The Gist - 1. Please buy tickets yourself. I have links posted later in this post as well YouTube links to his more popular songs. 2. Please message in the chat when your ticket has been purchased. 3. We will meet for dinner at 5pm. Please be on time. If you are going to be more than 5 minutes late, please post in the chat or message me. Many people flake to these events so in order to keep it moving we would like to know who is actually coming. 4. Please bring cash 5. HAVE FUN! After a few false starts, I realized that I need to pick only events that have General Admission or else we would still all be sitting apart from each other. Fortunately there are some great events coming up. We will meet at Suzu Noodle House, a good ramen place in Japantown. This is a good and affordable ramen restaurant that also has other Japanese comfort food options. Here is their yelp page: [https://www.yelp.com/biz/suzu-noodle-house-san-francisco](https://www.yelp.com/biz/suzu-noodle-house-san-francisco) Dilated Peoples is a legendary hip hop trio consisting of Evidence, Rakaa Iriscience, and DJ Babu. They had many well-known rap songs in the early 2000s. Here are some of their more famous songs: 1. Worst Comes to Worst: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sevZEOUXpw4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sevZEOUXpw4) 2. This Way: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rbo9QlcLcX8&list=RDRbo9QlcLcX8&start_radio=1](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rbo9QlcLcX8&list=RDRbo9QlcLcX8&start_radio=1) You can buy tickets here: Ticketmaster: [https://www.ticketmaster.com/dilated-peoples-san-francisco-california-10-29-2026/event/1C00648F95D78073](https://www.ticketmaster.com/dilated-peoples-san-francisco-california-10-29-2026/event/1C00648F95D78073) (Please make sure to pick General Admission if there is an option) If you have any other suggestions, let me know and I’ll post it. Eat Drink Dance This is a new Meetup group trying to build a group of like-minded people who enjoy food music and community. The drinking is up to you. In this group I will find new music, make new friends, and have fun. So get out of the house and meet some new people! I will be picking shows around the Bay Area - anything from underground hip hop, R&B, EDM/Trance, and of course indie & alternative rock. We will pick a restaurant (within walking distance of the show) to meet at, have dinner and drinks (if you drink), then slam a Red Bull and walk to the venue. And if anyone wants, we can have a nightcap drink after to talk about the show. Sound Fun?? I am open to new artists and any suggestions. Ultimately I will pick whatever I like, but I started this group because I also love finding new music so I am easily convinced. But note I am trying to only pick shows that have a General Admission option so that we don’t need to get seats ahead of time and sit away from each other. FYI - this event organizer is unpaid..All participants are 100% responsible for their own safety!

Welcome back San Francisco Green Drinkers!!! San Francisco Green Drinks is pleased to announce we are hosting our monthly **In-person Happy Hour Networking Event** on **Wednesday, October 21st**, at **Southern Pacific Brewing** \- a venue that should be familiar to our friends from Climatebase\, Work on Climate\, and others in the San Francisco Bay Area Climate Solutions Community\! Please note the change from Second Thursday to Third Wednesdays, both in October and going forward. Southern Pacific Brewing is located in a spacious warehouse in the Mission's industrial heart, that has been renovated into a bright and expansive brewery and restaurant complete with outdoor seating. It's about 6 blocks, or a 15-minute walk (less by bike!) from 16th Street Mission BART, so please plan ahead! Look for us at a table inside or in the Courtyard, depending on weather and crowds. Remember to bring your business cards, your positive attitude and your interest in discussing sustainability and climate change. Nametags will be available, but reusable ones are encouraged. Also, bring your cash or credit cards to pay for drinks. And be sure to tip our servers! As always, we encourage Green Drinkers to use public transportation, walk, bike or use some other form of low-carbon transportation to get to our event. If you need an escort to BART or Muni at the end of the night, feel free to ask one of our event volunteers! Look forward to seeing you there!! John Tripp President, San Francisco Green Drinks *** If you are interested in volunteering to help run SF Green Drinks, please reach out. I love hosting the event, but I'm always looking for volunteers, and I'd love to rebuild the leadership team! If your organization or someone you know is interested in sponsoring a SF Green Drinks Event, or you have an event space and would like to talk to us about hosting our event at your location, please contact me at: JohnPenfieldTripp@gmail.com The invite will be updated to include the specific date when the event is announced, usually about 1-2 weeks in advance, but we are always on the **Third Wednesday of the month**, unless announced otherwise.

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/DAj4J01B7domKHRs4YR1 **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** Wow! We had such a huge turnout last time! We had to do this event again! And we're doing it whether you just went crazy last night and want a low-stakes way to recover or if you're trying to extend your Halloween celebrations ;) Our IRL Friend Event is like no other in the city. Here, you'll meet someone new every 8 minutes. It's literally real-life speed friending! We're going to kick things off with 1-1 conversations, and you'll chat with several different people who share your enthusiasm for beer and SF. It is a completely zero-pressure way to see who you naturally vibe with. After the rounds, you'll pick the folks you enjoyed talking to most, and we will all head to the beer garden across the block for drinks together. By the end, you're around a table with 4-6 people you just met but already like, clinking glasses and enjoying the day. Whether these new friends turn into your regular beer garden crew or it just ends up being a genuinely fun time after crazy Halloween, I promise you will be glad you joined us. The Plan: - 4:50PM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone and get ready to mingle. - 5:00PM - 6:00PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you up for focused, easy chats. Find out who shares your favorite brews, go-to spots, and easygoing weekend energy. - 6:00PM+: Form Groups & head to the nearby beer garden together. Reconnect with your favorite matches, form a crew of 4-6, and head out to grab a table and a round of drinks — your group leaves together today. Let's move past just swapping brewery recommendations but never actually getting together for a pint. Today, we'll actually grab drinks with new folks and maybe even form a tight-knit squad for new beer gardens and breweries to explore. Plus, when the glasses are empty and you want to plan your next tasting, you can easily stay in touch with everyone through the app afterward without ever swapping phone numbers. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/DAj4J01B7domKHRs4YR1 **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**

Just some convivial folks hanging out at a neighborhood pub with their skechbooks. You don't have to be an "artist," or whatever that means, to be here. Bringing art supplies is a great idea though! Hydration is encouraged! The Flying Pig sells soft drinks and other n/a options as well as beer and cider. 
We come up with a theme or prompt for each week. You're free to use it or ignore it. It's about inspiring to stray from the norm. Speaking of which, this week's theme/prompt is [TBA]
