BISS 10.06.16 :: FLEET WEEK / ERIC KRASNO SHOWS, ALBUM RELEASE & BISS INTERVIEW / JOSHUA TREE MUSIC FEST / MOONALICE / ROOSEVELT COLLIER / BM DECOMPRESSION / ROCKTOBER IS HERE!!

Happy Rocktober BISS List followers!  I know... it's been said before but have you looked at the music & events calendar lately? Check the fully detailed BISS List Google Calendar to see all the latest SF bay area shows we think you should take a moment to consider...  
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=hckhd8c90tv4fivsmb3eph9j64%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles

Just when I thought that I was home long enough to get back into the swing of The BISS in The Bay, I am headed out again. These are my last trip(s) of the "summer". I swear! Next week, I am off to my brother's wedding in Michigan. Congrats Jon & Rachel!! Then back here to Placerville, CA the next week (10/20 - 10/23) for one of my favorite (semi-)local (semi-small) festivals ,Hangtown Music Festival (www.hangtownfestival.com)!  While I am away, I am sure that Arya or Casey will be in touch if I am not!  Then again, just in case, I am gonna give you MY personal "Best of The BISS" picks for the next week as of today...  

Speaking of Arya and upcoming awesome shows in the bay, have you seen the latest BISS List interview by staff writer Arya Jha with Bay Area (and everywhere else) favorite, Eric Krasno in support of his new album, BLOOD FROM A STONE,  and his visit to the Bay Area this week? Check out the interview and share it for a CHANCE to **WIN TICKETS** to Eric Krasno with Jazz Mafia at Brick and Mortar this Friday, 10/7! http://livebisslist.blogspot.com/p/bisslist-interview-with-eric-krasno-by.html

While I spent my day and night, yesterday, catching up on the latest BISS worthy events to share with you, I would have also been happy to spend my time at Boom Boom Room with Will Bernard's Frisco Funk (**WIN: Congrats to Chris C!**). Thankfully, I can still catch Will Bernard on Friday with Roosevelt Collier at Boom Boom... I would have also been happy to spend last night at The Cow Palace for the U2 -Benefit for UCSF Benioff Children's Hospitals in Oakland and San Francisco but that was a little steep for my charitable means...

All of you San Francisco residents, have you noticed the planes buzzing the city this week? That's cause it's FLEET WEEK here in SF, 10.3 - 10.10 at Marina Green . For more info on show times for Fleet Week SF check: Fleetweeksf.org!

Just to prove that "ROCKTOBER" is indeed in full swing, Thursday hits us with more than we can ever hope to see in one night. However, I remind you of the first rule of BISS List that says "There is no such thing as FOMO" (Fear Of Missing Out). Missing out can't exist when no matter where you are, you are exactly where you are supposed to be... There are plenty of suggested shows on BISS for this Thursday, 10/6 but if I did have a magic carpet, I would call on the second rule of BISS that says three songs is a set and then I would hit MOONALICE at Terrapin to celebrate the release of their new album, High 5. You still have a chance to **WIN TICKETS** for this one if you share the event info on Facebook or Twitter or wherever else you like! Then emailbiss@bisslist.com to enter! Remember, you always get a free piece of art at every Moonalice show. This show's poster is designed by artist, Chris Shaw. Next, I would fly by Drive-By Truckers with Lydia Loveless at The Fillmore  (**WIN: Congrats to Jon S. and Rachel Y.) and then Roosevelt Collier's JIMI MEETS FUNK at Boom Boom Room  (**WIN: TICKETS**). And maybe in between I would swing by Great American Music Hall for HUSHconcerts presents: MarchFourth Marching Band + The Jazz Mafia.

In the North bay, aside from MOONALICE at Terrapin Crossroads, you can also support multiple good causes and one of my personal favorite artists (& good friend) DJ Logic at Sweetwater Music Hall (late set starts @ 10:30) benefitting Heroesrock.org, Doitforthelove.org, & Summersearch.org... hmmm... plus one for a ride to Marin?!!

