Art and music classes are typically the first to go, which can leave low-income kids without much-needed creative outlets. In Sacramento, a community organization called Sol Collective was founded in 2003 to specifically combat this phenomenon. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a homegrown arts and activism center that offers free and low-cost after-school classes to kids of color. The building houses a recording studio, an art gallery and performance spaces. Images of Frida Kahlo are everywhere, along with Día de los Muertos themed posters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The all-girls DJ class is just one class in Sol Collective’s vast summer offerings. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10140189\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/photo-2-sol-collective.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/photo-2-sol-collective.jpg\" alt=\"Half of the all-girl DJ class takes turns learning how to spin.

She’s 15 years old and wears a pair of bright red headphones. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first time I got into DJing, I was like 8 years year old,” says Lopez. “I kept on listening to music 24/7. My dad was like, Nina get off your music and do your chores!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lopez is brimming with enthusiasm. She looks up to famous DJs like Skrillex, and her goal is to one day spin like the 26-year-old Dubstep legend. Lopez’s mother saw a Facebook post about Sol Collective earlier in the summer and jumped at the chance to sign up her daughter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sol Collective was founded by Estella Sanchez, who’s a DJ and performer herself. Like the young female DJs, Sanchez writes and records songs for her own band, called World Hood, in Sol Collective’s recording studio. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez started Sol Collective while working as a teacher in 2003. She witnessed firsthand how state budget cuts were affecting kids. “There was really nothing for them to do,” she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So during her lunch break, Sanchez saw a huge empty building with a “for rent” sign. She had a little extra income from living with her Dad and decided to put it toward renting the space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, more than ten years later, Sanchez receives substantial outside funding. Her biggest supporters are the California Endowment: Building Healthy Communities, (which also funds the RYSE Center in Richmond) and stores who rent out space at Sol Collective. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Sanchez wasn’t always a multitasking artist and teacher.

My dad was like, Nina get off your music and do your chores!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lopez is brimming with enthusiasm. She looks up to famous DJs like Skrillex, and her goal is to one day spin like the 26-year-old Dubstep legend. Lopez’s mother saw a Facebook post about Sol Collective earlier in the summer and jumped at the chance to sign up her daughter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sol Collective was founded by Estella Sanchez, who’s a DJ and performer herself. Like the young female DJs, Sanchez writes and records songs for her own band, called World Hood, in Sol Collective’s recording studio. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez started Sol Collective while working as a teacher in 2003. She witnessed firsthand how state budget cuts were affecting kids. “There was really nothing for them to do,” she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So during her lunch break, Sanchez saw a huge empty building with a “for rent” sign. She had a little extra income from living with her Dad and decided to put it toward renting the space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, more than ten years later, Sanchez receives substantial outside funding. Her biggest supporters are the California Endowment: Building Healthy Communities, (which also funds the RYSE Center in Richmond) and stores who rent out space at Sol Collective. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Sanchez wasn’t always a multitasking artist and teacher. Her parents were immigrant farm workers from Mexico and they didn’t have a lot of money for extracurricular activities.

