Great Weather, Good Beer and Bonfires

There's no shortage of frothy beverages to accompany the fantastic spring weather in San Francisco as the International Beer Festival arrives this week. There are more opportunities to get outside with the How Weird Street Faire and the 8th Annual Fire Dance Expo, and the Night Light: Multimedia Garden Party showcases luminous art installations and performances to SOMArts. Anthony B brings reggae vibes to the Lodge at Regency Ballroom and local rock favorites Thee Oh Sees hit Brick and Mortar before heading out on a European tour. Vice hosts Bonfire Sessions with Two Gallants and a bonfire at Treasure Island and Turnt brings AraabMuzik to 1015 Folsom.

Just Announced: We're looking local bands to play at our local music showcase The Lineup, with a chance to perform at Oyster Festival, headlined this year by Devo. Details HERE.
