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!

UPCOMING FEATURED SHOWS *Mark your calendar!!* 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 http://bit.ly/DogEaredBooks 6/9/2018 Cash'd Out at Brick & Mortar **WIN TICKETS** http://bit.ly/CashdOut060918 6/15/2018 Infected Mushroom (Live Band), Somatoast, DJ Icon, DJ Denise at The UC Theatre Taube Family Music Hall http://bit.ly/UCTheatre 7/6/2018 Stroll Down Penny Lane Tribute to Paul McCartney at The Bellevue Club (525 Bellevue Avenue) **WIN TICKETS** http://bit.ly/StrollDownPennyLane 6/16/2018 Niki J.
