Sat Aug 18 Bootie SF
15-Year Anniversary
Bootie SF: 15-Year Anniversary! Mashups! Bootie hits a nightclub milestone -- 15 years of mashing it up in San Francisco! What began as a small monthly party for 100 people way back in 2003 is now a long-running San Francisco success story. Created by mashup lovers Adrian A and Mysterious D, Bootie SF became a genre-busting party like no other, winning numerous "Best Dance Party" awards, and becoming one of the driving forces of mashup culture, introducing club-goers to the clever sound of two or more songs fused together as one, long before anyone even knew what a "mashup" was.

Tue Sep 4 Killing Joke
Killing Joke! Rock, Industrial! Killing Joke are the most unique and subversive English band to have ever straddled post-punk, metal and industrial. Heavy and slow, Killing Joke have been labeled a quasi-metal band that dances to a tune of doom and gloom but they are so much more. They have eventually become less heavy and more arty (the latter seems almost impossible) -- more danceable, even -- blending urgent slabs of molten dynamite that ooze with the power of thick guitars, thudding drums, and over the top singing with effortless electronic and tribal dance rhythms.

Tue Sep 4 Psyclon Nine
Psyclon Nine! Gothic, Industrial! Summer of 2000 saw a match made in heaven when ex-roommates Marshall Carnage and Josef Heresy decided to form Psyclon Nine. The band started out as a guitar driven industrial band, heavily influenced by KMFDM and Ministry, but the members soon altered their style towards the more aggressive sounding industrial inspiration of bands like Wumpscut, Velvet Acid Christ, and Suicide Commando.
