California Academy of Sciences : Thu., February 16, 6:00pm

Get used to hearing this a lot in the future: "What? It's sold out? Already!?" (followed by a steady stream of invective crude enough to make an Int'l Longshore & Warehouse Union representative blush and back away). The deadly combination of Twitter, the Internet, phones with powerful... More >>

Bhi Bhiman, Vandella, Misisipi Mike & Cree Rider

Bottom of the Hill : Sat., February 18, 9:00pm

It might surprise anyone who's heard his booming tenor of a voice, but San Francisco singer-songwriter Bhi Bhiman didn't always want to be a musician. His first chosen profession? Comedian. Which goes some way toward explaining the sharp humor in his lyrics. "I tried to do [comedy], but... More >>

Garland Jeffreys, Uncle Frank & the Co-Defendants

Slim's : Sat., February 18, 9:00pm

Garland Jeffreys has made it almost to age 70 without having to prove a damn thing.

Smack Dab

Magnet : Third Wednesday of every month, 7:30pm

Buried deep down in the very core of our hearts is the passion to perform. We secretly want to dress in 1960s get-up, strap on a ukulele, and do Tiny Tim covers. No? Maybe that's just us.

Michael Abraham Jazz Session, Gaucho, Dink Dink Dink

Amnesia : Every week Wednesday, 7:00pm

Ever wish you were on the set of your favorite indie music video, dancing in a meadow with flowers and half-naked hipsters surrounding you? Well, good, we don't either.
