Don't let the long Memorial Day Weekend hangover get you down. It's only a few short days before more action returns this weekend, and you don't have to sit and wait idly. Hit the Theater District for the return of Blue Man Group and see what's new in the literary scene at Quiet Lightning: Neighborhood Heroes, v.3. Aussies Architecture in Helsinki are back in town, but not before Flogging Molly take over Amoeba for a free in-store performance. Take the party outside for Live 105's BFD, a Bay Area summer concert tradition featuring the Strokes and Snoop Dogg, or head to Cow Hollow for the Union Street Eco-Urban Festival. And don't stop to rest, put on your Sunday best for a Hotel Rooftop Day Party at a secret location.
