$1 Jell-o Shots, Animal Behaviour and $100 to the newest CHICKENBEAR at the Powerhouse July 4

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

Animal house.

'œAre you bummed that there isn’t a San Francisco Street fair that specifically targets your metaphoric internal homo animal designation? Are you sorta chickeny? Fox-curious? Wolflexible? Does hotmusclebear.com leave you lukewarm? Are you a Turkey Vulture? A pigasus? A bearacat?'

So say Walter Gòmez and Mica Sigourney of CHICKENBEAR. Sounding like half menagerie/ half menu, they clearly want things to be all encompassing at their Powerhouse fundraiser.

The mating dance goes from 7 to 11 with cheap booze of rotating selection and $1 Jell-o shots, providing one more pit stop to slosh through on the Sunday migration that occurs between the Eagle and Paradise Lounge.

Perhaps hoping to stem some inebriation they are featuring a menu of cupcakes and hot dogs, which could have varying results depending on how cross-eyed you are.  Here I thought the natural choice would be turducken.

A fiver donation goes to support Mama Calizo’s Voice Factory, which if you feel is too steep can quickly be redeemed plus $95 more if you win their contest to become the newest CHICKENBEAR.  They promise helpful hints from their 'œferal' go-go boys.  Gamey enough?

Stephen Torres - Threadbare-Fact Finder (Editor, San Francisco)

Stephen's early years were spent in a boxcar overlooking downtown Los Angeles. From there he moved around the state with his family before settling under the warm blanket of smog that covers suburban Southern California. Moving around led to his inability to stay in one place for very long, but San Francisco has been reeling him back in with its siren song since 1999.
By trade he pours booze, but likes to think he can write and does so occasionally for the SF Bay Guardian, Bold Italic and 7x7. He also likes to enjoy time spent in old eateries, bars and businesses that, by most standards, would have been condemned a long time ago.
