That’s right, it’s confirmed: afterparty for the big Brian Jonestown Massacre/Primal Scream show will be at the House of Shields, Tuesday March 17th (St. Paddy’s Day no less)! We’re beyond excited.
After the show, come hang with the bands and enjoy DJ sets from Rick Maymi (BJM) and Darragh (Electric Stew). Starts around 11ish. No damn cover!
Oh I think we’re allowed a little nepotism here. This month’s shining stars are local dream-rockers VIR, featuring our very own sound guy and resident Kiwi, Sam Sloane. VIR specializes in all that is glacial, dark and sweet. Catch them on March 14 with Pfiffin and Mr Vague!
Photons are back this month! This superfun pop orchestra had their CD release at House Of Shields last fall, and are returning to our little bar on Friday Feb 6 with special guests, A B & The Sea. These two hot little SF bands have quickly gotten on our good side with their excellent songwriting. Don’t miss this show!
