We are a group of house concert enthusiasts in the Bay Area. This group is created as a resource so that house concert hosts can find additional audience, artists can make friends with hosts, and music lovers can discover interesting house concerts in their area. Don't be scared off if a show only has one or two RSVPs, because most of our hosts get most of their audience from their own series regulars who may not RSVP here. Here is how it works: Each event you post will automatically become an o …

Feeling Arranging is a primitive form of Shamanism, which is nature based and very ancient. It’s about finding our original self through arranging our feelings. This group is for the adventurous and the fearless. Feeling Arranging is uniquely different from the shamanism and healing methods we know such as journeying, soul retrieval and meditation. We use darkness as a positive force to heal ourselves and to connect with our ancestors and nature. Like a seed needs a dark place to incubate before …

I like unique events that aren't stuffy and a little off the beaten path. I am interested in poetry readings, lectures, book signings, theater, art openings, experimental music, and other related events. I'm hoping to find a few like minded folks in the Bay Area who would like to attend these events on occasion with me! I am looking for cheap stuff to do so you won't find any opera or symphony events here (unless they're free!) So many artists out there, it's great to support your local art scen …

This is a group to collect/connect jazz musicians,jazz listeners/lovers, and dance lovers at a place where all these things are possible. Currently many clubs featuring great jazz don't have much space for dancing--strange because the fun of moving to music is so natural! However, at most rock etc dance clubs the music is at bio hazard volume levels. Our JJ&D events feature dance-friendly space & creative music at an enjoyable level great for your all-over health! Dancing--all types, beats, etc. …

These days, most of the dance clubs and social meetup groups are focused on music from the 80s and later, from hair metal to house to hip-hop to funk/R&B to DJ mashups and the like. What is missing is a group with an emphasis on live band music from oldies rock and roll, to classic 60s rock (the British invasion, beach music, folk and acid rock, etc.) through the more popular 70s rock (Eagles, Doobies, etc.) You know the kind of music I am talking about! Well, THIS IS IT! Dancing to live mus …

Ahlan wa sahlan habibis!  Welcome to the San Francisco Lebanese Culture and Social Club.  The idea to start this group came to me over time.  I am a Recruiter and one day I was given an assignment to find an Arabic-speaking software engineer so, I started calling everyone who had "Arabic" on their resume. 20 minutes later :), I ran out of resumes. Then, onto Facebook. In retrospect, it wasn't the best recruiting strategy, I admit, but wow, it was fun! I ended up connecting with some Lebanese fol …
