BISS List 6.22.22: High Sierra + Mark Karan’s Budz + Best of BISS this Week

Happy Summer Solstice BISS Listers!

Is it just me or did the month of June just fly by? It could be just me working up at Hog Farm Hideaway, followed by Tupac Day, followed by packing to move to the Haight… But seriously, I mean High Sierra is next week already!

Speaking of High Sierra, ROLL CALL! And further speaking of High Sierra, while there are always so many artists I love playing at High Sierra but I am curious to know who you think is not to be missed and might not be on my radar? Let me know so I can add to my schedule.

Never fear, the BISS team has it all covered in my absence so you can count on getting your BISS List delivered to your mailbox next week. I also advise you to check out the Best of BISS section on the website cause there are a LOT of good shows coming up in and around the Bay Area!

See you at the shows,
~ Pamela aka Miss BISS
