WTF: Women's, Trans/Genderqueer, and Femmes' Night Bike Kitchen Last Monday of every month, 6:30pm South of Market
In the name of Miriam Bengoetxea, Basque bike engineer (of Orbea Orca fame), we command you to attend WTF: the Women, Transgenderqueer, and Femme bike-fix night! Bengoetxea is one of the only women in the world designing carbon-fiber bicycle frames, partly because she's had the support of the... More >>
A Christmas Memory Theatre Rhinoceros Mon., December 15, 7:00pm South of Market
Holiday shows can make you as sick as a child after a night alone with a gingerbread house, and Theater Rhino seems headed that way with its Staged Reading of Truman Capote’s A Christmas Memory. The storyline is overloaded with syrup: There's a young boy and his old “friend”... More >>
"Club Six 10-Year Anniversary" Club Six Fri., December 5, 9:00pm South of Market
In its 10 years, Club Six has given a platform to international artists as well as budding locals in a number of genres ranging from reggae and hip-hop to house and techno. It has helped to clean up Sixth Street, and even had its silver screen debut in 2005 as a set for the movie Rent. Owner... More >>
Female Mechanics Calendar – 2009 Luscious Garage Sat., December 13, 4:00pm South of Market
When we were little hippie girls, we wanted to be either a ballerina or a truck driver when we grew up. True story! We had good role models, apparently. (Let's hear it for Free to Be … You and Me.) If you need the possiblities for your own future shaken up, no matter how old you are, check... More >>
Little Joy, The Dead Trees, Red Cortez Slim's Tue., December 9, 8:00pm South of Market
The Strokes are officially on “hiatus” until early 2009, but really, does anyone care? They aren’t the same hungry young Manhattanites who released Is This It in 2001. That raw, disaffected downtown sound has grown stale over the years from a combination of lackluster live shows,... More >>
Mike Relm, Peanut Butter Wolf, Party Ben Mezzanine Fri., December 5, 9:00pm South of Market
Bay Area natives Mike Relm and Peanut Butter Wolf (the latter lives in L.A., but he grew up here so we can still claim him) have taken their DJing into new dimensions over the last several years by mixing videos with vinyl. Relm tends to weave together swathes of film and television samples,... More >>
"Pink Slip: A Fugly Xmas" The Stud Tue., December 16, 11:00pm South of Market
For over a decade, Trannyshack and hostess Heklina wooed us with shocking drag shows and celebrity appearances. But there’s a new sheriff in town and her name is Virginia Suicide. Her variety show, Pink Slip, consists of 10 (more or less) acts of drag queens singing (not lip syncing) and... More >>
Edward II San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Thu., December 4, 7:00pm South of Market
The main takeaway from Milk -- don’t worry, we’re not going to spoil the ending -- is the importance of gays and lesbians expressing who they truly are. Gay expression, with all its iconoclasm, eroticism, and mystery, is the overriding theme of an ongoing Derek Jarman retrospective.... More >>
Sébastian Tellier, Hearts Revolution, Lilofee, Beat Electric DJs Black Shag, B.T. Magnum, & Safety Scissors Mezzanine Thu., December 4, 9:00pm South of Market
When French pop arose fresh-faced and well-coiffed in the early ’60s, few would have pictured it a generation later in the hands of a guy who looks like a biker in casual Yves Saint-Laurent. But gaze into the hairy, shaded face of Sebastien Tellier (after you listen to his new album,... More >>
Winterkälte, Marching Dynamics, DJ Rtype, DJ Bonk, DJ Intoner DNA Lounge Sun., December 7, 9:00pm South of Market
Harsh. Painful. Masochistic. No, I’m not talking about suffering through those nightmarish Sex & the City DVDs with your girlfriend — I’m talking about Winterkälte. This German electronic duo titled its 1999 album Drum ’n’ Noise because that’s precisely what... More >>
"Wonder-Full V: A Tribute to the Wonder of Stevie" Mighty Sat., December 13, 9:00pm South of Market
After more than a dozen years away, Stevie Wonder graced the Bay Area with several local concert appearances in 2007 and 2008. Ardent crowds from Saratoga to Concord showed that it is something we could definitely get used to, but in the absence of that luxury, there is a failsafe annual event... More >>
2008 Dance-Along Nutcracker: Bah Humbug Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Forum Sat., December 13, 2:30pm
more dates/times
South of Market
Some people don't like ballet. Perhaps that's because the moldy French dance form is usually racist, sexist, gender-restrictive, looksist, anorexia-inducing, and often requires plastic surgery and dangerous drug use. Also, it pays shit wages and then spits you out when you're half grown up and... More >>
