This longtime home to bikers and blue-collars has transformed itself into one of the city's finest small rooms for rock. The calendar is jammed with the crème de la crème of garage, punk, metal, indie, and underground acts delivering intimate shows in the main room for a low cover. The back patio is great on warm afternoons and evenings, too.
Remember that big Muni bus that got torched while we were all out celebrating the Giants' World Series win? Well, it didn't go up in flames without a fight: 28-year-old S.F. native Simon Timony tried ... More »
When Bruce Roehrs — singular San Franciscan, longtime Maximum Rocknroll columnist, and unabashed follower of savage rock 'n' roll — passed away in 2010, it incited an surge of support from the local music community. He was laid to rest in the San... More »

Many locals complain that our music scene has a lot of bands and a lot of fans but very little community. That's not the case at Thee Parkside, where, as its Web site boasts, "the staff drinks right along with you." As many who've been to Thee Parkside's budget rock Fridays can attest, this place is one of the coolest, cheapest, most hospitable spots to catch garage, punk, and country-fried rock in town.
