Yesterday I took my oldest daughter to see Porcupine Tree live in San Francisco at the grand ol Warfield. What a great band, what great songs, what a great live show. They are very dark but if you can handle such things and haven't heard them yet, check their music out on MySpace.
I had a great day with Carly, I am certain we will both always remember it.
Before and after the concert we walked around City Center and the Soma district On the way home we went to the Tenderloin district where I have done some street ministry in past years with homeless teenage prostitutes and drug addicts (that's another story though). Confronted first-person with the mass homelessness, poverty, the empty eyes of hundreds of people we talked to or passed, the hunger, crime, drug addiction and the multitudes of sextrade establishments along our path my daughter and I had powerful discussions about social justice, urban decay, white-flight and Jesus' love for the city and its people.

Conversation: Priceless
On the iPod: Nothing, my ears are ringing a constant G above middle C
