It's Thursday, which is more or less Friday, so you might as well go out tonight. And if you don't have plans, allow us to create an evening agenda for you.

First, I fell in love with La Nebbia, the newish wine bar and enoteca from the folks behind La Ciccia and the subject of this week's restaurant review. The menu at the 30th and Church restaurant focuses on prosciutto and thin-crust pizzas, with some other Italian specialties thrown in. Do order the burrata with pancetta and truffle sauce (dreamy), maybe a pizza or the porchetta with balsamic, endives, and blood orange, all washed down with a lovely glass of Italian wine.

Then! Walk a few blocks east to Rock Bar, the miner-themed watering hole across from the Front Porch that's celebrating its second anniversary tonight. There will be real donkeys there to give donkey rides, which sounds like a euphemism for something but actually is probably a pretty sweet opportunity to Instagram. Also, there will be drink specials (punch!), a DJ, and Front Porch fried chicken at midnight for those still standing.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
