" With all this machinery making modern music, it's great to see that big bands are back grooving on styles from Ska to Afro-beat to even the premier of a special Eno-orchestra. Live hip-hop is back with a new home in the Mission's new club 12 Galaxies as True Skool brings back live acts to the mix. DNA's stages a fund raiser for the St. James Infirmary for the hard-rockin' and gothedelically inclined. Here's another serving of six summer audio treats: "

" City classics the Haight St. Fair and the Annual Stern Grove free concert series will both be jumpstarting the summer season on Sunday June 13th. So do you roll through the Haight early and then over to Stern Grove in time to catch openers Tin Hat Trio? Or do you start out at the Grove and bust a crazy move to squeeze your way into the sun and alcohol soaked Haight Street fair before it ends at 5:30? From Hip-Hop and Hindi music and industrial Indie to African Griot and the runaway rock-kitty, all have come to town for our summer in the City. "

" May turns electric, eclectic and experimental. The Bay Area has always been home to the great experimenters. The next few weeks bring in a amazing array of boundary pushing talent from Buckethead to the highly visual multimedia shows of the Kronos Quartet and RJD2. Salty old punks the New Model Army come over from across the pond to play the DNA. And the good old East Bay delivers two of their finest: Rogue Wave and Hyim & the Fat Foakland Orchestra all roll into town for your Great Night Out. "
