My favorite spot in SF is Toronado pub near the corner of Haight and Fillmore. A real low key hole in the wall pub with an amazing selection of beer. Right next door is Rosamunde grill. Awesome grilled sausages!!! Every time I make the trip to SF when Gov't Mule is in town, those two places are where my friends and I gather for the preshow fun.....................Jesse

Check the Audium out!

- Check this place out: http://www.audium.org/
- Skip fishermans wharf at all costs!
- Go to the top of Twin peaks for the view
- Haight Ashbury is a great time, see Amoeba Music. While there check out Buena Vista park as well as the Golden Gate parK, especially the Arboretum, the Conservatory of Flowers, and the DeYoung Museum.
- Lombard Street is a trip, it never fails to make me laugh
- Guitar stores in my opinion are lame, I guess in order I would suggest Real Guitars and Rocker Guitars if you must.
- If you can, checkout the Sonoma and Russian River vineyards
- You MUST drive on PCH1

I thought Alcatraz was cool. Lots of unique American history there, and you can just sorta FEEL the desperation of what it must've been like to have been locked down there.
