Inspired by the long spate of banal commercial music and talentless
DJs plaguing the City of San Francisco, False Profit LLC and Dub
Beautiful Collective are conducting a Joint Operation to showcase the
talent of actual musicians and producers at the How Weird Street
Faire.
False Profit LLC has made a showing at the Faire for several years
with its subversive blend of anti-corporate attitude, plush couches,
and edible items made with suspect ingredients. This year, False
Profit returns with a full music stage backed by the unrelenting force
of Dub Beautiful Collective, which is well known for producing live
electronic music events (and FP chill rooms) since 2000.
“With the rise of the DJ at the forefront of the electronic music
scene, we need live music performances to remind us that people are
actually making music in addition to pushing play,” stated Dub
Beautiful’s Chief Snark Officer Maer Ben-Yisrael. The stage will
feature 5 live acts in the down- and mid-tempo genres and, in an
effort to appease the Faire organizers, 3 DJs. The audience zone will
be soft, comfortable, shady, and stocked with tools to perform PDA
(public displays of art) and PDB (public disruptions of branding).
The Street Faire will host 5 other stages representing Breaks, House,
Electro, Trance, and Trance [sic] as well as vendors, beer tents,
non-profit organzations, and other artists & activists.
Known DJ sympathizer and False Profit CBO benchun issued a statement
of enthused support from the offices of his self-imposed exile
somewhere in the wastelands of the East Bay public educational system,
adding, “I don’t know what their big fucking deal is with DJs.”
This represents the 7th year of the How Weird Street Faire, which is
renowned as the best outdoor street party in San Francisco, drawing
top freaks, costumes, weirdos, performers, and general nutters.
Visit http://www.dub-beautiful.org for details on the stage & music
and http://www.howweird.org for info on the Faire.
The Faire is all ages – $10 requested donation, $5 if in costume, and
kids enter free. Entrances at Howard and 11th Streets, and South Van
Ness and 12th Streets.
Dub Beautiful Collective and False Profit remind you to support live
music, kill your idols, and please… no requests.