From \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/pop/2013/12/13/the-genius-behind-beyonces-surprise-game-changing-visual-album-self-titled/\">surprise releases\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/pop/2013/12/16/beyonce-and-chimamanda-ngozi-adichie-make-feminism-go-viral/\">feminist schooling\u003c/a> to elevator brawls and divorce rumors, she's often the topic of water-cooler conversation, but never more so for San Franciscans than this week, which saw not one, but two shows at AT&T Park with her partner in crime, Jay Z. At least three people have told you that they could hear the concert from their house. And you probably already know that \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/Here-s-why-Beyonc-could-be-heard-all-over-S-F-5673191.php\">the cause was science\u003c/a>. But what's more interesting than noise pollution is the whole marital spectacle of the On the Run tour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Infidelity rumors have plagued the power couple for years, but the speculation around a possible breakup reached crescendo thanks to the infamous elevator footage of the Mortal Kombat-esque beatdown Solange administered to Jay Z, while her sister sentineled nearby. Because of the lack of audio and that bodyguard's confidentiality agreement, we will probably never know exactly what that was about, but it didn't take long for people to assume the kickboxing was inspired by cheating. It was an unusual crack in the perfect facade Beyonce and her team have maintained since the Destiny's Child days. But, instead of compromising her brand and this tour, the debacle actually brought more interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, most attended these shows for the music, but there's also a sort of twisted voyeuristic schadenfreude at work here. Because of everything that led up to the tour, it began to feel like the final act of a great romance we've all been a part of in a strange parasitic way for years. We watched as they strutted their young love back in 2003 for Beyonce's debut single \"\u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/ViwtNLUqkMY\">Crazy In Love\u003c/a>.\" We watched as she \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/uRVcKXlF42o\">revealed her pregnant belly\u003c/a> at an awards show. We watched them vacation and \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/pAT8CdKkKAY\">talk about utopia, Jesus, and Sade on a yacht\u003c/a>. So it makes sense that we would want to be there for the undoing of all that romantic history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignright wp-image-13070\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bey-cryy.jpg\" alt=\"bey-cryy\" width=\"350\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bey-cryy.jpg 480w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bey-cryy-400x501.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\">The tour's lights and video montages and pyrotechnics couldn't fully distract from the main event: taking a microscope to every choreographed interaction Beyonce and Jay shared on stage. Having attended both shows (\u003ca href=\"http://media.giphy.com/media/13jJIY0llDdip2/giphy.gif\">YOLO\u003c/a>), I had a lot of time to parse the body language and the main takeaway was that something is not right. Jay sidles up to hug Beyonce from behind at the end of \"Drunk In Love\" and Beyonce does her best not to recoil (\"OMG, she hates him!\" screamed two girls in front of me). Beyonce is a good actress, but she always lets a little something slip during these few interactions. And then there's Beyonce in a wedding dress fighting back tears while singing a song about a lying, trifling man from a 12 year relationship (the same time span as her courtship with Jay), or Beyonce borrowing Lauryn Hill's wounded \"It ain't workin, it ain't workin\" mantra from \"Ex Factor,\" or Jay mournfully rapping \"\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000\">I can understand why you want a divorce now\" in \"Song Cry.\" These songs are old, but the fact that they were specifically selected over countless others is noteworthy.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So all of this could mean two things. A. The rumors are true. They're only staying together to make bank ($100 million so far from this tour) before announcing their conscious uncoupling after the tour wraps. Or B. This entire divorce thing is part publicity stunt, part performance art. Messing with the idea of their marriage and family for profit would be a cynical move, but perhaps there are two marriages at work here, the one they live at home and the one they live for us on stage. Maybe they feel fine messing with our conception of them because, at the end of the day, we \u003cem>don't\u003c/em> know them; it's all fiction. And what makes better fiction than a plot twist or a heartbreaking betrayal? As much as we are obsessed with happily ever after, we sure do get bored of it pretty quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe the fantasy they package and present to us holds no real value in their day-to-day reality; maybe they are just playing characters in a modern day opera, putting on the show they know we want to see. Certainly Beyonce and Jay Z, two of the most famous people on the planet, know how to manipulate the media and the rest of us by now. Would it be that surprising if they were savvy enough to create a narrative that would keep us interested, keep us buying $300 tickets, while they laugh all the way to the bank?\u003c/p>\n\n",

