BISS List 12.15.22: NYE 2023 + Best of BISS this Week

What’s Jammin BISS Listers?

The plethora of amazing musical options continues this week as it seems to have been doing for the last few weeks. It makes me happy to see our full calendar so full of shows. The Best of BISS section is overflowing with shows from now through which you can see for yourself.   I think we are just ramping up to the first “REAL” New Years Eve celebration since the time-warped-worm-hole of pandemic times quieted our favorite stages. It looks like we are going to make up for it this time around. With that, I thought we here at BISS List should shed some light on the Best of NYE with the Spotlight below so you can finalize those plans!

Before we get to that… How about this weekend? Friday, I am thinking about the intimate show with The Sam Chase & The Untraditional @ Amado’s. Saturday afternoon, come celebrate the Holidays with Love on Haight and bring some Rainbow to your day for the Tie Dye Santa Party w/ MJ Brass Boppers Brass Band!  Saturday night, I know I will see many of you for Allman Family Revival + Dumpstaphunk at The Fillmore (*WIN*) on Saturday night? And will I see you on Sunday for the 47th Bill Graham Menorah: Chanukah in Union Square? They light the first candle at 4:45. It is always fun to bar hop, light candles, ice skate and bar hop some more in the beautiful light of the Menorah and the giant X-Mas tree!
