audiences go nuts

Any burg can have a tree lighting ceremony or singalong Handel during the holidays. In San Francisco you can round up your grandkids and take them to a Dance-along Nutcracker. The Geezer advises a matinee not only for the discounts but because kids are not allowed at evening performances. After all this massively entertaining event is […]

fuel your fantasies

For geezers whose longtime affair with the automobile is still in high gear, check out the 53rd Annual International Auto Show. It’s at Moscone Center from Nov.20-29 and a steal at $9.

The screen is ginormous -14 feet tall and […]

On Saturday Oct 30 out at Richmond’s spectacular glass Craneway Pavilion catch the San Francisco ShEvil Dead vs the Richmond Wrecking Belles […]

embalming 101

Why fool around with skeleton costumes this Halloween when you can have the real thing?