From \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/pop/2013/12/13/the-genius-behind-beyonces-surprise-game-changing-visual-album-self-titled/\">surprise releases\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/pop/2013/12/16/beyonce-and-chimamanda-ngozi-adichie-make-feminism-go-viral/\">feminist schooling\u003c/a> to elevator brawls and divorce rumors, she's often the topic of water-cooler conversation, but never more so for San Franciscans than this week, which saw not one, but two shows at AT&T Park with her partner in crime, Jay Z. At least three people have told you that they could hear the concert from their house. And you probably already know that \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/Here-s-why-Beyonc-could-be-heard-all-over-S-F-5673191.php\">the cause was science\u003c/a>. But what's more interesting than noise pollution is the whole marital spectacle of the On the Run tour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Infidelity rumors have plagued the power couple for years, but the speculation around a possible breakup reached crescendo thanks to the infamous elevator footage of the Mortal Kombat-esque beatdown Solange administered to Jay Z, while her sister sentineled nearby. Because of the lack of audio and that bodyguard's confidentiality agreement, we will probably never know exactly what that was about, but it didn't take long for people to assume the kickboxing was inspired by cheating. It was an unusual crack in the perfect facade Beyonce and her team have maintained since the Destiny's Child days. But, instead of compromising her brand and this tour, the debacle actually brought more interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, most attended these shows for the music, but there's also a sort of twisted voyeuristic schadenfreude at work here. Because of everything that led up to the tour, it began to feel like the final act of a great romance we've all been a part of in a strange parasitic way for years. We watched as they strutted their young love back in 2003 for Beyonce's debut single \"\u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/ViwtNLUqkMY\">Crazy In Love\u003c/a>.\" We watched as she \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/uRVcKXlF42o\">revealed her pregnant belly\u003c/a> at an awards show. We watched them vacation and \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/pAT8CdKkKAY\">talk about utopia, Jesus, and Sade on a yacht\u003c/a>. So it makes sense that we would want to be there for the undoing of all that romantic history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignright wp-image-13070\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bey-cryy.jpg\" alt=\"bey-cryy\" width=\"350\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bey-cryy.jpg 480w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bey-cryy-400x501.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\">The tour's lights and video montages and pyrotechnics couldn't fully distract from the main event: taking a microscope to every choreographed interaction Beyonce and Jay shared on stage. Having attended both shows (\u003ca href=\"http://media.giphy.com/media/13jJIY0llDdip2/giphy.gif\">YOLO\u003c/a>), I had a lot of time to parse the body language and the main takeaway was that something is not right. Jay sidles up to hug Beyonce from behind at the end of \"Drunk In Love\" and Beyonce does her best not to recoil (\"OMG, she hates him!\" screamed two girls in front of me). Beyonce is a good actress, but she always lets a little something slip during these few interactions. And then there's Beyonce in a wedding dress fighting back tears while singing a song about a lying, trifling man from a 12 year relationship (the same time span as her courtship with Jay), or Beyonce borrowing Lauryn Hill's wounded \"It ain't workin, it ain't workin\" mantra from \"Ex Factor,\" or Jay mournfully rapping \"\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000\">I can understand why you want a divorce now\" in \"Song Cry.\" These songs are old, but the fact that they were specifically selected over countless others is noteworthy.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They're only staying together to make bank ($100 million so far from this tour) before announcing their conscious uncoupling after the tour wraps. Or B. This entire divorce thing is part publicity stunt, part performance art. Messing with the idea of their marriage and family for profit would be a cynical move, but perhaps there are two marriages at work here, the one they live at home and the one they live for us on stage. Maybe they feel fine messing with our conception of them because, at the end of the day, we \u003cem>don't\u003c/em> know them; it's all fiction. And what makes better fiction than a plot twist or a heartbreaking betrayal? As much as we are obsessed with happily ever after, we sure do get bored of it pretty quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe the fantasy they package and present to us holds no real value in their day-to-day reality; maybe they are just playing characters in a modern day opera, putting on the show they know we want to see. Certainly Beyonce and Jay Z, two of the most famous people on the planet, know how to manipulate the media and the rest of us by now. Would it be that surprising if they were savvy enough to create a narrative that would keep us interested, keep us buying $300 tickets, while they laugh all the way to the bank?