Angry Black White Boy Intersection for the Arts Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., October 23 until Sun., December 7, 8:00pm South of Market
Adam Mansbach's novel Angry Black White Boy must have pissed off a lot of people at first. It features a protagonist who not only hates himself for being white instead of black, but who also hates other white people even more. That's some damn tricky material! Yet the book has been incredibly... More >>
"Bobby Hutton Memorial Benefit Art Show" The Luggage Store Daily from Sat., November 29 until Sat., December 6 South of Market
Rest assured that artist Emory Douglas’ images of protest are not based on experiences glimpsed from afar -- Douglas was the Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party. His graphic art has the immediacy of a lobbed brick, from the boy selling Panther All Power to the People newspapers... More >>
"Warhol’s Jews: Ten Portraits Reconsidered" Contemporary Jewish Museum Daily from Sun., October 12 until Sun., January 25 South of Market
When Andy Warhol's "Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century" was displayed at the Jewish Museum in New York in 1980, it got mixed reviews. The New York Times said "its contribution to art is nil," while Art Forum answered, "The paintings are staggering." Here's your chance to decide for... More >>
"StoryCorps StoryBooth" Contemporary Jewish Museum Daily from Sun., October 12 until Sun., October 11 South of Market
Those who set their clock radios every morning to awaken to the dulcet murmur of NPR know what it is to start out their Fridays verklempt. The sound of someone’s voice, often gravelly with age, emits from the speakers, maybe talking about World War II, or how she met her husband. It could... More >>
The Culture Bus Howard and New Montgomery Daily South of Market
We all love to bag on Muni. It's late, it's dirty, somebody peed. But the bus system appears to have done something very right this time. The Culture Bus, the 74X line, roves the city from museum to landmark to tea garden, every day. Pay the fare, ride all day, and you're set. No parking, no... More >>
"Demon Days" Mezzanine Thu., December 11, 10:00pm-3:00am South of Market
Launched in 2005 and named in response to our ongoing wars in the Middle East and deadly hurricanes at home, Demon Days is a nationally touring club night presented by pioneering Detroit techno DJ and producer Carl Craig and his New York–based DJ partner, underground music maven Gamall... More >>
Downtown San Francisco Tour South Beach Harbor Daily, 10:00am South of Market
If Hollywood ever tries its hand at Escape from San Francisco, we hope there are kayaks involved. There just aren’t enough kayaks in action films, you know? We imagine the little boats riding a tsunami, hurtling toward the bad guys who have taken Coit Tower hostage, somehow managing to... More >>
Erotic Reading Circle Center for Sex & Culture Fourth Wednesday of every month South of Market
Come join readers and share your erotic writing! Bring something to read or just be part of the appreciative circle of listeners. This is a great place to try out new work (ask for comments if you like), or get more comfortable reading for other people. Longtime writers will bring their... More >>

South of Market
Picture local drag performer Matthew Martin, one hand outstretched towards a man in a disheveled Santa suit. Martin (as Rue McClanahan) calls out to fellow thespian Pollo Del Mar (as Betty White), who's busy showing Santa the door: "Rose! I had to stand in line for an hour to sit on his lap!"... More >>

"Planet Big" The Stud Second Sunday of every month, 5:00pm
more dates/times
South of Market
If you think San Francisco’s gay club scene is populated exclusively by fabulous gangs of slender men in tank tops, you’ve overlooked important niche parties like Planet Big, where fabulous gangs of large men in tank tops rule the dancefloor. “Planet Big” is a gay party for... More >>

By the time you read this, the election will be over: You'll know whether Proposition 8 was defeated or not. Since we're writing this from the other side of the past, we're going to pretend that IT WAS DEFEATED! Yay! This leaves you with only one major problem: You have too many gay weddings to... More >>
The 1000 Journals Project San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Daily from Thu., November 20 until Sun., April 5 South of Market
A few years ago, Someguy (he's an artist) sent out 1,000 blank journals into the world with a humble request: Hey, you holding the blank journal, fill it up! People did. Some people did. Some sent their journals back to Someguy; others kept them in circulation, and they traveled the world. A... More >>
