SF's favorite left-of-the-dial radio station celebrates its 31st anniversary with this local triple bill. Wooden Shjips haven't played in town for a few months, though their molten garage rock is still earning raves after a series of singles and a self-titled LP on Holy Mountain. Bearing lipstick traces of the Doors, Terry Riley, the Velvet Underground, and Hawkwind, it's a record collector's dream come true. Citay's guitar duels are no less entrancing for being more pastoral than the Shjips' assault. Opener Jenny Hoyston also plays with avant-rockers Erase Errata and embodies that band's genre-bending intelligence in her solo work.
