BISS 3.29.12 - W-Beez / Galactic / Rebirth / Ghosts / Beats Antique / Weir-Hornsby

If you are like me a week ago, the FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) was just starting to set in for NOLA Jazz Fest 2012. It's only a month away and everyone is making plans...except me... Thankfully New Orleans loves SF as much as we love New Orleans so they are coming to us for the whole weekend!!

We get a double dose of NOLA funk at The Fillmore on Friday & Saturday night with GALACTIC featuring special guests Corey Henry and Corey Glover (aka Corey2) **Congrats to ADR & Phil R for Fri, and Britt F and Lisa C for Sat!


If we are going to claim that New Orleans is coming to SF, there would have to be more! And there is... We also have a double dose of Grammy award winner Rebirth Brass Band both Friday & Saturday night brought to you by Sunset Promotions. Friday night is SOLD OUT at the Indy! Congrats to Gary S!! No fear!! There are still a few tickets left for Saturday night at The Mezzanine so get them quickly!! (*WIN*)


But wait, did I say NOLA is in town? Then there better be some funky NOLA late night! Yep, Boom Boom Room has the after shows (both nights) with Frequinox West featuring STANTON MOORE, BOBBY MAC, WIL BLADES & WILL BERNARD going late night and sure to keep your butt shaking! (*WIN Fri & Congrats to Matt T for Saturday!)

Start your weekend tonight with some horn a plenty at The Boom Boom Room with W-BEEZ featuring Wil Blades, Will Bernard, Brandon Etzler plus Jazz Mafia horns! *WIN*

Not ready to think about New Orleans? No worries, this is the city by the bay and music is a plenty. BEATS ANTIQUE is playing Friday at The Fox Theater! *Congrats to Logan! Or get your double dose of GHOSTS OF ELECTRICITY at Hopmonk on Friday and Brick and Mortar on Saturday! *Congrats to Peter M!!


If you're in the North Bay, you know there is always something going on at The Sweetwater these days. This week is no exception!! Saturday night is Korty & Friends featuring Jonathan Korty, Danny Uzi, Inkx Herman, Michael Peloqion & Dan Duffin plus some very special guests!


Wind down the weekend with BOB WEIR & BRUCE HORNSBY at The Fox on Sunday.


And as the Horns march off in the distance we are left feeling BISSful.


PS - If you are like me this week, as of Tuesday in fact, then you ARE going to Jazz Fest and getting more and more excited!! Be on the lookout for the NOLA BISS coming out in the next couple weeks. Let us know your top 5 shows so we can include them. Hmmm maybe we should make that a contest....
