Murals and the Multi-Ethnic Mission

Women's Building : 1:00 p.m. second Sat. of every month; 1:00 p.m. fourth Sun. of every month

In the beginning it was, of course, Ohlone Indian. Then it was Spanish-Ohlone. Were there Russians? It was Italian. Then it was Irish and German. As far as we can tell, the Mission District was never Chinese, but this is San Francisco, so why shouldn't it have been? It was Mexican, and then it... More >>

Previously Secret Information

Stage Werx 446 : 7:00 p.m. third Sun. of every month

Comedians are “always depressed,” we hear. After we’re done fervently hoping it isn’t true, we wonder how “funny” and “depressing” ever came to be separate categories, especially post-Mitch Hedberg. At Previously Secret Information, they aren’t, sort... More >>

Comedy Returns to El Rio!

El Rio : 8:00 p.m. second Mon. of every month

Mondays get a bad rap. It's a day often associated with depression, anxiety, and melancholy in pop culture. Think of "Monday, Monday" by the Mamas & the Papas, "Manic Monday" by the Bangles, and of course the memetastic "Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays" phrase popularized by... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Comedy, Arts

Smack Dab

Magnet : 7:30 p.m. third Wed. of every month

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. However, we can all agree on the burning desire to perform and create art. The hard part (besides mustering... More >>

"Death Guild"

DNA Lounge : 9:30 p.m. every Mon.

Dying to dance, brood, or peel the yellow wallpaper off the wall? Well, so are these fun freaks. Join them at Death Guild, won't you? Every Monday night at DNA Lounge, gaggles of 18-and-over moody bastards come to show off their blackest attire and eyeliner while pouting to goth, industrial,... More >>

South of Market Nightlife, Music

"Lost & Found"

Make-Out Room : 9:30 p.m. every Tue.

While most '60s soul parties are dedicated to uptempo bangers, Lost & Found takes a different tack. Thrown Tuesday nights at the Make-Out Room, it's an evening dedicated to the slower side of soul with a playlist that sounds tailor-made for some hip '60s prom. Veteran DJs Lucky and Primo...

Mission/ Bernal Heights Nightlife, Music

Sketch Tuesdays

111 Minna Gallery : 6:00 p.m. third Tue. of every month

Sketch Tuesdays, founded in 2006, is a monthly event where 20 or so local artists hang out and make their art on a small scale. When the artwork is completed it becomes available to purchase by the audience mingling nearby -- and often for cheap! If you like the funky fresh art up on the wall... More >>

Bawdy Storytelling

Verdi Club : Second Wed. of every month

“We’ve all done some fucked-up shit,” says Dixie De La Tour: going home with the wrong person, getting in over our heads in a BDSM scenario, sitting through that timeless, endless feature Nightmare Date II: The Boundary-Free Zone. We’ve all also been blown away by indoor... More >>

Pug Sunday

Alta Plaza Park : 2:30 p.m. first Sun. of every month

They're squat, fat, and prone to a myriad of health issues. They resemble miniature Ewoks and can be heard blocks away by their heavy snorting and grunting. Of course the people of San Francisco want to dedicate one day each month to this creature, the pug. Pug owners, enthusiasts, and friends... More >>

"Gifts from the Gods: Art and the Olympic Ideal"

Legion of Honor : Every Tue., Wed., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun. until January 27

During the last Summer Olympics, nearly 70 million Americans watched Shanghai’s opening ceremony -- it was an impressive if somewhat eerie phantasm (a gymnast ran on air, the weather was controlled by scientists, and a little girl was given a “suitable” face to match her... More >>

Paxton Gate Storyhour

Paxton Gate's Curiosities for Kids : 11:00 a.m. every Thu.

Have you ever seen a Gritchen in your kitchen? Or dared to dance with the One-Legged Zantz? We can’t think of a better time to start than during the final days before Christmas. Long out of print, Don’t Bump the Glump was Shel Silverstein’s first and strangest collection of... More >>

Some Thing

The Stud : Every Fri.

The unGoogleable inheritor of the Trannyshack art-drag scepter is known as Some Thing; each Friday brings a new theme via semi-pun. It could be simple, such as Some Thing Good, or it could be A Li’l Sumptin’ Some Thing, which is funny but what are you going to wear? The first show... More >>

"The Teenage Dance Craze"

The Knockout : 10:00 p.m. last Fri. of every month

We're just dreaming, but here is our dream: to see dive-bar dancers whose attention to detail matches the obsession of Bay Area vintage-music DJs. For example, at Lonely Teardrops' doo-wop night about a year ago, we lost our composure and requested a Claudine Clark song. "I have one," the DJ... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Music

"Housepitality"

F8 : 9:00 p.m. every Wed.

Like hunger, the urge to dance can strike at rather inopportune moments. When you get that midweek itch, Housepitality is something you can turn to for relief. Put on by Miguel Solari and PillowTalk's Michael Tello, it's a weekly affair dedicated to the deeper strains of dance music. Swing by... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Nightlife, Music

Gaucho, Eric Garland's Jazz Session, Dink Dink Dink

Amnesia : 7:00 p.m. every Wed.

The term "gaucho" commonly refers to nomadic South American cowboys, which is pretty indicative of how the San Francisco band Gaucho plays its version of Gypsy jazz: in Gaucho's hands, le jazz manouche is left playfully unchained to the genre's European historical foundations, allowing the...

"Audium 9"

Audium-Theatre of Sound-Sculptured Space : 8:30 p.m. every Fri., Sat.

The Audium was started in 1965 by composer Stan Shaff and equipment designer Doug McEachern. Shows are Fridays and Saturdays, and you have to be there on time — they lock the door. The room fits 50 people or so. There are chairs arranged in a semicircle. There are something like 180... More >>

"1964"

Edinburgh Castle : 10:00 p.m. second Wed. of every month; 10:00 p.m. fourth Wed. of every month

This dance party gets the records spinning every second and fourth Wednesday of the month. While the red Christmas lights could come across as gauche, they prove to be casually intimate as you and other stylish fauxhemians are transported to 1964. That's right: The Shirelles, the Sapphires, the... More >>

Mouse on Mars

The Independent : 9:00 p.m. February 17

When a band reaches the impressive achievement of record No. 10, it's okay to wonder if monotony and apathy are perhaps playing key roles in keeping the act afloat. But on new album Parastrophics, German experimental electronic duo Mouse on Mars stomps all over that assumption. Jan St. Werner... More >>

Haight/ Fillmore Nightlife, Music

"Awash in Bodies"

Center for Sex & Culture : 7:00 p.m. every Mon., Fri. until January 27

What was your favorite part of The Little Mermaid? Was it when the enchantress cuts out the mermaid’s tongue in payment for her potion? Ah, Disney omitted that detail from Hans Christian Andersen’s original tale, along with her suicide. Artist and editor Jos Truitt also strayed from... More >>

"Peaches"

Skylark Bar : 10:00 p.m. every Thu.

Ever since she was a child, Bay Area DJ ThatGirl has been interested in street art and its connection to the hip-hop movement. However, it wasn't until she attended a rave in 1997 that she discovered her desire to channel this creativity into music, most notably turntablism. She soon purchased... More >>
