924 Gilman Street
\nBerkeley, CA 94701
\n(510) 525-9926
\n924gilman.org<\/a><\/p>\n

Description<\/strong>
\nThe 924 Gilman Street Project, commonly known as “924 Gilman” or “The Gilman,” this venue is just about as uncommon as you can get. In a good way, of course.<\/p>\n

The Gilman’s main focus is punk, but metal, ska, and other independent bands also make an appearance. It holds a sweet spot in music history, having helped give a start to uber-famous bands like the Foo Fighters, Green Day, the Offspring, and many, MANY more<\/a>\u00a0before they were huge.<\/p>\n

And then there is the ethics of the place. There are four rules at the club: no drugs, no alcohol, no violence, and no racism. Bands that produce racist,\u00a0misogynistic, or homophobic content are not welcome to perform, nor are bands signed to a major label. 924 Gilman is also completely volunteer run and hosted in a community space, where all ages are welcome.<\/p>\n

Even better yet: You can see a show for free by volunteering<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tip: Set the mood before a show by reading\u00a0924 Gilman: The Story So Far<\/a><\/em>. The excellent book may make you a bit of a nerd (we won’t tell) but it will also add a whole new dimension to your punk experience.<\/p>\n

Read about the other\u00a0great places to see a show in the Bay Area<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Directions<\/strong>
\nTake\u00a0BART<\/a>\u00a0(Richmond line)\u00a0to the North Berkeley Station. Walk north on Sacramento, make a left at the dead end and then a right onto Gilman. Follow that until you reach 8th and Gilman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