\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>“Surviving \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfoutsidelands.com/home/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Outside Lands\u003c/a>?” my friend asks me, incredulously. “The only way to survive three days of loud music, hot weather and hordes of people is to \u003cem>not go\u003c/em> to Outside Lands.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a common misconception, the idea that huge music festivals are for teenagers with boundless energy and a bottomless capacity for indulgence. But even if, like me, you’re not exactly a spring chicken anymore, there are ways to spend three days in Golden Gate Park this weekend, see great performers, and get out of there alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take it from someone who’s been at Outside Lands every year since its inception. Here’s what I’ve learned in the last decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Getting There\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>There’s only been a couple years I actually parked in the neighborhood, and even then, it was an eight-block, hilly walk to the park. One year I fought the crowds on MUNI, waiting in a huge throng to squeeze onto a packed bus. Neither were ideal. And Uber’s \u003ca href=\"https://archives.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2014/08/11/uber-charges-up-to-290-per-ride-at-outside-lands\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“surge pricing” for the festival\u003c/a> is insane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Easily the best way to get to Outside Lands is to take that clunky old 10-speed, throw it in your trunk with a bungee cord, park for free near Ocean Beach and \u003cstrong>ride your bike in\u003c/strong>. This way you can pick up any provisions you’ve forgotten (and cheap sandwiches!) at the supermarket \u003cem>and\u003c/em> say hi to \u003ca href=\"http://openplac.es/trips/bison-in-golden-gate-park-san-francisco\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the buffalo\u003c/a> along the way. And at the end of the long day, it’s a downhill ride all the way to your car, with no traffic getting out. Easy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139935\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"724\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10139935\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_.jpg 500w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_-400x579.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_-207x300.jpg 207w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">One word, folks: layers.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch4>What to Wear\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Clothes-wise, a music festival is like snow skiing — you’re gonna have to set aside delusions of fashion for optimal functionality. Don’t try to wind up on a “15 Sexiest Outfits from Outside Lands (NSFW)” clickbait list. Realize that the fog rolls in. Remember that you will get dusty. Be prepared to walk between stages, logging multiple miles each day. There’s no shame in looking like a Kirkland model from the Costco catalog if it’ll keep you comfortable. Rock those lame-looking tennis shoes, man. Put on an A’s hat. And yes: wear sunscreen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Important: In 2018, the festival began a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/clear-bag/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">very restrictive bag policy\u003c/a>. Similar to the NFL’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.xojane.com/sports/the-nfls-new-bag-policy-is-just-plain-stupid\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">widely criticized\u003c/a> bag policy, it requires you to bring a clear, transparent bag in place of a purse, backpack or messenger bag. Read up on it \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/clear-bag/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here\u003c/a>, and be prepared. (I don’t know where the hell to buy a clear backpack, sorry.)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Where to Watch\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>The best vantage point at each stage varies depending on your taste, but here’s what I recommend. At the large \u003cstrong>Lands End\u003c/strong> stage at the Polo Field, walk along the food booths on the south side all the way to the left side of the stage. The north side is clogged with the VIP area, and so sidling southward can get you close, with some nice breathing room. At the \u003cstrong>Twin Peaks\u003c/strong> stage over in Hellman Hollow, crush past the logjam near the bathrooms and head up the incline to the left of the stage; there’s often a sea of blankets, but finding a place to stand isn’t hard. The \u003cstrong>Panhandle\u003c/strong> stage area gets downright claustrophobic for more popular bands, but if you walk along the eco-themed booths on the left of the stage, you can get right up front. (If you’re sneaky, you can even walk \u003cem>behind\u003c/em> the booths, but I didn’t tell you so.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By far the most frustrating stage is the \u003cstrong>Sutro\u003c/strong> stage. Because the ground at Lindley Meadow takes a sharp dip in front of the stage, if you’re not down in the “bowl” at the front, it’s very hard to see the performer. You can angle for a spot on the crowded hill to the right of the stage, but I recommend snaking around the disabled seating platform to the left of the stage. Be persistent, and once you’re on the other side, you’ll find plenty of room, shade, a nice incline and even some picnic tables. You’ll also be close to the band.