Thursday, 10/6, if you are in East Bay, stop by one of my new favorite venues, Ivy Room for a  whole collection of favorites with SONGS ABOUT SOMETHING: OLD, NEW, BORROWED AND BLUE TUNES IN THE ROUND HOST PAIGE CLEM WITH ESSENCE, KATE GAFFNEY, PAMELA PARKER AND GUEST JORDAN FEINSTEIN  (**WIN TICKETS**).  BE sure to say Happy Birthday to Paige!!!

Oh wait... Huh... what do you know? Festival season is not over yet people! Joshua Tree Music Festival is taking place this weekend (10/6-10/9) with tons of great artists including some of my personal faves like Mark Farina, Jelly Bread, Katdelic, Gene Evaro Jr. & Smoked Out Soul. (http://www.joshuatreemusicfestival.com/oct_fest.html)

Friday night is kinda ridic when it comes to more proof that ROCKTOBER exists... Just in the city, we have a crew (including myself) hitting up ERIC KRASNO plus Adam Theis & Jazz Mafia at Brick & Mortar Music Hall (**WIN TICKETS**). Then there's a 2nd night of Drive-By Truckers with Lydia Loveless at The Fillmore; ROOSEVELT COLLIER'S CALIFORNIA GET DOWN w /Wil Bernard, Reed Mathis, Dave Shul, Max Cowan, & Joe Bagale (**WIN TICKETS**) at Boom Boom Room; Planet Booty & Diego's Umbrella are at The Independent;  Alice in Chain is at The Masonic and Dub Club SF #1 featuring Saule, Dj Sep, Luv Fyah, Joshua Hales, & cyclopian  is at F8 (**WIN TICKETS**).

In the East Bay on Friday, AFROFUNK EXPERIENCE & Anita Lofton Project are at Ivy Room  (**WIN TICKETS**); Ani DiFranco is at The UC Theatre Taube Family Music Hall , and THE PHARCYDE is at Yoshi's with an open dance floor.

Going down into to the South Bay and beyond on Friday, GUITAR LEGEND: DICK DALE is at The Ritz in San Jose; Katdelic is hosting a Dance Party at Moe's Alley in Santa Cruz; and Joshua Tree Music Festival continues with Mokoomba, Dynohunter, Regal Pooch , Gene Evaro Jr., Las Cafeteras, Smoked Out Soul , Shea Freedom, Cameron Calloway,  Suitcase Junket , Cardinal Moon, and Annachristie & the Sapphires.

On Saturday, Eric Krasno Band is with Phil Lesh at Terrapin Crossroads. Did I mention theamazing interview that Kras did this past week with BISS Staff writer Arya Jah? If not, check it out & share to win tickets to the Krasno & Jazz Mafia Friday night show at Brick & Mortar...http://livebisslist.blogspot.com/p/bisslist-interview-with-eric-krasno-by.html

In the city, on Saturday, Ani DiFranco is at The Fillmore and right across the street, The Humidors + Fall Tour + DJ Kevvy Kev are at Boom Boom Room  (**WIN TICKETS**).

In the East Bay, enjoy an evening with BOB WEIR featuring Aaron Dessner, Bryan Devendorf, Scott Devendorf, & Josh Kaufman for the Campfire Tour at The Fox.

And again, down in Joshua Tree, the weekend continues with Katdelic, Tyler Bryant & the Shakedown , Mark Farina, House of Hamsa, Jagwa Music, Tribecastan, Femina, Myshkin, Redwoods Revue, Intuit, and Papa Bear & Easy Love...

Sunday, one of my favorite events comes to SF. I was going to Burning Man Decompression here in SF for years before I ever went to The Burn. Though with my upcoming travel next week and my shift at Dailey Method Mission Castro that day, that might be a tough one this this time. In the city on Sunday night, Wil Blades is hosting his weekly SUNDAY SESSIONS with straight JAZZ, NO CHASER at Madrone Art Bar .

In Marin, you have one last chance to catch Kras in the bay and it's again with Phil at Terrapin on Sunday.

In the East, Machine Gun Kelly is at The UC Theatre Taube Family Music Hall  and you can **WIN TICKETS**! Get those entries in today! The weekend's chances to win ends at 11am on Friday!!

And don't forget that Joshua Tree Music Festival goes thru Sunday with Liberation Movement, Adam Freeland, Palenke Soultribe,  Zazi , Tim Easton, Desert Rhythm Project, Sirens of Soul , & Sequoia Smith...
