Go see the Decemberists!
As an fyi, Smack, thought I'd let you know that on my recent jaunt to San Fran, I (1) had a ticket to but missed Echo & the Bunnymen @ the Fillmore [complete idiot mistake; I had it in my mind the show was Friday, so I went to the movies -- the show was Thursday, while I watched "Mystic River"], and (2) as a wee consolation for the missed show, I caught Guster @ the Warfield. Good venue -- I had a seat middle front row of the mezzanine. Only advantage to seeing a show alone.
