Gilman Street Project

I went to some amazing shows here when I was a teenager and it’s nice to see kids are still rocking out to punk bands at the Gilman.

its punk rock !!!

From Wikipedia:
In April 1986, the founders located the building at 924 Gilman Street and signed a lease. In the following months, the founders, including Tim Yohannon of Maximum Rocknroll, held weekly organizational meetings and posted flyers to increase involvement. Finally on December 31, 1986, the club held its first show. Since then, 924 Gilman Street has been one of the longest running independent music venues in the United States[citation needed]. 924 Gilman opened several months after the closing of two important San Francisco punk venues, the Mabuhay Gardens and The Farm and was started in part because of the lack of punk venues in the San Francisco Bay Area during this era, particularly all-​ages venues.
This place would get 5 stars if there weren’t so many stupid rules to follow. It’s a great all ages club, and I have seen many bands from all over the country and world at this venue. The people are honest about paying bands which is another plus, and the kids are really into the music. There is a Pyramid brewery across the street, which was built a few years back. Usually, you can see the 21+ mohawk type people in there drinking beers on a Friday and Saturday night. I am not sure if kids still go to drink at the creek, but if you want to savor that Mickeys 40oz, and aren’t yet 21, you probably shouldn’t do it in front of the club (no drinking rule). Anyways, go to this club. It’s only 5 bucks. If you aren’t a member, it’s an extra 2 $ and you get a little card that is good for a year.
