Sfist interviews Yoni Wolf of Why?

SFist interviews Eric Allen, bass player for the Apples in Stereo

We're having one of those weeks where we're completely unsatisfied with every book we pick up, even those from authors we ordinarily like. The new Fay Weldon just made us glad that we're a) childless and b) not British, and the Jonathan Ames we just picked up from the SFPL is leaving us cold. He just seems so anxious about everything, and he always has an erection.

We're at SXSW, so this week's column is a day late and a dollar short.

Our concert picks for the week of 11/10-11/16.

Our concert picks for the week of 8/4 - 8/10.

Is your wallet looking slim this week? Fret not; there's plenty of free music to be had. Check out any of Amoeba's stellar in-store offerings, including Prefuse 73, Zion I, locals Six Organs of Admittance, and a rare acoustic performance by Trail of Dead. Local label Six Degrees Records presents Niyaz at Virgin Megastore on Saturday at 2pm. And SFist is giving away a free copy of Citizen Cope's CD The Clarence Greenwood Chronicles (enter to win here).

Our concert picks for the week of 5/12-5/18.

Our live music picks for the week of 3/3-3/9.

Okay, five words: "Princess Bride, The Play." Sure, that's only four words, but we think the fifth word, OMFG, is implied. (So, nine words total. Whatever.) At The Dark Room Theatre, Impossible Productions (the group that brought us stage versions of Reservoir Dogs, Dr. Strangelove, and Clue) seems to be attempting to live up to its name: you can't deny that you're curious about how they'll pull it off. The Fire Swamp...Andre The Giant...The Cliffs of Insanity...all that jousting - can they do that on stage? Without them, what are you left with? Well, a really awesome plot, actually, so whether or not they've got killer rodents, the idea's got a lot of potential. Will it work? There's only one way to find out: tickets are $12.50 online, or $15 at the door. Curtain goes up December 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18 and 19. For their next adaptation, we humbly request that Impossible Productions team up with The Odeon Muppetational and The Dead Hensons to recreate The Muppet Movie.
