18th Street Zoltron art wall revisited
Last time we checked out the Zoltron art wall on 18th St, the collaborative and spontaneous art project was already well underway. I stopped by again today and I’m happy to report that the effort has continued! The ever-changing nature of the wall means there’s always something new. I’ll be a little sad to see…

What does this mean, Clipper?
Sometimes a phrase makes sense all on its own. Other times, it needs a bit of context. I spotted the cryptic statement “Always have $1.25 on your card” on a Clipper reader at a CalTrain platform.

Four Barrel’s new parklet
Four Barrel opened their new parklet today. There’s a wood bar to hold your beverages, a brick flooring, and a bike rack in the middle.

18th Street Zoltron art wall
Zoltron has covered a plywood wall on the long-boarded up space on 18th and Dolores. Eventually this space will become the new home of Bi-Rite’s 18 Reasons, but for now it’s livening up the Mission’s “Gourmet Ghetto.” Update: It’s a collaborative, spontaneous art piece. I’ll let Zoltron explain what’s going on.

Yet another punk show at 16th Mission Bart
Yesterday evening we had another little punk show at the 16th Mission Bart stop. Unlike many previous shows, this one was right in the middle of things; not much buffer zone between the audience and the band. I wasn’t there when they finished up, but I hear that things ended quite early.

Ed Lee for Mayor
The Ed Lee for mayor campaign has to be one of the strangest campaigns in recent history. The guy hasn’t entered the race, and has plainly stated that he won’t run. Which means this mayoral campaign isn’t run by Lee himself, but by fans attempting to pressure him into the mayor’s race. It’s a clear…
