Comment: Los Angeles's 1988 Gallery spins off a San Francisco subsidiary. Tonight marks the grand opening of this independent, small press, illustration oriented endeavor, the event garnering big support from APE artists and aficionados in town for the weekend (Alternative Press Expo-- happening at The Concourse). Business is brisk; you gotta wait to pay.

3131 Clement Street : Stereo Sound Agency's 15 Year Anniversary.

Artists: Chris Pastras, Jason Lee, Clint Peterson, Tobin Yelland, Chris Miller, Matt Irving, Sean Cassidy, Ian Johnson, Sage Vaughn, Yoon Sul, Isaac McKay Randozzi, Bryce Kanights, Christian Cooper, Todd Francis, Gabe Morford, more.

Comment: Founded right here in Ess Eff in 1992 by Jason Lee and Chris Pastras, Stereo Sound Agency celebrates 15 years of defining skateboard culture lifestyle. The fan base turns out in force to witness art, photography, decks, memorabilia, a video preview of "A Journey Through Sound," a sneak peek at the Stereo/Kangol Spring/Summer '07 hat line, and my personal favorite-- mungo kickass Q from the bar next door.

Addendum:
