This is the official poster art:

And this is the official tagline:

It’s like we ate Pitchfork, stole your iPod and rode off with your track bike.

RSVP and invite your friends (and get half-price presale tickets).

They’re moving to Oakland, and bigger digs, which is nice for them (but sad for us here in the Mission).

Inside Scoop reports:

In sad news for lovers of the 24th Street sandwich shop — Pal’s is heading to the other side of the Bay. But, what’s San Francisco’s loss is Oakland’s gain.

According to [Pal #1 Jeff] Mason, he’s collaborating with Firebrand Artisan Breads ‘Matt Kreutz and Colleen Orlando on their forthcoming bakery/restaurant space at the Hive.

Pal’s is just one of several food/drink projects, including Firebrand, that are setting-up shop at the Uptown Oakland development. Others include Numi Tea, Calavera and Drake’s Brewery.

Mason has been buying bread from Firebrand for years and has a close working relationship with Kreutz and Orlando. When they approached him to see if he wanted to oversee the sandwich program at the new 5,000-square-foot bakery, Mason said yes.

In addition to full creative control over the sandwich menu, Mason’s getting something else — a full kitchen. For someone who has worked his sandwich magic in tiny makeshift kitchens, this is huge.

Read on for lots more info.

And for goodness’ sake, enjoy yourself some Pal’s while you still can.

On Friday night it’s the official 4th anniversary party for American Tripps, the club night that originally imported this style of party from Germany. The musical entertainment at this particular party comes courtesy of Beauregard Testarossa and is something called “true-school” hip hop. RSVP and invite your friends!

And then on Monday, the SF Berlin-Style Ping Pong League kicks off its fall season, at a secret location in the Mission. Sign up!

I for one am most likely doomed for taking this photo.  Save yourself while you can!

RSVP and invite your friends!
