Today, Inna and I went to listen to a concert by Mashina Vremeni (Машина времени) at The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco.
The concert was scheduled for 20:00. We left San Jose early so that we would be able to find parking at the Palace of Fine Arts.
This is an iconic rock group (like Beatles for Americans) to Russians. Inna knew the lyrics of most of their songs by heart.
Mashina Vremeni (Машина времени) is a Russian rock band founded in 1969. Mashina Vremeni was a pioneer of Soviet rock music and remains one of the oldest still-active rock bands in Russia. The band's music incorporates elements of classic rock, blues, and bard's song. Mashina Vremeni's best known members are Andrei Makarevich (founder, principal singer-songwriter, public face of the band), Alexander Kutikov (bass player and producer/sound engineer), and Evgeny Margulis (guitarist/songwriter).
