Mondays from 8-10am, the Mission roastery/cafe's handing you no-questions-asked free French-pressed coffee (African, Indonesian, South American...) in a modest bid to say "FU recession". The joe-motion lasts until 4/20, at which point their recession stance becomes more of a recession recline-on-couch.

Hit the opulent Starlight Room for the first of many monthly parties featuring still more downturn drinks specials, e.g., a brown-bagged PBR plus a shot of chartreuse for $7, and the equally cheap Jack/Triple Sec/Red Bull "Stimulus" drink. Accompanying house music's spun by DJs Bells & Whistles, Cotk, and Limacon, who named himself for a heart-shaped geometric curve, not the popular gathering of Peruvian ex-pats.
