Let's go drink PBR buy some clothes from Urban Outfitters and figure out how to make hip 'Banh Mi' sandwiches!

THIS WEEKEND: PBR Pinball Tourney & Rock Make Street Fest.

#TEAM_UppyAlmy has been invited to participate in this invitation pinball tournament (FUNDING THE KEEP-A-BREAST FOUNDATION PEOPLE!), so naturally it is my privilege to invite you to come watch us suck at pinball.  PBR and REBEL8 are going to provide ping pong, pinball machines and some tacos for non-competitors, so it ought to be a good time. 

The event is open to the public, so I highly encourage inviting as many friends as possible, particularly for the purpose of cheerleading. We will also have 200 limited edition tees and posters by Mike Giant (who will also be doing a live piece), all for the ridiculously low price of $20, as well as the El Tonayense Taco Truck (I will provide some freebie tacos) and “refreshments”, so bring cash! I am not charging for the tournament, but would love if everybody  made a small donation to Keep A Breast.

TEAMS CONFIRMED: HUF, Benny Gold, FTC, Medicine Agency, Workshop, Bender’s, Fecal Face, Rebel8, 330 Ritch, Evergold/SFAQ, Self Edge, Bro Palace, 111 Minna, Indie Mart, #TEAM_UppyAlmy

As I mentioned, we’ll have the Taco Truck there, as well as ping pong and other games for the general public. Machines will also be open to public for free play after the tournament has wrapped up, so please encourage all your friends to come out.

I went to Rock Make last year and it was a pretty quality time (and free).  I was able to purchase a tshirt with a pigeon screen-printed on it, so that is a huge one up.

As you probably know The Bay Bridged is hosting our 3rd Annual Rock Make Street Festival THIS Sunday, August 22nd in the Mission District.  There will be 15 local and kids rock bands, 100 arts vendors, beer gardens, comedians, jumpy houses, animal demonstrations and more!

Food Network Launching Hipster "Cooking Channel," Missionites Panic

The New York Times is reporting that the Food Netowrk is creating a spinoff network JUST FOR HIPSTERS.  Look at that sandwich.  That ring of fire probably made it, like, 1000x better.

In another show, “Unique Eats,” taped earlier this month at Bark, a boutique hot-dog shop in Park Slope, Brooklyn, the cameras lavished attention on baked heirloom beans and franks topped with Columbia County sauerkraut.

Sounds super unique!  I’ve always wanted to know what would happen if Emeril would wear a tucker hat.  Anyways, some old hippies back where I grew up used to say this all the time, “The hippie movement never died, all that happened is the trend-followers left.”  What do we think?  Is this the beginning of the end?  Will the cool kids of Valencia - Potrero Ave. make a mass exodus to the Sunset and start wearing board shorts?

Also, I think this goes without saying but, you know, for the fuck of it: will there be vegan options?
