Eye Saw You I saw you eyeing me eyeing you, and I tried not to concern myself that you had no choice but to give me the eye because of that patch. But, come on, you’re better than that. At least I would think a TSA agent should be better than that. This is national security. But somewhere, somehow, a recruiter was blinded by your sad one-eyed Willie routine and felt it perfectly acceptable to put you in the position to give me the willies as you looked me up and down and asked me what I had in my pockets. You knew damn well. Nothing.

CE CREAM flavors have long escaped the bonds of plain vanilla but there’s such a thing as going too far: double chocolate, overload brownie bite supreme. The ice cream at Tin Pot Creamery is produced in small batches in a selection of creative flavors. Before opening Tin Pot Creamery in 2013, Becky Sunseri served as pastry chef for Martin’s West Gastropub in Redwood City and on Facebook’s culinary team. Tin Pot uses Straus Creamery organic dairy products to make all of its ice creams. The small store that operates at Palo Alto’s Town & Country Village has a rustic, artisanal feel. A handwritten menu on a woodframed chalkboard and roughhewn wood furnishings throughout the store complement the homemade feel. Tin Pot serves attention-getting ingredient combinations along with familiar favorites. A scoop of comforting chocolate or mint chip can share cone space with palate-tweaking extravagances like crème fraîche, lavender with blueberry swirl or earl grey tea. Homemade toppings, like toasted graham crackers and shortbread cookies, as well as a delectable salted caramel sauce, can be added to any order. Forgoing traditional flavors on my first visit, I focused on the more unusual creations. Overall, my impression was that every flavor tastes about like what one would expect, but they’re still unexpectedly spoon-licking good. My favorite surprise was a single scoop of lavender with blueberry swirl ($3.50). An incredibly saturated taste of lavender greets you at first taste, then you find a sweet, fruity ribbon of blueberry. Adding toasted graham crackers made for a lovely marriage of flavors. To some, the lavender may be overpoweringly floral, but I enjoyed it enough to bring home a pint ($10-$11) for future indulgences. The sweet cream with honey balsamic swirl is dominated by the rich, simple, sweet cream flavor, but gets a tart twist from the balsamic. Tasty, but I didn’t need to enjoy more than a sample. On a second visit I ordered one of Tin Pot’s sundae creations, the salted caramel pecan sundae ($7.75) and it was delicious. I also sampled the birthday cake flavor, which, as the name promises, tasted exactly like an ice cream birthday cake, floury texture included. With so many inviting flavors, it can be difficult to decide what to order. But there’ll be plenty of time to ponder the choices while waiting in line. Though the line doesn’t wrap around the block, clearly many patrons want to make a more informed decision and hold up the line while sampling up to three flavors.—Jeff Cianci TIN POT CREAMERY 855 El Camino Real #121, Palo Alto. 650.327.1715 tinpotcreamery.com

HILE RESTAURANTS, bars, brewpubs and beer gardens around the valley host tap takeovers during Silicon Valley Beer Week, one local brewery is teaming with a local artisans' fair to take over a movie theater.
Hermitage Brewing Company has partnered with San Jose Made (SJMADE) and Camera 12 Cinemas to present the CineBrew Mart, taking place July 26 during Silicon Valley Beer Week. The event is the brainchild of SJMADE founder Marie Millares and grew from brainstorming sessions on what to do with the third floor theater space with Camera 12’s Alex Adams. “Alex had a ton of great ideas,” Millares says. “I remember thinking that having a local brewery on the third floor would be a great concept to explore.” After running into Carolyn Hopkins-Vasquez, director of marketing for Hermitage and Tied House Brewing, at the annual Meet the Brewers festival held earlier this year, their ideas were set in motion. About 10 movies will screen throughout the day and a beer tasting will take place at the second- and third-floor concession stands from 1–4pm. Local artists and craftspeople at CineBrew Mart will set up shop on Paseo de San Antonio as well as the first-floor lobby of Camera 12, with their booths open to the public, 11am–7pm. Among the SJMADE vendors are local artisan food purveyors who will sell movie snacks to pair with the beer tastings, such as gourmet brittle, popcorn, cotton candy, baked goods, caramels and biscotti. Treatbot will also create special beer-flavored ice creams for the event that will feature Hermitage Brewing’s Ale of the 2Tun Imperial Stout and Mosaic Single Hop IPA. Hopkins-Vasquez has signed up local breweries from the Bay Brewers Guild to participate, which in addition to Hermitage, include Tied House, Strike Brewing, Santa Clara Valley Brewing, Campbell Brewing, Faultline, Gordon Biersch, Uncommon Brewers and Santa Cruz Ale Works. —Andy Lee THE CINEBREW MART July 26, 11am-11pm.

