BISS 05.31.12 - Mama's Cookin' / BILLY MARTIN & WIL BLADES / Ernest Ranglin & VINYL / VAN HALEN / FREERADICALS PROJEKT


As the fireworks subside and the Carnaval feathers fly away, the BISS crew kisses May good-bye and jumps into the arms of June, ready for smokin' hot music that will make you feel anew.

Tonight, Thursday we pay our respects to a great man, Bill Bradt who was the co-founder of Powerhouse Brewing. ZIGABOO MODELISTE & The New Aahkesstra will be playing in his honor at Aubergine in Sebastopol for only $10 (*Congrats Sean!).

Also tonight, BISS favorite Mama's Cookin' comes  to the bay area. They are playing at Vitus in Oakland and we still have a pair of tickets to giveaway. Spread the word and email us to win!!

On Friday, the GAMH smokes it up with The BILLY MARTIN & WIL BLADES DUO plus THE ON THE SPOT TRIO (*Congrats Amy C!). In the East Bay, The Greek in Berkeley takes you back with THE BEACH BOYS 50TH ANNIVERSARY. In the North Bay, The Sweetwater Music Hall has our new friends, FREERADICALS PROJEKT!! (*WIN)

Start your Saturday night off right with a drive in movie. THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER is playing at the mobile drive in at the Old Hamilton Theater Building. Then head back to the city to celebrate Ernest Ranglin's 80th birthday with VINYL at The Great American Music Hall (*Congrats Peter!). Afterwards, head to The Boom Boom Room to see Brian Jordan going late night (*WIN).  If you get there early, you can catch our new friends FREERADICALS PROJEKT. If you haven't seen them by the end of the weekend, you can still see them on Sunday at Rockit Room (*WIN).

Feel like rocking it out hard this weekend? Shoreline is the place to be then. LIVE 105 presents bands such as JANE'S ADDICTION, SILVERSUN PICKUPS, GARBAGE, THE NAKED AND FAMOUS, FUN., GROUPLOVE, OF MONSTERS AND MEN, WALK THE MOON, and be sure to make it to the local stage to see BISS Intern favorite A B & THE SEA.

Sunday is your first chance to catch VAN HALEN who are playing at the Oracle Arena. If you miss them you can also see them on Tuesday at the HP Pavilion.

Monday the GAMH will be hosting Project Avery's "Celebrating Crowning Achievements." Project Avery is a program designed to help improve the lives of at-risk children who have a parent in prison. Performing at this event will be MOONALICE featuring PETER ROWAN. There will be a silent auction, along with dinner and wine.

We also have some residencies on the BISS calendar this month. NICKI BLUHM AND THE GRAMBLERS are claiming Tuesdays at The Rickshaw Stop and MARK KARAN commands Wednesdays at Sweetwater Music Hall.

With the MONOPHONICS record release party coming in two weeks and all the festivals like FAR WEST FEST & GUITARFISH on the horizon, make sure you all are looking fly. Maybe contact Miss Biss to get some of the new stock of ROCK N' THE TREND jewelry we have at HQ. Better yet, "LIKE" Rock N' The Trend on facebook and share their page. Just by doing that you'll be entered into our contest to win a pair of gorgeous jewelry! (Email biss@bisslist.com to be sure we know you did it)

Of course, if you are on The BISS List, you are always looking fly... and sparkly too.

BISS 05.24.12 - Big Sam's Funky Nation / Tab Benoit / Katdelic / Nibblers / Carnaval SF Post Party!


Summertime and the living is easy, especially when you are on the BISS list 'cause BISS Listers know where to find the best live music and how to win free tickets! What could be easier than that?!

Thursday starts the weekend off with a jam-packed punch. No matter what kind of music you want to see, Thursday has it all. You can start by dropping the lyrics at TENACIOUS D at The Fox or rock it out with the up and coming band CON BRIO at The Great American Music Hall  Who doesn't love a bad-ass chick that shreds the guitar? (*Congrats to Heather S!). In the East Bay tonight? That's easy! Check out MARCO BENEVENTO at Yoshi's, sure to tear up that piano till there is nothing left. (*Congrats to Suzan A!)

Still having withdrawal from NOLA Jazz Fest? Or maybe you didn't get to go this year?? No worries, NOLA comes to us this weekend!!! On Friday night, we have Big Sam's Funky Nation (*WIN). We are going to get there early so we can catch our friends, All Of A Sudden opening. Not to mention the fact that we don't want to miss Gumbo Dave's Chicken & Andouille Gumbo plus Jambalaya!! Then on Saturday night we get Tab Benoit at Slim's with BISS favorite Jimmy Leslie & The Flow opening up with his CD Release Party! (*WIN)

Late night on Friday?  It's the "good kind of dirty funk" with KATDELIC at The Boom Boom Room (*WIN), going late night and full "meowwwwwwww." Wear your cat ears if you got em!  Or get yourself a pair when you get there!

In the north bay on Friday check out HOT BUTTERED RUM at Hopmonk or B-SIDE PLAYERS & BAYONICS at the Mystic. As any good BISS Lister knows, good music is everywhere!!

Saturday, besides it being CARNAVAL, yes, we know you love this city, check out THE NIBBLERS at The Boom Boom Room (*WIN), another new BISS favorite! Or venture to the north bay for CAST OF CLOWNS at Sweetwater Music Hall or THE MOTHER HIPS at the Uptown Theater in Napa. Get those hips moving!!!

For those of you going to Carnaval on Saturday, make sure to be at 20th Street for NATIVE ELEMENTS at 3:15 and dance like no one is watching all the way through AFROLICIOUS' set. (same stage starting at 4:30)

Carnaval on Sunday is going to be hectic! The parade starts at 9:30am and is always awesome! We'll start off going to the 17th Street Stage at 1:40 to catch LAGOS ROOTS AFROBEAT and quickly run over to 20th Street to catch part of BANG DATA. We're going to have to think up a plan of attack for BAYONICS' set, MANICATO's set, and KATDELIC's set. They all go on at 3:05, at each stage, and we MUST see them all. Maybe we should wear roller-skates. In the end we'll end up on 22nd Street for Boca Do Rio at 4:30. **Let us know if you are going and want to join the BISS Street Team and help us flyer!!!

The party keeps going at Mighty with THE BRAZILIAN CARNAVAL POST PARTY!! It's 7 hours of pure Brazilian spice starting at 6pm! Live music includes BROTHERS CALATAYUD & LITTLE BRASIL (SAMBA PAGODE) with FOGO NA ROUPA, BOCA DO RIO, MONDO LOKO, with special guest ANTONIO GUEDES, and COELHO & RIDNELL. Special guest musicians including master percussionist JAMES HENRY, trumpet player WILL MAGID, izzy*wise, and much more. (*WIN WIN WIN)

It's a long holiday weekend so why not celebrate Memorial Day with more music. THE ROOTS is at the Regency and Mike Olmos is at The Union Room. Damn, this city is the place to be, especially when you are BISSfully on the BISS list.
