All through June KXSF has been honoring PRIDE by airing a series of PSAs focusing on different segments and/or issues impacting the LGBTQ community, including trans people, gay seniors and lesbian legal rights. So it's only fitting that we close out PRIDE month celebrating the future -- LGBTQQ youth! |

"LIVE MUSIC RETURNS" BENEFIT SMASH
|
|
Thanks to all of you who turned out last Sunday at Zeitgeist in the Mission to see KXSF's first live, in-person benefit show since February of 2020. The vibe was celebratory and kind, the music by Down Dirty Shake, Bolero! and DJ Pops was kick ass, and the crowd was OFF THE HOOK! There was even a line to get in! It was the first time many of our KXSF volunteers were able to meet one another in person. DJ3D (The BYOB Show every other Thursday, 6-9pm) put it best when he said "Sparks were flying! It was like watching everyone's first date!" Hope you enjoy some of the pictures here, captured by our radio volunteers.

A special KXSF Live Music Returns commemorative T-shirt was made by our friends at Babylon Burning for the event, and we still have a few in various sizes and colors in supply. If you'd like one, use this QR code to donate $25 and mention in the "notes" that you'd like a Zeitgeist T-shirt with your preferred color and size.

THE SOUNDS OF SUMMER 2021 |
All of us here at KXSF are so happy to be out and about again. But that doesn't mean we've forgotten our "bread and butter," bringing you quality, diverse radio programming 24/7. So while we hope to see you our events, we are incredibly grateful that you continue to tune into 102.5 FM in San Francisco, or kxsf.fm online, and take in all our KXSF DJs and hosts have to offer.

KXSF continues to be 100% volunteer operated and listener supported, so "attend" a benefit stream, hit the tip jar during a KXSF DJ Night, go to a real live benefit show, snag a T-shirt, or just log onto kxsf.fm/donate and help keep us up and running, and supporting our local community. And most of all, enjoy your summer with family and friends.
Peace, from all your friends at San Francisco Community Radio
