Chillin'
9th Anniversary
60 fashion designers, 80 painters and photographers, 60 filmakers,
and 8 DJs converge at Mezzanine this Saturday for the Chillin'
9th Anniversary, and quite possibly to form the thickest
concentration of creativity, innovation, an dcutting-edge style
and expression the world has ever seen. Mindless drones,
beware. You may just disintegrate under the pressure of all the
imaginative minds at work in there. There will be something
of every style and flavor, discipline and deviation in the fashion
department from Ragmuffin Clothing, who will be flossing their
socially conscious urbanwear, to the limited edition jewelry
19 Moons fashions
from vintage and recycled components. The visual artists
and filmakers will dazzle your sense of sight and blow your minds
with the artistic mastery they exhibit in their works, so when
you start to feel that dazed from sensory overload, don't forget
to hitup the dancefloor. With a good dose of killer beats the
likes of favorite locals Dirtyhertz, Laron, and Mei-Lwun among
others, you'll come correct in no time. Date:
Saturday 6/2, Time: 8pm-2am, Place:
Mezzanine, 444 Jessie St, Cover: $6, More

SHOP
SF
Summer is here and we all want to look our best, but who wants
to deal with malls and their legions of clueless tourists and
snot-nosed teenagers? Why not make your way to a more sophisticated
and fun shopping experience being put on by Gen Art? Shop SF will
feature spa treatments, catwalk shows, an open bar to indulge
in, and myriad other treats to spoil yourself with. Over 40 of
the hottest designers will be there as the event builds on the
success of shows in New York and Chicago. DJs will provide the
soundtrack as you peruse the wares and find the threads that fit
your style in mens and womens wear and accessories. And once you've
gotten in the mood with so much beauty in the air, head over to
Fluid for the sultry afterparty hosted by Sebastien Entertainment
where Jeff Cavanaugh and Momentum will keep spirits high as you
cavort around in your new look. Date: Thurs 5/31,
Time: 6-10pm, Place: Galleria

Union
Street Festival
Summer's officially here and the weather's getting better (well,
mostly, it is San Francisco after all), so get your head in the
festival mindset and plan out your weekends with food and fun
in mind. The 31st Union Street festival is on tap this weekend,
combining art, food, wine, and more in one of SF's most fashionable
neighborhoods. Cow Hollow is one of the first neighborhoods to
develop its Victorians into boutiques, and helped the City develop
it's elevated (some might say arrogant) sense of itself. Stroll
down the historic street and check out the hundreds of exhibitors
and sample some of the wares in a genteel atmosphere. The festival
runs between Gough and Steiner, with stages at either end to provide
the musical accompaniment. Think of it as sort of an anti-How
Weird, but with better food and beer. Date: Sat-Sun
6/2-6/3, Time: 10am-6pm, Place:
Union Street b/t Gough and Steiner, Cover: no

The
South Bay scene is making some noise this week by welcoming a world-class
talent to the streets of San Jose. DJ
Sneak was a major player in the resurgence of Chicago house in
the early '90s with productions on Cajual and Relief Records. He's
heading west for a rare Bay Area appearence so I would seriously consider
a trip down South if seeing a legend in person appeals to you. (SG)

Baga
Bae is an African dance band led by charismatic Guinean singer-percussionist-dancer,
Amadou Camara. The Baga Bae live show is a tribal experience...and
as any audience member will tell you, any attempt to resist the
infectious rhythmic African-Love-Vibration emanating from Amadou,
the dancers and band is futile! Direct audience participation is
inevitable as the heavy dance beat merges everyone into one big
family, dancing and singing together – It’s like a
