Stop Demanded

A Web site devoted to complaining about Muni — okay, we get it. (Actually, we love it.) But a night of storytelling dedicated to our maligned transportation service? It’s enough to cause two people to fight, another to vomit, another to tag the inside of the whole vehicle, another to throw trash on the floor, another to give his backpack its own seat, another to lift a cheek and fart, another to drive the bus right past you at the stop, another to die (Oct. 19, 5-Fulton), and another to scream “Step down” with the vehemence of a drill sergeant.

Actually, these people don’t need any prompting, because they do this on Muni day in and out, making many run to www.munidiaries.com to vent — and, on occasion, praise. Tonight, many of them will be getting up to share their experiences, using puppets if the situation calls for it, at the second go-round of Muni Diaries Live! Under the Influence, emboldened by the transit cheers of the Cock T's — organizers are also inviting the audience onstage, so bring your best tale of woe. Please, take Muni: You might witness bus sex, when two or more vehicles press against one another and bump slowly down the line in flagrante delicto — everybody likes hearing about that.

  • 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.'"
