"If you don't have a fake ID or enough money to bribe your way in, then make it come to you — the indie rock scene, that is. SF's notorious dearth of all ages venues (Bottom of the Hill and Rickshaw being two occasional exceptions) has fed the Club Sandwich collective's fan base and roster of intermittent gigs held on both sides of the Bay. Recent shows have included psychedelic electro-pranksters Seahorse Liberation Army and lo-fi indie folksters Mt. Eerie, while future events feature local noise heroes Clipd Beaks and frenetic thrashers Jonny X and the Groadies." - Flavorpill
About me: Club Sandwich Bay Area is an all-ages show collective
putting on events for under-the-radar
musicians, mixing touring & local music.
We have to be extremely selective about booking shows since WE ARE NOT A VENUE, and we are all volunteers. Shows are almost always curated around a touring act, and only happen when we have enough time & energy to make them awesome. Take a look at some of our past shows to see what kind of bands we work with. Thanks!

It's been a year now since the start of the super producer based night of live beat making began. EGADZ returns to SF for his last show EVER in SF, plus MOPHONO & E DA BOSS???!!!!! THIS SHOW IS GOING TO BE SOOO DOPE! Get there early.
Finally…here is the new split cassette from Eloi and Mike M and it is called “Cramped Living”. This release plays out like a nocturnal AM-radio transmission drenched in honey. Side A features Eloi sleepwalking through a hothouse jungle, full of whispers and flickering lights.. And Side B features Mike M’s soundtrack of desert wanders in search of fata morgana.
Next Holy Thursday is going to be off the hook! Don't miss some real button pushing this month with Devon Who, Edison and Book Worms. It's been getting more and more packed, get there early. <img src="http://img237.imageshack.us/img237/7749/ht10.jpg>
