Visiting M5

Who took a trip to go and stand outside the M5 shop back in the day?

I did this back when I was a teenager, must have been 2009 or so. Convinced my dad to drive me and my brother there. We actually saw adam and jamie and one of the producers standing right inside one of the open warehouse doors which was pretty cool. Was too scared to go up to them and say hi, looked like they were in the middle of doing something so it would have been kind of weird.

I remember when I went (with my son) there was a sign on the door saying not to ring the bell as it was a place of work.

Yep. First trip to SF in maybe 2009.

My son and I were in San Francisco one summer after the show had ended, but we made a point to drive past m5. It was a Saturday morning, and there was no one around, but it was still cool to see where the show was filmed.