Musical Theater WHETHER THEY’RE PLAYING blues-heavy beats, retro soul or German Umpapa, local musicians have been making Tuesday nights at San Pedro Square loud. Bands and musicians of widely varying style and genre TOSPS Tuesdays have been performing at the The Theater on San Pedro Square every Tuesday, taking part in the new music series, Most Tuesdays presented by Tabard Theatre Company. The event, dubbed The Tabard Theatre TOSPS Tuesdays, has been a success, averaging about 100 Company; Free attendees each week, according to producer Nick Nichols. tabardtheatre.org The assortment of bands runs the gamut and each week brings a different energy to the theater. Nichols notes there are even a few performers who are “big wigs in high tech and business” by day and “by night they come out and are incredible horn players and soul singers.” But no matter what, there is usually dancing. With a cash bar opened behind red curtains and upgraded amplifiers blasting live sound, most of the audience find themselves grooving to the music. Whether they’re kids attending with their families or people in their 70s, it’s always “party-like,” says Nichols. “It’s a very festive and fun thing.” Since the series debuted in March, more than 20 bands have played—all local, all free. Musicians sign up to perform on a first-come, first-served basis and collect revenue in a tip jar and through merchandise sales. After the show finishes at 10pm the performers often step down from the stage and mingle with the audience. Last week, TOSPS Tuesdays featured Jake Nielsen—a blues guitarist with cerebral palsy who attracted attention for using his crutches to manipulate the sound pedals. He even wielded them to perform glissando, a technique of rapidly sliding down a series of notes. The audience was dazzled by his performance that, as Nichols puts it, “was an inspiration on so many levels.” “It was definitely one of the best indoor venues I've played in my career,” Nielsen says. “The crowd was awesome.” In addition, Tabard’s partner in the music series, Silicon Valley Blues Society, hosts a competition between three bands at the first TOSPS Tuesday of every month. At the end of the year a top band and a runner up will be named and awarded prizes, including gigs at San Jose events and studio time at Tiki Recording Studios. “It’s probably my favorite venue,” Marianne Adoradio, treasurer of the Silicon Valley Blues Society, says of the theater. “It’s intimate. People feel they’re part of the music. They feel there with the musician … you’re almost in another world.” There is “no end date in mind” for TOSPS Tuesdays, Nichols says. The series is currently booked until around the end of the year, but organizers want to continue as long as possible. Nichols said the concerts have attracted people to his venue and delivered the company’s mission of providing an inclusive place for the community. “I’m thrilled,” Nichols says. “I’m just thrilled. It’s doing everything we hoped it would do and more.”—Alice Yin

