Doug Woods Spins 78s - Sundays
Our good friend, Doug Woods, brings his 78 records and spins them on our in-house Victrola every Sunday!
Sundays, 7:00pm -
until he decides its time to go (usually around 11ish)
It's a great chance to hear the music as it was played in the 1930s and 40's and catch him in the act of changing needles and winding the player. Don't forget to add a contribution to his
tip jar
!

San Francisco Bitcoin Meetup and Happy Hour at the Club Moderne
Still the best way to get an education into bitcoin and likely future direction of the crypto-currency movement is to come meet the knowledgable members of the San Francisco Bitcoin Meetup group.
And remember, we are still the only bar in San Francisco that accepts bitcoin as payment for drinks. We are pleased to be again hosting the Bitcoin Meetup Group for a special monthly Happy Hour!
BTW -- All drinks paid for with bitcoin will receive happy hour pricing during the event! That works out to $2 off cocktails and spirits and $1 off beer and wine....
Wednesday, April 18, 6:30 - 10:00pm
