Well, it looks like I skimmed the post too quickly and the Terminal 3 location is in fact in the post-security area. I should have recognized the United wing anyhow. In any case, getting a plastic food container through security is basically whether or not the security staff were particularly vigilant or not. The security staff are looking for liquids and gels anyhow, not sandwiches. The other two locations are still pre-security, so anyone can attend.

RobinSF, These concerts are held in the concourse area before the security checkpoints so anyone can attend (that's how I took my video). As a matter of fact, I just hopped onto BART to get to SFO. The Terminal 1 performance area is on the mezzazine level above the main concourse walkaway and security screening area. The International Terminal performance area is in the concourse hallway not too far from the ticket counters. I haven't been to the third performance site but the pictures above show it.

@RobinSF"one couple who sat and ate identical sandwiches out of identical tupperwares." I call bullshit. You cannot get any food in tupperware through security at SFO. They need to charge you 12 bucks for a stale turkey sandwich and 8 bucks for a bottle of Heineken once you get inside the security zone. Bastards.Ah-ha! As luck would have it, looky here! = http://sfist.com/attachments/Christopher Rogers/IMG_5931o.jpg Right in the center you can see the composed & calm traveling couple. And the bespectacled guy is clearly putting the blue lid on top of his tupperware! That's right! SFist! When doubts are raised and considered regarding tupperware, we can back up our Journalism with Hard Evidence! You're totally right, Robin -- these folks must have landed at SFO to have food with them...

I was sitting behind where these two were sitting and stared in wonderment! But there it was, plain as day: tupperware. And home-made sandwiches. I wouldn't kid you on a subject of such importance. Maybe it'll show up in some of the pictures... That DuNord show was good too. Can't wait for him to come 'round again.

I saw Jason and some other dude working the electronic thingies they use for their sound at Cafe Du Nord a couple years back after Granddaddy split up. Basic, torn down and real. Awesome show.

Some of these performances can be surreal. Here is Zoe Keating covering "Time Is Running Out" by Muse from this summer's inaugural You Are Hear festival. (Goddammit, I hate these Typepad comment servers.)
