MUSIC: A staple of hipster and queer culture in San Francisco, we prefer to think of her as the big-breasted gal who tied up her lying, hypocritical, sonofabitch boss in the guest bedroom with S&M gear. (You know who wields a garage door opener better than Dolly Parton? No one, that's who.) She sings over in Berkeley tonight.
8 p.m. // Greek Theatre (Piedmont & Hearst) // $39.50-$125
DANCE: Known for its "athleticism, passion, and intellectual depth," ODC/Dance presents a summer sampling tonight and tomorrow night of modern dance. Brenda Way and KT Nelson choreograph.
6 p.m. // ODC Dance Commons Studio B (351 Shotwell) // $20
CLUB: Frequented by one of SFist's favorite bloggers, the Knockout is always the best in which to receive a blackout the next morning. Tonight? DJ Paul Paul spins a "grab bag of far-out wax that'll have you seeing trails in your beer." We're so there.
10 p..m // The Knockout (3223 Mission) // free
