I like unique events that aren't stuffy and a little off the beaten path. I am interested in poetry readings, lectures, book signings, theater, art openings, experimental music, and other related events. I'm hoping to find a few like minded folks in the Bay Area who would like to attend these events on occasion with me! I am looking for cheap stuff to do so you won't find any opera or symphony events here (unless they're free!) So many artists out there, it's great to support your local art scen …
