Scenes from Primo’s art opening

One of many of works on display:

The artist arrives, fashionably late:

More art is hung:

Primo and Dennis Kernohan:

The show, titled Come to My DJ Night, is up at Four Barrel through June 26. Have a look!

Oh and there was a “We Are the World”-style group performance of “Get Lucky,” so no wonder:

DJ Purple is a genius.

For more photos, see the whole album on Facebook. For more Dance Karaoke, hit up Slate Bar on Thursday! And for more Berlin-style ping pong, join the SF Berlin-Style Ping Pong League!

What kind of wiper are you?

Thanks for the photography lesson, 16th and Mission Walgreens!

Anybody know what this Carnaval band was called?

They were mostly drummers, but there was other great instrumentation as well. They sounded sometimes like the Black Orpheus soundtrack and sometimes like Basement Jaxx. I tried looking them up, but the Carnaval website didn’t have a listing for the 19th and Harrison stage.

Also good was the the ad hoc tertiary percussion section energetically drumming along off to the side:

Drink of the Week: Bud & Clamato Picante Chelada (Nuevo!)

Nuevo from Budweiser: a slightly spicier variation on its popular line of collabs with Clamato! It’s great straight out of the can, or over ice in a mason jar! Tastes like Taco Bell hot sauce — in a good way!

And the main thing is, it goes REAL good with a veggie sandwich from Pal’s Take Away, and this is the last week you’ll be able to find both the Chelada and Pal’s inside Tony’s Market on 24th and Hampshire (because Pal’s is moving). Lunchtime!

Drink of the week is brought to you by Poachedjobs.com.

The former Nap’s 3 will reopen soon as Virgil’s Sea Room!

The above three images and the following text are pretty much all that exist on the Virgil’s Sea Room page right now, but I suppose it’s excitement enough for now:

We can’t wait to open these doors! Like our page to stay up to date on our (very soon to be opened) new neighborhood bar. — with Tom Temprano, Lila Lexington and Gillian Fitzgerald.

Can’t wait either!

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."
