Pics please. Also, could this be the title of that album we already have the cover art for?

Missed Connection: Yellow Dress, Black-Frame Glasses, Blue Stockings at the Yacht Club

Just got the sweetest email from Aaron Mayfield Sunshine (pictured):

So I need help, the kind only a neighborhood specific blog can provide. I went to a party at the Yacht Club last night and I met this girl who hit on me and Andrew and she was weirdddd, but she was also cute and funny and just the sort of thing I like, but here’s the rub; I asked for her number and she was weird about it, and I know nothing about her beyond that she was wearing a yellow dress and black frame glasses and blue stockings. I was drunk (so was she), and we danced (h8 dancing, very bad at it) and I kissed her, and she was flattered (I think) but not ready for it. There was definitely vibe though and I would like to see her again, in a setting that is neither loud nor covered in an alcoholic mist.

Dear girl, Aaron may be a bad dancer, but he’s a sweet kid, an absolutely inspired musician, a fashion fucking genius, and an all around enlightened soul. Get in touch.

Send tips to missionmissionmission (at) gmail (dot) com and they will be forwarded to appropriate parties.

Tuesday, early evening. “No way,” guy at the bar said, “She’s way too cute — she’s a cop.”

She came and went two or three times.

Slept With a Homeless Guy

The latest issue of Xploited Zine is online, and its theme is homelessness. The following is an excerpt from The One Time I Slept With a Homeless Guy by Virgie Tovar:

We met on Craigslist. At some point his homelessness started to fade against the background of our shared deviancy. He called me from the payphone at the Castro Safeway a few times. He sounded cute. We made a date and I made a couple of feeble attempts to back out. Yes, ok, because he was homeless, not because I worry about lunatics from Craigslist coming to my house and raping me or making me eat my own viscera in a sandwich or something. To be honest, my reticence stemmed from one thing, and one thing alone. I have this thing with dirty nails. They really freak me out, and I was worried that he would have dirty nails and then want to dig them into my back as he was going to town on my tits and mumbling “mommy”. I threw caution to the wind, gave him my address, and he showed up at my doorstep.

Read the rest for the gory details of their tryst.

The issue also features a story by Mission Mission’s Tomi Clark.

Toshio Hirano at the Rite Spot

Just got an email from Toshio Hirano:

Hello Everyone

I have a set at Rite Spot Cafe on April 28th Sat. 9:00 to 11:00.

Hope see there

Toshio Hirano

The Rite Spot website confirms that he meant “March 28th Sat.,” and hence is playing tonight. Show is free.

DJ Fort Nightly at the Attic

Any reason to go to the Attic is a good reason. Elton from World Famous in San Francisco offers one up:

One of my favorite DJ’s, if not my favorite DJ is spinning what may be his final show tonight at the Attic. Larry has been spinning every other Saturday at the Attic from 6 to 9 for some time now. We hope to have him soon at Club Club You’re Dead but until then come out to the Attic for some great tunes (C-86, Garage, obscure 60’s and local music). Also say goodbye to Jefferson Greene who is working his final shift as bartender.

DJ Fort Nightly is on from 6-9pm. Link.

(I had to look up C-86 too.)

Hit and Run at 20th and Florida

eddo_likes_you is on the scene:

HOLY SHIT. 20th & Florida, light blue Mercedes just HIT A PERSON and SPED OFF. [Link]

Everyone is outside, ppl are looking out windows, helping. Atlas Cafe folks are out on scene. Someone caught the license plate #. [Link]

Update: Okay, not a person, thankfully, hopefully, maybe:

Ok, heard misinformation. Crazy driver hit several parked cars, I think no ppl tho? No one was hurt? Several ppl got license plate #. [Link]

Here’s hoping this misinformation doesn’t get out and wrongly rile people up — on Critical Mass night.

Dynamo Donuts More Than Just A Counter

Got an intriguing IM from reader mcas just now:

Update:..they are intending to add bike parking in the garden, as well”

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."
