Follow the white rabbit to Zeitgeist on Tuesday (tomorrow!!) at around 9pm. We'll be searching the bar for more zine material and seeking your input!
Also, you never know what kind of white rabbit gear you might find lying around...

Yelpers Unite
Some Yelp reviews that are actually honest, potent, and in alignment with our goals of this here blog:
"Sure, I've shared a picnic table with a hipster or two, but I've also seen a man in a monkey suit, a giant walking banana and an entire biker gang. If you can't handle a little diversity, you might want to consider staying home."
"Zeitgeist is your quintessential dive bar. However, what makes it so cool is the clientele. You can literally find every conceivable group of people here, from hard core bikers with ZZ Top beards and confederate flag tattoos to effete hipsters (lots of them) and everything in between. The huge outdoor seating area is cool because, unlike most every other bar I have been to, it allows you to sit down and hang out with your friends without being crushed on all sides by a ton of people."
"I actually really dig this place. Unfortunately A LOT of spoiled brats who are expecting a typical bar come by and are very much disappointed. It's not the place to go if you want simpering staff that's ready to wipe your ass if you give them enough cash. These people deal with disgruntled drunks and don't take any shit. So if you're a Take No Shit type of person, and like REALISTIC un-consumer, Non-Brainwashed, cool people that don't walk around with that air of entitlement like most SF tourists and quite a few SF residents, this is the place for you. I'm from the East Bay, and Zeitgeist is a pretty good escape from the rest of the Outer Limits craziness that is San Francisco."

A Chronicle
So what we are looking to do here, is not only give out some tips of the trade, but to create a chronicle of the life and times of Zeitgeist. (Yes, starting a bit late, as its been around for 20-some years, but better late than never, right?)
We have been astounded, pleasantly surprised, startled and amazed again and again at the unique moment in time and space that is Zeitgeist. Though some find it difficult to stomach for one reason or another, we find it to be an extremely interesting bit of culture, and we would like to make a venue for all to share their experiences, that isn't about negative or positive ranking, but rather about coming together to make a better experience for everyone.
So whether this helps you feel better through commiseration after getting your ass kicked-out last night, aids you in picking up a chick next time, or settles the recurrent disputes about this bar... Cheers, and enjoy!
