BISS 09.29.10 - Hardly Strictly Bluegrass / Logic, Popper, Wasserman, & Jazz Mafia / EMT & Vau De Vire / Railroad Earth

October is turning out to be our favorite month in the SF Bay Area!! For starters, it's when summer really gets going around here! Combine that with Hardly Strictly Bluegrass at the beginning of the month every year and it's off to a great start. I am sure many of you were part of the 800,000 who were in attendance last year. But just in case you don't know, it's 6 stages of music for FREE in Golden Gate Park and the line-ups are always amazing!! http://www.strictlybluegrass.com/ Then we get a nice Widespread run in the middle of the month. Then we end the month with Halloween in Yosemite for Las Tortugas - Dance of the Dead V http://lastortugasmusic.com/. If you stay in the city, of course, you have Gov't Mule. We love it here, don't we?

Thursday night we have quite a large crew making plans for an evening at Yoshi's. We are really excited to see this group of artists playing together in SF again!! Logic Project: Popper & Wasserman feat. John Popper (Blues Traveler,) Rob Wasserman (Ratdog,) DJ Logic and the Jazz Mafia All Stars. (Congrats to Wendy H.& Jamie L. *WIN TICKETS!!) $10 from each ticket sold online with promo code BLUEBEAR will be donated to Blue Bear by Yoshi's.

Friday, we plan to make it to the Arrow Stage in GG park by 2p for The Waybacks with Sarah Dugas, followed by one of our new favorite bands, 7 Walkers feat Bill Kreutzman, George Porter Jr. Papa Mali, & Matt Hubbard. We will probably end the day with The Dukes of September feat Donald Fagen, Michael McDonald & Boz Scaggs...

Friday night, the BISS After-HSBG plan is DNA for the Rock N Roll Sideshow with ERIC MCFADDEN & VAU DE VIRE SOCIETY! Plus special guests including Jane Wiedlin (go go's), Paulo Baldi (cake), Gabby La La (les claypool), Sam Bass & Robin Coomer (loop!station), Paula O'Rourke (animals), Rob Reich (gaucho), with Cowboy Girl, Shovelman, James Whiton, and DJ Swalloykey as well as surprise guest artists from HSBG!! Show 9pm tickets avail at: www.dnalounge.com (Congrats to Anthony A, Jen S. Chris D.**WIN TICKETS!!**)

Also Friday night is Railroad Earth @ Fillmore (*Congrats to Jimi S!) and JUNO WHAT?! & PINOT @ BBR (*WIN), and also Aram Danesh & The Superhuman Crew @ Coda (*WIN)

But don't stay out too late Friday night cause you gotta get down to gg park early if you want to get a spot with your blanket. TIP: Hot Tea with Bailey's is excellent at 7am. while holding down the blanket and waiting for everyone else to bring the bloody marys, champs, and the rest of the food & alcohol for the day! So much to try to get to but at first glance here's our Saturday thoughts... Trombone Shorty, Hot Tuna, Jerry Jeff Walker, Richard Thompson, Jackie Greene, Holly Golightly, Joan Baez, David Grisman, Gilllian Welch & Kinky Friedman...

Saturday night, Railroad Earth @ The Fillmore again (*Congrats to Ian S!) , Brian Pardo @ Coda Jazz and Supper Club (*WIN) and PETER WOLF Rock vocalist from J. Geils Band! @ Yoshi's SF (*WIN).

Be sure to save your energy to be up again early to get to the park for one more full day of music! We will try to at least see....March Fourth Marching Band, Martin Sexton, Elvis Costello, Sharon Jones, Pattie Smith (DO NOT MISS HER!!), Moonalice, Raliroad Earth, Keller & The Keels, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Avett Brothers, Nick Lowe, Mondo Cane.



Have you been out for a BISS Night yet? If you have, you know that the bands are always top notch. Might be a new one to discover or an old favorite! This month, we are doing a BISS SUNDAY @ Pier 23 on October 24th @ 4pm with On The Spot Trio and The Pulsators!
