BISS LIST 06.06.18 : HAIGHT STREET FAIR / ERIC MCFADDEN / HEAVY PETS / HUSHFEST / CASH'D OUT / GREEN LEAF RUSTLERS / DIRTY DOZEN / PAPA MALI

Happy June BISS LIsters! June means street fairs and festivals a plenty all over SF and beyond! There's... Haight-Ashbury Street Fair (10th),DocFest (6th - 14th),   San Francisco Jazz Festival(6th - 17th),  Fairfax Festival (9th-10th), San Francisco Black Film Festival (15th-17th),  San Francisco Juneteenth (16th),  North Beach Festival (16th - 17th), Stern Grove Festival (17th - Aug 19th), San Francisco Pride Celebration &  Pride Parade (23rd-24th),  Fillmore Jazz Festival(30th - July 1st) & of course, who could forget... the Northern California Soy and Tofu Festival  (30th) and that's just naming a few here....
Personally, I am excited for the Haight-Ashbury Fair this weekend because it's the second year in a row my dear and long-time bestie, Sunny Powers and her store Love On Haight will be sponsoring the Masonic Street Stage. I will be spending most of my day there with all my faves starting at 11am with El Metate, Tracorum, & Katdelic. Then before the last set there will be a Love On Haight Fashion show. Then the Masonic stage will close out with Moonalice... At the same time, closing out the Stanyan Stage is Jackson Saints & Friends featuring longtime friend and fave BISS musician, Shaunna Hall with Pearl Harbour, Penelope Houston, Jimmy Crucifix, Cyril Jordan & Brad. Curated by Eddie Jennings. Paying homage to iconic 80s Haight Street nightclubs, Nightbreak and The I-Beam. We will also be celebrating Miss Sunny Powers Birthday that day along with Casey Sol, Gina Hall, & Rebecca Z! Happy Birthday to all you lovelies! Can't wait to celebrate with you!

OK... Now on with this week's....

6/6/2018-7/2/2018
Photography of Jessica Tanzer 
Black & White analog photos (1987-1995) At the height of the AIDS crisis in the early 1990s, San Francisco photographer Jessica Tanzer's work was directly political. While involved in ACT UP and Queer Nation, she created photographs that are both powerful and graceful to promote safe sex and respond to homophobia.  This is a "so long San Francisco" show before her rolls and rolls of negatives, papers and prints move to their new home.  Jessica Tanzer's archives will be permanently housed in Cornell University's Human Sexuality Collection.  #sfpride2018 #lesbianphotography #thecastro #lesbianphotographer #pride #sanfranciscoart #actup #queernation @divamagazine @bayareareporter @dogearedbookscastro
