A typical weekend in the Bay Area gives you a dizzying number of nightlife options to choose from. With one of the most original and active nightclub scenes available anywhere in the U.S. (and perhaps the world) we thought it would be quite useful for our Bay Area party people to have a weekly guide showcasing some quality upcoming events we KNOW will deliver! So, each Thursday we'll help you get ready for the weekend and coming week right here... This week we're checking out Pride Fridays with party crews Les Beaux and .flourish at 1015 Folsom, an old school Hip Hop party w/ Bronx Legends at John Colins, Escape Fridays w/ Vegas resident Risk One at Infusion Lounge and more.

Thursday June 21st Lee Burridge @ Vessel Considered one of the most talented underground DJs, Lee Burridge makes his way to Vessel and BASE this Thursday for a set that "joins the dots between tech house, techno, deep house and beyond.. consistently held together with that signature hypnotic groove." An SF favorite, he's an infectiously mischievous performer with a peerless ability to string together distantly related tracks in a mix - creating "Lee's" sound. He's known for mind-blowing marathon sets and has destroyed dancefloors from Burning Man to Fabric London - and he'll be lining up for another this Thursday at Vessel.

Thursday June 21st Above & Beyond @ The Warfield One of the premier trance acts in the world, the English trio Above & Beyond bring their lush, cinematic sound to The Warfield for the first of two nights this week. With an emotional and warm sound added to driving sleek beats they've enchanted global audiences by managing to keep huge performances (over 1 million people at a show in Rio) somehow still personal. Their songs connect with audiences, giving goose bumps, yet still moving the dancefloor. Tickets might be hard to come by - so we suggest to start looking now.

They will be taking over the main room with two stories of space, huge sound and spectacular lighting plus a separate "Soft Cell" space w/ ambient music and seating for quieter conversations and getting to know someone new.
