[UPDATE: OMG COCO is finally here. Follow the action via Twitter at #cobnob.]
Oh, it’s on. It’s going to be Coco a Gogo when Conan O’Brien’s “half-assed“ 32-city “Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour 2010“ comes to the Nob Hill Masonic Auditorium April 22-23. It’ll be just like 2007 all over again.
“Full Price Tickets” from TicketMonster are going right now for $74, all up. And for just $695 you can get in on the Meet and Greet Package- wouldn’t you like a photo of you and Conan to put on the FaceBook for all your “friends” to see? Sure you would.

I don’t know, maybe you can score some cheaper ticks by using your AmEx card or going to the box office or something.
See you there!

As promised, the free, “hella entertaining” Most Interesting Show in the World rocked San Francisco’s SoMA district last night at The Mezzanine. Dos Equis picked up the tab and brought a truckload of smooth, refreshing XX Ambar (Amber?) and XX Lager to hand out for free. Verily, it was “dope.” If this is how our corporate overlords want to spend their money during a recession, whom are we to argue?
See below to discover if this show is coming to your town next. If you’re in Houston, Texas, you can get your ticks now. Otherwise, you’ll have to figure things out on your own. (You had to go through ShowClix to get tickets in S.F.)
[UPDATE: Now you can get tickets for all shows by clicking on TOUR DATES here and then on "RSVP" for your town. Still a few ticks left in Fun Diego, I see...]
Sax-playing host Angelo Moore of Fishbone is the high-energy MC on the MISW ’09 tour:

The crowd seemed to be in a good mood:

It’s Melody Sweets!:

Beatboxer Butterscotch accompanying what must be the world’s largest saxamophone – a purple bass:

The Human Spring!:

There were whips and crossbows in the house, but edged weapons were the order of the day:

Mr. and Mrs. G have a Mr. and Mrs. Smith thing going on, apparently.

Aiming a crossbow using a mirror to pop a balloon. Love hurts:

The whole shebang was a benefit for the San Francisco Food Bank:

This was the line early on going up Jessie Street betwixt 5th and 6th Streets. But everybody got in so long as they had their printed-out ticket. The Mezz at Triple Four Jessie appears to be a well run nightclub, with an aware but mellow staff that enforces rules without any unneccesary vitriol. Hurray!

Is it the Most Interesting Show in the World? Check it:

San Francisco’s Obamamania is back in full force now the we are on the eve on the Democratic national Convention in Denver.
This Dolce & Gabbana bus ad is typical of what you’ll see on the streets of S.F. these days:

Well, at least for this particularly oddly-shaped piece of real estate on Main Street near Folsom, the answer is this many:

“Last in, first out.” Click to expand.
It might be a pain to park here, under the shadow of the new Infinity San Francisco towers, but at least you won’t get the boot, or get into a chain reaction accident, or get all messy. Of course, if you work for San Francisco Honda, then just park wherever - the sidewalk, for example.
Lastly, DO NOT PAY THIS MAN!
Now you’re all set.

Toyota Prius owners in California already have some immunity from getting moving violation tickets, but more help is needed.
What about parking tickets? Perhaps we should make Priuseses fully immune from parking tickets as well. That would encourage more people to drive hybrids, right? And then we wouldn’t be forced to witness a sad scene like this, where a car that’s supposed to going 80 miles per in the fast lane with just one occupant is sidelined with a bum leg.

By the way, parking tickets are going up to $60 soon. Happy motoring!
