16th & Mission Open Mic (w/out a mic)

For nearly two decades, this Thursday night staple at the southwest corner of 16th & Mission BART has been San Francisco's most democratic stage: poets, musicians, emcees, comedians, and anyone brave enough to speak into the void, in any language, under the stars and amid the pigeons. It's 9pm to midnight, completely free, and the most authentically SF thing you can do with your Thursday.
