Happy Fourth of July!! Many of you are off today or tomorrow for Rothbury or High Sierra for the weekend. Have a blast on my behalf! But for those of you staying in town with me this weekend, let's party!!
Tonight, Thursday, is gonna start out my Fillmore based weekend. Jaguar Wright (*WIN) is at Yoshis featuring Bayonics & Brooklyn Red. Then we just walk a block up the street to Boom Boom Room for the LIVE VIDEO shoot of RonKat (*WIN) Spearman's Katdelic!! Always a great time!
You have the largest FREE Jazz Festival on the West Coast right in the middle of town on Fillmore between Jackson & Eddy. Check out the line up @: http://www.fillmorejazzfestival.com/?op=entertainment
Friday night we are going out early (6:30) to catch Glenn Hartman & his freaky accordion @ the Mojo Bicycle club on Divis (across from the Indie). What a great way to start off the weekend with wine, cheese, & good FREE live music. We had a great time last time & plan to do it again. Then maybe over to the east bay to Starry Plough to check out Mushroom & These United States. Probably going to end the evening at the Boom Boom Room with Maybelle.
Saturday, its either off to Tiburon for a BBQ at our friends house or Fillmore Jazz Festival. We will definitely be at Monophonics @ Boom Boom Room that night.
Sunday is a full day at theFillmore Jazz Festival with Spaceheater & Joe Begale & Vinyl & Sila and all of you who said you would meet me there!
And don't miss Rev Horton Heat on Monday & Tuesday @ GAMH. Unless of course you are at Duran Duran @ The Fillmore!!
