It feels like truly local coverage -- and SFist means that as a compliment. Boulware included punk culture, the literary scene, talk about when the Mission and Potrero Hill were affordable, the sex industry, the dot-com boom and unfortunate celebrity fixations galore -- the only thing it's missing is foodie chat. Among the landmarks, people and things name-checked in the piece: the Dead Kennedys, Flipper, Frightwig, Tragic Mulatto, Falstaff brewery, the Mabuhay Gardens, Pansy Division, The Nose, Future Sex, John Shirley, Lisa Palac, Hyde Street studios, Slim's, The Web, Carol Queen, Charles Nob Hill and Armistead Maupin. SFist is wondering if somewhere in the arts community, there's someone who's torqued that they're not mentioned.
