BISS 05.07.09 - Rock'N'Roll Sideshow TONIGHT! Papa Mali, The Dead, The Allman Brothers...

Whew! Tough re-entry! But no time for recovery. Gotta jump right back in! Though I must say that it was great to see so many of at Jazzfest this past week! I think I still have NOLA on the brain...

Tonight is the Rock'N'Roll Side Show (*WIN*) @ Cell Space featuring a band I caught multiple times at Jazzfest, Eric McFadden Trio with Vau De Vire Society. http://www.inticketing.com/events/35625
Also one of my faves at Jazzfest last week, Papa Mali, is at the Boom Boom Room tonight. (Happy Birthday Jen!) Did I see you at that Papa Mali show late night at Le Bon Temps?

Saturday night is more Jazzfest faves here in SF with Monophonics at the BBR and Susan Tedeschi & Los Lonely Boys @ Pier 30/32.

On Sunday, is a benefit show for a Non-Profit Scholarship Program for "At-Risk Youth" at the Boom Boom Room with Shakewell and the Broun Fellni's. Check it out!

One of my usual Jazzfest favorites, Warren Haynes, will be here all week long with The Dead @ Shoreline both Sunday and Thursday. Or you can see him with the Allman Brothers on Monday and Tuesday @ The Fox in Oakland. (Happy Birthday Dave & Dina & Dad!)

However, if you are a Soul Live fan (sorry to have missed them this year at Jazzfest), be sure to catch them on Thursday this week so that you can make it Zigaboo's CD Release Party for his new release, Funk Me Hard, (which looks great on the tank top that I got at his show at Jazzfest) @ Pier 23 on Friday, May 15th. (**WIN** multiple pairs)

So as you see, if you didn't make it down for the party, we brought the party here!

We are looking for testimonials from YOU. So we are going to do the ticket contests a little differently. If you are a fan, tell us why you subscribe to BISS List.
