BISS 2.12.09 Eric McFadden / Cosmic Love Ball / Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk

Happy Valentine's Day BISS Lovers!! Another great weekend of music coming right up!! So many shows and so hard to be in more than one place at one time.

Friday night, I will be at Cafe Du Nord for Eric McFadden Trio, The New Up, & Garrin Benfield. I know many of you will be there too. If I didn't have plans to stay there for the entire night, I would be at Papa Mali at Mission Rock Cafe and then Orgone at the Boom Boom Room. Then again, there is also Bill Kreutzmann, Oteil Burbridge, & Scott Murawski at The Independent.

Saturday, we have even more choices! I am planning to hit Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk at the Independent and then the Cosmic Love Ball at Cell Space. If I can get over to North Beach somewhere in there, I will definitely stop by the Cigar Bar for Manicato and then by Mojito for The Park. Though my sentimental side says I should be at Great American Music Hall for Merl Saunders' 75th Birthday Bash.

Sunday, I am thinking about a musical Valentines Brunch at Farmer Browns with Supertaster. Though, I have been known to sleep in, in which case I will just hit dinner at 1300 Fillmore with Supertaster.