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139936\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_.jpg\" alt=\"Arcade Fire\" width=\"500\" height=\"748\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10139936\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_.jpg 500w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_-400x598.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Win Butler of Arcade Fire at Outside Lands in 2011. \u003ccite>(Gabe Meline)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch4>What to Eat\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Outside Lands has such an \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/taste/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">excellent variety of cuisine\u003c/a> that it’s easy to forget you can bring in your own food. But if you’re not going to pack deli sandwiches with fruits and vegetables in a backpack, then remember to bring money, because foodie delights like banh mi, huaraches, empanadas, pork belly, porcini donuts, arepas and fried egg sandwiches don’t exactly come cheap. (Over near the Sutro stage, there’s usually more common festival fare like Philly cheesesteak and chicken sandwiches.) The Choco-Lands area is where you’ll find your sugar fix. Remember that lines for pour-over coffee and wood-fired pizza will move very, very slowly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve said it a hundred times: all outdoor festivals should supply free water. Outside Lands is \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/eco-lands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">finally doing so\u003c/a>, after years of charging you to fill up your own reusable water bottle, or charging for a commemorative water bottle that comes with free refills. Water fountains are virtually nonexistent (there’s one near the fenced-off bathrooms adjacent to the Twin Peaks stage), and ground spigots, last I checked, are turned off. Thank goodness, then, for \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockmed.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rock Medicine\u003c/a>, which always keeps a water cooler and paper cups on hand for thirsty festival-goers. Their booth is usually between the Panhandle Stage and the Polo Fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for alcohol, there’s plenty of \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/wine-lands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fine wine\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/beer-lands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">craft beer\u003c/a> on offer. Or you can always do what some locals do: \u003ca href=\"http://instagram.com/p/qsEnhbvUOa/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bury bottles of liquor in Golden Gate Park\u003c/a> a week before the festival and dig it up later after you’ve slid past security.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Besides the Bands\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Make sure to walk through McLaren Pass, a forest-like path where all manner of weird clowns and marching bands seem to show up. (This is also where \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVRpRxRJg9E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jack White once played an unannounced set\u003c/a>.) Do definitely inhale aerosol art at the triangular graffiti wall. Avoid any and all marketers handing you glossy handbills for a cheaper phone plan or a new social network. Be wary of special events in corporate tents draped with logos of credit card companies. Do not, I repeat \u003cem>do not\u003c/em>, agree to see any “intimate show” that requires you to “like” a company on Facebook to get in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Certainly, gawk at the slow-moving line for the Buckminster Fuller-esque DJ tent, which is always filled with colorfully dressed people hoping their MDMA high lasts until they can get inside. Also try to find time for the Barbary Coast comedy tent — the old-style wooden décor is beautiful inside, and if nothing else, you’ll be able to sit for a while. (More popular comedy acts are accessed via a Fastpass-style situation with the line; be sure to check in well ahead of time to get a reservation.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139939\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 628px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10139939 size-full\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435.jpg\" alt=\"Deadmau5 Mask\" width=\"628\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435.jpg 628w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435-400x266.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Don’t be that guy.

Chances are you’ll be happiest if you float around freely. Go ahead and ditch out on a living legend and see a smaller local rapper instead. If your favorite indie band starts putting you to sleep this weekend, go see whatever weird jazz performance is happening in the forest. Or heck, go check out someone you’ve never heard of. After all, at their best, music festivals are all about discovery. Come with an open mind, and leave with a well-rounded sense of what’s happening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And… congratulations!

