The Fox ruined the SF music scene, but The Fillmore is still going strong.
IFCJuly 6, 2010SF: Be sure to grab a free apple and free concert poster at SF's most historic (and hospitable) live music venue. -IFC Staff
Lydia KMarch 2, 2016Watch out if you got your tickets emailed. Bouncers might lie about you needing to stand in line, and be super rude when you're angry about having to stand at the back of the line again.
Michelle LongOctober 8, 2014At the Fillmore to see Lake Street Dive, who were on stage this past weekend at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass!!!
Shop at Safeway and leave obvious Safeway bags in your car so it doesn't get towed.
ChaunceyCCMay 12, 2011The bar is cash only (or was last night anyways) so be sure and bring some loot or you'll be forced to wait in the mile long ATM line.
VH1July 22, 2010Visit the Poster Room upstairs for a visual history lesson of artists who have played The Fillmore. – Team Live Nation
Charles MagnusonAugust 18, 2014Don't bring your pocket knife or reusable water bottle. They won't let you in with the knife and your water bottle has to wait out front. #Lame
Thriving IvoryApril 30, 2009An awesome historic venue we're about to headline for the 1st time. It has beautiful chandeliers & band posters from over the years. We're excited to play for our home crowd!
Go and catch a sold out show. Say "hi" to the greeter, grab a fresh apple, and receive your free limited edition poster on the way out.

Erin LeonardNovember 4, 2009Go to The Fillmore and see a great show. Make sure to bring some $ for beer, a cocktail, or some bar food upstairs!
They give out the free concert posters at sold out shows
Deborah NietersMay 22, 2012Fat Angel around the corner is a nice place to grab a bite before the show.
The DoorsMarch 10, 2011The Doors played the Fillmore three consecutive nights in 1967 with Sopwith Candle and Young Rascals opening.

Ask for a large beer. It won't save you any $$, but it will save you trips to the bar.
THE CHIC SPYNovember 18, 2011Went to the red carpet event for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn. It is a fabulous venue! Red carpet was in the ballroom. Read more
Bad bathroom for pooping. Make sure to do your business before you leave for the show.
The staff had an absurd dedication to keeping the bar and walkways clear. You WILL break their rules without know it. Prepare to be hustled rudely out of the way.
