Dear LOCAL subscribers -
RE/Search recommends the following Bay Area events, and will personally have a table with RE/Search magazines for sale at some of them - come by and talk with us!

() FRI JULY 17, 2009 9pm CAFE DU NORD: FLIPPER, SAVAGE REPUBLIC, TOILING MIDGETS. What an "all star" lineup! This is probably THE place to be tonight (although, sadly, the Zeros are ALSO playing at the Elbo Room tonight -- not fair; we want to be at BOTH events). FLIPPER will feature their new bassist; SAVAGE REPUBLIC's reunion appearances are very rare; TOILING MIDGETS are masters of instrumental emotional moodscapes. Cafe du Nord is at Market / Noe Sts, San Francisco. RE/Search will have a table; hope to see you there.

() FRI JULY 17 9pm ELBO ROOM: ZEROS. 'Nuff said, as per preceding paragraph. We saw them TWICE at Gilman St a few weeks ago -- perfect shows...