But even if, like me, you’re not exactly a spring chicken anymore, there are ways to spend three days in Golden Gate Park this weekend, see great performers, and get out of there alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take it from someone who’s been at Outside Lands every year since its inception. Here’s what I’ve learned in the last decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Getting There\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>There’s only been a couple years I actually parked in the neighborhood, and even then, it was an eight-block, hilly walk to the park. One year I fought the crowds on MUNI, waiting in a huge throng to squeeze onto a packed bus. Neither were ideal. And Uber’s \u003ca href=\"https://archives.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2014/08/11/uber-charges-up-to-290-per-ride-at-outside-lands\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“surge pricing” for the festival\u003c/a> is insane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Easily the best way to get to Outside Lands is to take that clunky old 10-speed, throw it in your trunk with a bungee cord, park for free near Ocean Beach and \u003cstrong>ride your bike in\u003c/strong>. This way you can pick up any provisions you’ve forgotten (and cheap sandwiches!) at the supermarket \u003cem>and\u003c/em> say hi to \u003ca href=\"http://openplac.es/trips/bison-in-golden-gate-park-san-francisco\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the buffalo\u003c/a> along the way. And at the end of the long day, it’s a downhill ride all the way to your car, with no traffic getting out. Easy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139935\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"724\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10139935\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_.jpg 500w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_-400x579.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Wear_-207x300.jpg 207w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">One word, folks: layers.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch4>What to Wear\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Clothes-wise, a music festival is like snow skiing — you’re gonna have to set aside delusions of fashion for optimal functionality. Don’t try to wind up on a “15 Sexiest Outfits from Outside Lands (NSFW)” clickbait list. Realize that the fog rolls in. Remember that you will get dusty. Be prepared to walk between stages, logging multiple miles each day. There’s no shame in looking like a Kirkland model from the Costco catalog if it’ll keep you comfortable. Rock those lame-looking tennis shoes, man. Put on an A’s hat. And yes: wear sunscreen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Similar to the NFL’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.xojane.com/sports/the-nfls-new-bag-policy-is-just-plain-stupid\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">widely criticized\u003c/a> bag policy, it requires you to bring a clear, transparent bag in place of a purse, backpack or messenger bag. Read up on it \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/clear-bag/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here\u003c/a>, and be prepared. (I don’t know where the hell to buy a clear backpack, sorry.)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Where to Watch\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>The best vantage point at each stage varies depending on your taste, but here’s what I recommend. At the large \u003cstrong>Lands End\u003c/strong> stage at the Polo Field, walk along the food booths on the south side all the way to the left side of the stage. The north side is clogged with the VIP area, and so sidling southward can get you close, with some nice breathing room. At the \u003cstrong>Twin Peaks\u003c/strong> stage over in Hellman Hollow, crush past the logjam near the bathrooms and head up the incline to the left of the stage; there’s often a sea of blankets, but finding a place to stand isn’t hard. The \u003cstrong>Panhandle\u003c/strong> stage area gets downright claustrophobic for more popular bands, but if you walk along the eco-themed booths on the left of the stage, you can get right up front. (If you’re sneaky, you can even walk \u003cem>behind\u003c/em> the booths, but I didn’t tell you so.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By far the most frustrating stage is the \u003cstrong>Sutro\u003c/strong> stage. Because the ground at Lindley Meadow takes a sharp dip in front of the stage, if you’re not down in the “bowl” at the front, it’s very hard to see the performer. You can angle for a spot on the crowded hill to the right of the stage, but I recommend snaking around the disabled seating platform to the left of the stage. Be persistent, and once you’re on the other side, you’ll find plenty of room, shade, a nice incline and even some picnic tables. You’ll also be close to the band.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139936\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_.jpg\" alt=\"Arcade Fire\" width=\"500\" height=\"748\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10139936\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_.jpg 500w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_-400x598.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/OL.Eat_-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Win Butler of Arcade Fire at Outside Lands in 2011. \u003ccite>(Gabe Meline)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch4>What to Eat\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Outside Lands has such an \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/taste/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">excellent variety of cuisine\u003c/a> that it’s easy to forget you can bring in your own food. But if you’re not going to pack deli sandwiches with fruits and vegetables in a backpack, then remember to bring money, because foodie delights like banh mi, huaraches, empanadas, pork belly, porcini donuts, arepas and fried egg sandwiches don’t exactly come cheap. (Over near the Sutro stage, there’s usually more common festival fare like Philly cheesesteak and chicken sandwiches.) The Choco-Lands area is where you’ll find your sugar fix. Remember that lines for pour-over coffee and wood-fired pizza will move very, very slowly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve said it a hundred times: all outdoor festivals should supply free water. Outside Lands is \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/eco-lands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">finally doing so\u003c/a>, after years of charging you to fill up your own reusable water bottle, or charging for a commemorative water bottle that comes with free refills. Water fountains are virtually nonexistent (there’s one near the fenced-off bathrooms adjacent to the Twin Peaks stage), and ground spigots, last I checked, are turned off. Thank goodness, then, for \u003ca href=\"http://www.rockmed.