All eyes are on San Francisco this week as the 49ers celebrate their return to the NFL's elite and prepare for the NFC Championship game this Sunday at Candlestick. Punk icons Nofx will provide a high-energy soundtrack before the game with a couple of shows at The Fillmore and Steve Aoki is back with a massive party at the Civic Auditorium. Look for some interesting eye candy with the partiers kicking it old school at the 12th Annual Edwardian Ball and "fiery, furry burlesque acts" are taking over at Burnlesque: Animal Style. SF's public-transportation woes move from the street to the stage at Muni Diaries Live and Jimmy Kansau celebrates Latin jazz from yesteryear at the Rrazz Room.
