It's for real. Come dance your face off in the basement space of Li Po Cocktail Lounge in Chinatown!
**FREE before 10:30 - $5 AFTER**
DaveO and DJ Bunnystyle take hip-hop, b'more, party rap, fidget house, indie dance jams, booty bass and live drums and buy it, use it, break it, fix it, trash it, change it, snap and work it. Our host, the legendary performance artist and all-around amazing Krylon Superstar will be there to guide you to great heights.
Our guest this month is DJ Shedd! She's back in action after a hiatus from the turntables and ready to make you swoon!
Upstairs at LiPo you will find the bar - complete with cocktails, bar stools, comfy booths for group hang outs/make-outs, and some weird video games. Downstairs you will find leather couches, dark corners, lots of dancing, and lots of sweating. No joke.
TO GET THERE on Public Transport: From Powell St. Bart, take the Powell-Mason Cable Car to Washington & walk 3 minutes to 916 Grant st. Done.
OR if you're coming from the mission just take the 12 folsom and it lets you off a block away!
To BIKE THERE: If you're biking from the Mission or surrounding areas - you can take Mission to S. Van Ness, to Market. Turn left onto Grant and follow Grant all the way to Chinatown. There's a hill for a block from Bush to Pine that you might need to walk up, and a slight incline from Sacramento to Clay that you will barely notice. The rest is flat and a really easy ride!
If you are coming from any other place and need directions, lemme know.1.58970179683641823Pacific Time (US & Canada)Blood, Sweat & Queers2571064San Francisco0.0free{"Collab":"","Culture":"","Type":""}2010-03-17Smack Dab open mic hosted by Kirk Read and Larry-bob Roberts. 8pm, open mic signup starts at 7:30.

F ) and "Rat Girl Rhonda " featuring some of the " Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence "- I lived in Thailand over a year ( 1972 ) with wonderful Thai transvestites ( I wrote a musical about that ).Recenily I've done some shows for Cockette reunions and performed as the featured performer at The Eagle in " Herr- a Chick " and many other local clubs and theaters including The Marsh , The Hypnodrome , Cafe Flpre , The Castro St. Fair , The Metro , MOMA , Aunt Charlie's , Cafe du Nord ,for the Tingle Tangle ,and for The Center of Sex and Culture .I was featured performer for Cara Vida's Cabaret , and many other venues .
