This video was shot at some festival in Canada a couple weeks back. You have to look and listen pretty closely to see and hear what’s different. New second drummer doesn’t seem to have any cymbals, but maybe that’s okay. Can’t wait to see this new lineup live when the band makes its return to the Bay Area later this month.

Tour dates here.

If you dare, attend 2 Men Will Move You tonight:

2 Men, one crazy party – every 2nd Saturday of the month at Amnesia, San Francisco.

Primo & Jordan play disco, boogie, house, new wave, italo, and other music for your dancing pleasure.

RSVP and invite your friends here.

Hmm. It has something to do with Burning Man, but we’ll forgive them that — so long as the flames are hott and the grilled cheese sandwiches are hottter.

More details here.

Jack’s bar has these adorable $5 mini-pitchers of Busch. It’s great. You can sip right from it, top off your friends’ cups when they are running low, and the easy-grip handle makes it easier to hang on to your drink. I’m pretty sure it’s going to be a thing. Get in on the ground floor, folks.

More mini-pitcher action after the jump…

Do you have the tightest skillz this side of Bernal Hill(z)? Well it’s your lucky day, because these $2000 rap contest flyers have been popping up everywhere lately. Just call or text 415 484 5368 for the details, we guess. I don’t know about you, but the Tartine Bakery does seem like good place to scout for the next Jay-Z:

Sucka MCs hear me and be all, “God-damn!” My style is tasty like this Croque-Madame

(Note: all comments must take the form of raps)

Anders’ Indiana hat is not quite as epic as Jen’s Cincinnasti hat, but it’s pretty good. Let’s hear it for the Midwest!

The previous edition of Smithsfits was disrupted by massive power outages (but they still had some fun). Here’s hoping this Saturday’s goes off without a hitch.

RSVP and invite your friends here.

Now THIS looks like a rad playground!

But seriously, these kids’ mom, Elizabeth, who sent in this great pic, wants to know when the renovation is gonna hurry up and start: “We are psyched for the improvements but need to play.” Last I heard, the project was “on target for an early 2011 completion.” By which, I think, they mean an early 2012 completion. Sound good?

SFist has the scoop:

Cocktail enthusiasts (or cock and tail enthusiasts, we suppose) who have been watching the space might remember Kink’s owner Peter Acworth has been looking to open an Armory-adjacent bar for some time now and let the Ace Café lease run out in order to take over the bar himself. No word yet from the folks at Kink about the intended decor or drink menu, but the steel bars and the stone walls on the ground floor would probably make for a nice dungeon-themed establishment, if that’s what you’re in to.
