Fight terror on 9/11!!! You can post awful memes about Trump or you can COME OVER TO HOTEL UTAH THURSDAY NIGHT and do something about him. INDIVISIBLE SF takes on fascism on multiple fronts -- you can hear great music and help fund this important resistance organization. (Or you can stare at your phone...)

Come on over!

Loretta Lynch are spectacular--three amazing women singing three-party harmony, with lyrics that snap and bite and grab on tight to the punk part of cow-punk. They've allowed two fine males into their band and we're all the better for it. Meanwhile, The Slow Reveal lost our second guitarist and have somehow come out ahead--tighter, more focused, and as Nigel Tufnel might add, "ready to ROCK YOU." (We'll also break your heart with some weepers...) Next Sunday afternoon at the only bar in town with a twenty-five-cent pinball machine. NOT A MONKEY HOUSE SHOW. (A Monkey-in-Chief show...)

TONIGHT, TONIGHT, TONIGHT!!!! I’ll be performing with my wonderful little band at my wonderful little Monkey House. We’re so eager to fill the room that we’ll be serving pink champagne and other assorted libations! (And yes, there will be ice for Eagles fans...)

As Money-in-Chief, I'm entitled to a little outside promo sometimes, right? :) Anybody who's been to the 100-year-old RITE SPOT knows what a treasure it is. Brian Whitten is the keyboard player in my band: not only as crack musician but a wonderful harmony singer (and delightful human.) If you get a chance to come over I hope you will. I have a feeling we will be on FIRE. Great drinks and no cover!
