Hot Laundry proves that a good time and a broke bank account aren't mutually exclusive, fusing Motown harmony with garage-rock grit into a full-production dance revue that's already made converts across two continents.

A 17-year San Francisco punk institution, Thee Parkside, is shutting down, another casualty of gentrification dressed up as “progress.” Of course, it’s more than a venue loss: it’s the erasure of a living, breathing community hub where music, misfits, and chosen family thrived. Unchecked development isn’t just displacing people, it’s hollowing out the soul of the city. The final nights at Parkside double as both a celebration and a protest, capturing a scene that refuses to go quietly, even as it’s priced out of existence.
