business. Totally based off of a bad experience @SDCC. Dreamattack will say that I'm overreacting.

Not true at all. The SDCC thing was an absolute CLUSTERFUCK. The single worst experience I've ever had at any SDCC. I could go on and on about it, but it was not as much about the ridiculous disorganization as much as it was about them being complete fucking assholes. I've got no words. Seriously. It's been almost two years and I'm still pissed about it. I just told you to calm down and let it go, so it didn't ruin the rest of your SDCC, and so you didn't go ballistic and bust a cap in somebody's ass. Hahahah.

i have also stayed here, but its not at all cheap: Fairmont Hotel SF

if you have time, cross the golden gate bridge and check out sausalito. you can take a nice boatride back and see Alcatraz, which i think is no longer open to tourists.

also check out twin peaks. and if you like sushi go to BLOWFISH SUSHI

Its a short day trip but you should def try to check out BIG SUR, and try to go to pebble beach and see 17 Mile drive. the coastal drive to big sur is awesome!!! you can also check out the nice beach in Carmel if its hot enough.

Not sure if you are into wine, but Napa rocks. Also, not as far as Carmel, you can check out Santa Cruz. The Monterey aquarium is pretty dope and in the same area as Carmel. You could actually spend some good time in Carmel, Monterey and Santa Cruz with 2 days. Napa is in the opposite direction. You could always stop by San Mateo and say what's up to me. haha
