BISS 08.19.15 HOUSEPITALITY / SOUL TRAIN REVIVAL / JORDAN & THE RITUAL / TEA LEAF GREEN / MONOPHONICS / HAPPY BIRTHDAYS ALL AROUND

Happy Birthday week BISS Listers! I barely have the time to celebrate this week with the burning man preparations underway. But I am confident, I will find a way to squeeze in some time for fun & celebrating between now and next Wednesday...

Tonight, we are starting early with Moon Alice at Union Square at 6pm. Everyone attending will receive a copy of a stunning illustration by Wendy Wright.https://www.facebook.com/events/589233547885658/

Then we are moving on with a Birthday dinner in the Haight then HOUSEPITALITY at F8  feat KEVIN YOST + JP SOUL + ANTHONY MANSFIELD! Free b4 10pm with RSVP - $10 after (( http://housepitalitysf.com/rsvp/ )). Then we'll end the nightat Boom Boom Room with *SOUL TRAIN REVIVAL* featuring: Ziek McCarter! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Ali B, Pamela P, Darren C, Adam L, Judy S, VinCi Vibe, Paul M, Adina N, Ivan N, John B, Isaac Izzy Weiser, Bob B, Molly C, Nate B, T-Minos Gordy, & Isaac P!

Thursday, after two days of hair, skin and nail treatments, I will definitely be up for a night out. Thanks Lexy, Lonni, & Jane!! We'll be starting in the Mission at Asiento then we'll just see where we end up. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Fred T, Matthew W, Colleen M, Jenny M, Caren E, Steve Filmzilla, Kenny S, Aaron K, Jamie G, Annie L, Diana P, Lisa O, & Tamar D!

Friday, we are still looking in to the set schedules to see how we can be at both Great American & The Chapel at one time for both openers as well as headliners. Maybe we start at Great American for HUMIDORS then over the The Chapel for EL MATATE, then back to Great American for JORDAN & THE RITUAL, then back to Chapel for TEA LEAF GREEN?? Sounds like a BISS kinda night to me!! Not to mention that "SWEAT" featuring DJs, Jeremy Black and J. Gibson, will be spinning sweet notes at Docs Lab in North Beach at the Birthday Booty Shake in honor of Miss Lisa O!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Jenny D, Jodie E, Stanley K, Reyna R, Anthony C, Stacy M, Darin L, & Cheryl B.

Saturday, during the day, we are going to take advantage of the gorgeous weather again so plans are in the works for a day at the beach or maybe a pool in Marin...

Saturday night, since we'll already be on the North side of the Golden Gate Bridge, it will make it easy to get to Sweetwater to see MONOPHONICS!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY to George B, Donna Jean Godchaux, Todd E, Reyna M, Sylvia W, Yvonne H, Yoav B, Theresa H, Carolyn K, & Kyna W.

Sunday, ah Sunday, the actual day... sleep late, brunch with friends, drinks with friends, dinner with friends and then Madrone for SUNDAY SESSIONS featuring WIL BLADES with weekly guests for some straight JAZZ, NO CHASER! Then we'll finish off the birthday week late Sunday night with ROTC Hip Hop at Boom Boom Room with Beatbox Night feat Ready Yo aka MC Radio Active, Infinite, Frisco. sYzYgY, Soulati, Eucalips plus DJ KEVVY KEV!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Brian D, Mike K, Sara A, Kara N, Nunzy, Ruby B and MEEEEEEEEEEE!