CONCERT
Creative Convergence SILICON VALLEY IS ABOUT much more than ones and zeros. It’s a thriving cultural center, teeming with artists and thinkers, and this September, at the C2SV festival, some of the biggest names in technology, music and art are set to converge on San Jose’s SoFA arts district to discuss the big ideas, share their creative vision and inspire innovation. The festival’s speakers have yet to be named, but some of the musical acts performing at C2SV (Creative Convergence Silicon Valley), have been announced. The lineup includes the seminal alternative rock band, The Breeders, along with many more local and national artists.
The Breeders, $25 (early purchase) Single tickets, more info at c2sv.com
The Breeders, currently reunited under the same lineup that produced the critically acclaimed Last Splash and its infectious lead single, “Cannonball,” will headline the festival’s main stage on Sept. 13. The festival will also feature San Francisco psych rock wizard Kelley Stoltz, the hazy sounds of L.A. quartet Gateway Drugs, and the punky surf-rock of The Neptunas. Last year, the inaugural C2SV technology conference and music festival brought some of the world’s breakthrough thinkers and musicians to downtown San Jose. While technologists like Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, tech evangelist and blogger Robert Scoble, and the firebrand antivirus and encryption pioneer John McAfee held down the tech conference, a litany of well regarded artists—including San Jose electro kings The Limousines, hardcore punk legends OFF!, San Francisco fuzzy fiends Thee Oh Sees, and the godfather of punk himself, Iggy Pop, with his original band, The Stooges—rocked a series of evening concerts. This year, the second annual C2SV will again bring Silicon Valley’s technology leaders and great music to various venues in the SoFA district. Many more speakers, vendors and artists will be announced in the weeks leading up to the festival.—Nick Veronin

‘THE REAL DEAL’ Renowned blues harmonica player Rick Estrin and his band, The Nightcats, will play at Redwood City’s upcoming blues festival
This Cat’s Got Harp
GROWING UP in San Francisco with a "beatnik" for a sister, it didn't take long for Rick Estrin to be introduced to the blues. "When I was 11 years old she started showing me some of her blues records,� Estrin recalls. “I was instantly fascinated.�
Champion Jack Dupree's ďŹ rst album, Blues from the Gutter, especially impressed the young Estrin. For his twelfth birthday, he received a copy of Ray Charles' The Genius Sings the Blues, a record that inspired him to learn how to play the harmonica. Estrin formed the electric blues/swing revival combo Little Charlie and the Nightcats with Charles Baty in 1976. In the years since, the Rick Estrin and group has released nine albums and a live collection, and the Nightcats have toured the world. Baty retired from music in 2008, and Estrin has taken over as leader and will be fronting The July 26; 5pm Nightcats this Saturday when they headline Redwood City's Courthouse Square, PAL Blues, Arts and BBQ Festival. The Nightcats released Redwood City a live record earlier this month called You Asked For It...Live!, redwoodcity recorded at the Biscuits and Blues nightclub in San Francisco. pal.com/blues It's the band's ďŹ rst live record since Baty's retirement. The group still plays songs from Little Charlie and the Nightcats' catalog, alongside newer songs from the band's two newer studio albums. "Earlier on, Charlie and I would write songs together to compliment his swing-inspired playing style, but now everyone gets involved," Estrin says, explaining that the different blues backgrounds of his bandmates help make a stronger, more democratic songwriting process. Recently, Estrin's harp playing earned him critical accolades. The Blues Foundation granted him a Blues Music Award for his harmonica playing in 2013, and he and the Nightcats share four other nominations for Blues Music Awards in the past four years. The Blues, Arts and BBQ Festival is a free event beneďŹ tting the city's Police Activity League. Estrin joins six other acts on Saturday, including Bay Area artists the Aki Kumar Blues Band and Danny Caron's Good Hands Organ Trio. Southern California set Rod Piazza and the Mighty Flyers play on Friday evening. In addition to the music, Rack and Roll Barbecue will be serving food, and Matagrano Distributors will provide a lineup of craft beers. The Blues, Arts and BBQ Festival takes place Friday, July 25 from 6-8 pm, and resumes the following afternoon from 11am to 6pm. The event is part of Redwood City's "Art on the Square" series of summertime events, which put a spotlight on downtown Redwood City. The Nightcats are looking forward to playing a show in the Bay Area, an opportunity they do not often have due to constant touring. "We only get to play in Northern California 3 or 4 times a year," Estrin says. "The rest of the year, we're touring." Estrin also loves the festival's lineup. "A lot of blues festivals feature bands that are really just hard rock. But all the bands playing here are blues. They're the real deal."—Jonathan Davis
