I just feel like the world needs to know.

THERE WILL BE DANCING IN THE AISLES.

I saw this thing at the Embarcadero screening in July, but it was a 7pm show on a weekday so everybody was kind of sedate. These are 11pm shows on a Friday and Saturday night in the Mission, so THERE WILL BE DANCING IN THE AISLES (even if it’s just me). Mike from the Roxie is onboard I think. Says he, “We’re going to play it SO LOUD!”

Furthermore, you can win a PARTY PACK OF FOUR so you can three pals can DANCE IN THE AISLES TOGETHER. All’s you have to do is tell us about your happiest LCD Soundsystem-related memory in the comments section below. Contest ends at noon on Thursday. Winner will be picked based on merit.

Seriously, if you loved LCD Soundsystem you will love this movie. And if you’ve never heard LCD Soundsystem, you will love them after watching this movie. (Seriously, this happened with a friend of mine last month.) I’m really excited about this, so I’m probably gonna post about it every day this week, so be prepared. Buy tickets and/or read all about the movie here.

And for goodness’ sake, RSVP and invite your friends!

Now let’s rock out:

THERE WILL BE DANCING IN THE AISLES.

Also, where shall we pre-game? Any bars on that block definitely have some LCD on the juke?

A young man (who wishes to remain anonymous for now) wrote in with a romantic conundrum. He encountered a very special babe a couple weeks back and failed to make a move. Rather than go to usual Missed Connections route, he drew us this haunting portrait and asked that we publish it with the following message:

Who goes to the movies alone on a Tuesday afternoon? Especially, to the Opera Plaza, exclusive destination of retirees. Apparently though, this knockout goes too, and pays in exact change. If you’re out there, I really wish I’d had the guts to introduce myself. This drawing bears almost no resemblance, but the red cardigan is accurate.

Best of luck, lovebirds! (Feel free to contact us if you’re the babe.)

It’s called the Peacemaker and it’s just as nuts as it looks — and you can get it with a side of gravy-smothered fries. Full menu here (though it erroneously states that they serve breakfast and brunch, which apparently they no longer do).

Even one of the neighborhood’s premiere sandwich experts was impressed:

And it all goes down this Sunday. Here’s the deal:

We’re FINALLY back after a long winter break for a full Indie Mart Street Fair complete with 110 vendors, all day music festival (did we mention Ty Segall jamming with the SF Rock Project kids!), DIY galore, food, drink, cheap beers, foxy eye candy, a dance party afterwards & more! We’re so proud to be turning 5 this year- still repping truly local, up & coming rad vendors & makers and showcasing the best in DIY culture from every aspect (makers, music, food & more). No big venues with sponsored lounges, no vendors from outside of CA, no attitude and just a bunch of fun, wether you want to shop, drink, eat, party, people watch or all of the above. We cant believe its already 5 years…all from lil beginnings in my teeny mission yard♥

Read on for full details (including bands’ set times). RSVP and invite your friends!

Haven’t you always wanted to know what it’s like to work at a rail yard, hopping on trains, hopping off trains, starting trains up, etc.? Here’s an opportunity to go behind the scenes.

Wild that a bunch of local rail yard workers use Mission Workshop backpacks in their daily routines, right?

More info.

Gets the job done; is way easier to put on. And looks cool.
