In addition to being one of the first craft beer and wine bars in SF, Amnesia was also an award winning hub for a variety of music and performance communities in San Francisco's Mission District.
I started as a booker in 2003 and by 2009 I was a managing partner, having presented hundreds of events and putting this intimate venue on the world map.
Amnesia closed its doors in 2019, but will always be a bright red light in the world of SF music, culture, and good times.