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rock Medicine\u003c/a>, which always keeps a water cooler and paper cups on hand for thirsty festival-goers. Their booth is usually between the Panhandle Stage and the Polo Fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for alcohol, there’s plenty of \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/wine-lands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fine wine\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfoutsidelands.com/beer-lands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">craft beer\u003c/a> on offer. Or you can always do what some locals do: \u003ca href=\"http://instagram.com/p/qsEnhbvUOa/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bury bottles of liquor in Golden Gate Park\u003c/a> a week before the festival and dig it up later after you’ve slid past security.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Besides the Bands\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Make sure to walk through McLaren Pass, a forest-like path where all manner of weird clowns and marching bands seem to show up. (This is also where \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVRpRxRJg9E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jack White once played an unannounced set\u003c/a>.) Do definitely inhale aerosol art at the triangular graffiti wall. Avoid any and all marketers handing you glossy handbills for a cheaper phone plan or a new social network. Be wary of special events in corporate tents draped with logos of credit card companies. Do not, I repeat \u003cem>do not\u003c/em>, agree to see any “intimate show” that requires you to “like” a company on Facebook to get in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Certainly, gawk at the slow-moving line for the Buckminster Fuller-esque DJ tent, which is always filled with colorfully dressed people hoping their MDMA high lasts until they can get inside. Also try to find time for the Barbary Coast comedy tent — the old-style wooden décor is beautiful inside, and if nothing else, you’ll be able to sit for a while. (More popular comedy acts are accessed via a Fastpass-style situation with the line; be sure to check in well ahead of time to get a reservation.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139939\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 628px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10139939 size-full\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435.jpg\" alt=\"Deadmau5 Mask\" width=\"628\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435.jpg 628w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435-400x266.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/08/IMG_8435-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Don’t be that guy.

"content": "\u003cp>One part electronic and one part rock, Francisco y Madero brings together Mexican and American perspectives to make culturally distinct music. San Francisco-based Jess Sylvester, 31 and Guadalajara-based Carlos Pesina, 27 usually send music back and fourth using Dropbox, and eventually post finished tracks and EPs onto \u003ca href=\"http://franciscoymadero.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">their Bandcamp site\u003c/a>. The duo kicked off a two-week West Coast tour last Tuesday, July 22 at Blackbird Tavern in San Jose with Guadalajara-based band Dorotheo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Francisco y Madero formed nearly four years ago when Sylvester, who is a Spanish major at San Francisco State, was preparing to study in Guadalajara, Mexico. He reached out to a few musicians over Myspace and Pesina, a computer engineering student and part-time musician, happened to respond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At that time, Pesina was working on another project called “Los Amparito.” He was pretty well known in Mexico’s alternative music scene. “I collaborated with a lot of people from different places and one of those was Jess,” He says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pesina became Sylvester’s guide in Guadalajara, showing him around the city and introducing him to new people. The two started collaborating more frequently and messing around with different samples, “We kind of had this affinity for like ’60s music together, and in two days we recorded and just made a bunch of demos and from that spawned our first few EPs,” Sylvester recalls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 150px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1478107203/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Francisco y Madero’s music can be described in a few different ways, says Sylvester. “I’ve heard people say taking acid in the Caribbean — or in the 1960s, or something to that effect, which is funny. I tell people that it’s like the idea of ’60s music, in a sense, sort of like this nostalgia.