All - David Gans did a "back yard party" in the back yard of my radio-show colleague (chair of the Philosophy department) a year or so ago. Very good show -- definitely appropriate for the Complex. His style tends to be a bit more laid back than Cowgirls -- he's somewhat more of a "sit and listen" than a "get up and dance" performer. The Pub and Grill at SF Brewing, or the San Francisco Street Bar and Grill also come to mind . . .
I probably should work up a "social networking among deadheads" project for the Summer School :-) . . . some years ago, I had a grad student (went on for her Ph.D. in neurophysiology) who studied the "flashback" phenomenon among deadheads -- we found that it was mostly a myth (and also published some work deconstructing some of DSM IV, for those of you who might be familiar). tom p.s. If you haven't seen it yet, Crazy Heart (the Jeff Bridges movie) is at least amusing, and is largely set in / filmed in Santa Fe -- I enjoyed it . . . and there are some "venues" in it that looked about right for David Gans :-) On Mar 20, 2010, at 5:54 PM, Stephen Guerin wrote: > Pamela, > > The Complex could be a good venue.
