Saturday - Sunday: What I Saw In SF

by Kathryn Vercillo

Well, my travel plans changed and I ended up having to stay in Los Angeles for another week. Truth be told I had fun there despite how much I talked last week about the differences from San Francisco that I don’t like so much. But there were definitely still things in San Francisco that I missed seeing.

Here are some of the things that I could have seen last week in San Francisco that I missed out on:

- 2 Great Live Music Shows - A CD release party for bilingual singer-songwriter Tiffany Joy happened at The Purple Onion in North Beach and a general live music concert by local performer Kate Isenberg was the same night over in The Mission. I missed them both because I was in Los Angeles.

- The Mission Indie Mart. I just found out about this monthly event which happens in The Mission. It’s a clothing designer event in which inie designers and other artists come together to share their stuff. There’s also some organic food and lemonade - a down-to-earth DIY affair. I’ll let you know more about it when the next one takes place.

- Sunshine, supposedly. I heard rumors that there were a bunch of sunny SF days while I was gone. Meanwhile, there were actually a couple of cloudy days where I was at. Go figure.

- The Haight. For some reason I’ve been craving a trip to The Haight. I think it’s because I haven’t been there in awhile, but I’m definitely due for a trek up there. I want to catch a flick at The Red Vic, get some mashed potatoes at Asqew and spend too much money on thrift store clothes.