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The duo’s latest tracks are slightly different than the stuff they have put out thus far, but the band’s Latin-American perspective remains, with samples of bossa nova and cumbia. Lately, they’ve been having some fun experimenting with cumbia rebajada, a pitched down version of the popular dance music, which they say sounds ghostly and dark. When paired with Sylvester’s vocals, their sound becomes a strange blend of pop and sci-fi. “Its like sugar gum pop on one hand, but at the same time it leaves you with this feeling of like, what was that? You know, that discomfort,” says Sylvester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/BKaZpiM_YzA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similar to their music, the band name has tongue-in-cheek undertones. Francisco y Madero is a play off of former Mexican president Francisco I. Madero’s name. Pesina spotted an image on Tumblr, with the words Francisco y Madero drawn out like two lovers inside a heart. Pesina says it’s like a joke about identity, which in his opinion is always fake. The duo has given up on searching for cultural authenticity (of the Mexican or American identities) in their music. The thought behind the identity of the band captures the spirit of Sylvester’s first trip to Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sylvester is half Mexican, half Irish. Part of his goal while studying abroad in Mexico was to form a connection with his mother’s family living in Jalisco. For him, observing and experiencing his extended family in Mexico opened him up and inspired him personally and creatively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I like having the perspective of having friends and family from Mexico, but it doesn’t make me Mexican. And being very fair-skinned makes me not really Mexican either here, you know?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Jess met Carlos, he stuck to playing mostly rock music. But now he finds himself making more Latin sounding and even electronic music. Carlos has also started playing traditional Mexican music like son jarocho, adding guitars to his usual computer-only musical style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/155667403″ params=”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Francisco y Madero’s music demonstrates how people of different backgrounds are coming together — even over long distances — in a creative capacity to work on projects of mixed origin, inspired by travel, culture, and even humor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was really lucky,” Sylvester says. “I’ve been in bands for a long time. It’s hard to find people to play music with… It’s like a relationship. You don’t just find your girlfriend or boyfriend and pick them off a tree. It’s not easy. It’s hard to find bands or artists to work with in that regard as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The band’s goal, for now, is to continue making fun, accessible music that people can enjoy. In the meantime, both Pesina and Sylvester still need to finish school.\u003c/p>\n\n",

You know, that discomfort,” says Sylvester.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/BKaZpiM_YzA'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/BKaZpiM_YzA'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Similar to their music, the band name has tongue-in-cheek undertones. Francisco y Madero is a play off of former Mexican president Francisco I. Madero’s name. Pesina spotted an image on Tumblr, with the words Francisco y Madero drawn out like two lovers inside a heart. Pesina says it’s like a joke about identity, which in his opinion is always fake. The duo has given up on searching for cultural authenticity (of the Mexican or American identities) in their music. The thought behind the identity of the band captures the spirit of Sylvester’s first trip to Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sylvester is half Mexican, half Irish. Part of his goal while studying abroad in Mexico was to form a connection with his mother’s family living in Jalisco. For him, observing and experiencing his extended family in Mexico opened him up and inspired him personally and creatively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I like having the perspective of having friends and family from Mexico, but it doesn’t make me Mexican. And being very fair-skinned makes me not really Mexican either here, you know?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Jess met Carlos, he stuck to playing mostly rock music. But now he finds himself making more Latin sounding and even electronic music. Carlos has also started playing traditional Mexican music like son jarocho, adding guitars to his usual computer-only musical style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cdiv class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__shortcodes__shortcodeWrapper'>\n \u003ciframe width='”100%”' height='”166″'\n scrolling='no' frameborder='no'\n src='https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/155667403″&visual=true&”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false”'\n title='”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/155667403″'>\n \u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/div>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Francisco y Madero’s music demonstrates how people of different backgrounds are coming together — even over long distances — in a creative capacity to work on projects of mixed origin, inspired by travel, culture, and even humor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was really lucky,” Sylvester says. “I’ve been in bands for a long time. It’s hard to find people to play music with… It’s like a relationship. You don’t just find your girlfriend or boyfriend and pick them off a tree. It’s not easy. It’s hard to find bands or artists to work with in that regard as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The band’s goal, for now, is to continue making fun, accessible music that people can enjoy. In the meantime, both Pesina and Sylvester still need to finish school.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

You have to be a robot — you’re a machine to do that.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10139329\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 650px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/07/The-Purple-Ones-2.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10139329\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/07/The-Purple-Ones-2.jpg\" alt=\"The Purple Ones Onstage\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/07/The-Purple-Ones-2.jpg 650w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/07/The-Purple-Ones-2-400x266.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/07/The-Purple-Ones-2-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Purple Ones will try to capture the legendary performance magic of Prince this Saturday at Slim’s.
