Best of SF Wild Weekend compilations now available

It's August, which I always think of as Wild Weekend time. Fond memories of festivals gone by, never to be repeated. The Wild Weekend was a special time and place. To celebrate the music performed during the Wild Weekend, I produced special compilation CDs in 2001 and 2002. Some of the bands featured have since been included on other worthy local compilations (like the KFOG series), gone on tour, broken up, morphed or moved away. But all of them can claim a place in the vast history of the SF rock scene, as the best SF music in 2002 and 2001. The tracks are rock solid and diverse, substantiating my theory that every band has "one great song".

I had a few boxes left and decided to rerelease these wonderful CDs. They're cheap ($10) and fun and $1 from each will go to Mission Hospice of San Mateo County. Nadine's Wild Weekend 2002: "Nadine’s Faves Too" features killer tracks by: Karmacoda, essence, Five A.M., Autopunch, The Locals, The Fingers, Kindness, Single, Butch Berry, gimbo, Simon Stinger, west by god, M.Headphone, Victory Gin, Slender, and Scorched-Earth Policy.
