California Highway 1 co-exists with the Interstate 101 over the Golden
Gate Bridge, while further South on the peninsula it coincides with a
small portion of the Interstate 280 and then 19th Avenue shortly after
Daly City. Between the bridge approaches on the Presidio and the
connection to 19th Avenue intersecting the Golden Gate Park, one of the
main roads crossing East / West is Geary Street. Driving from the
South, you can turn right onto Geary - but if you're coming South from
the North Bay you are not allowed to make a left - so cross over Geary
and turn right at the next intersection - then right twice more!.
Now you're travelling due East on Geary Street for a couple of miles and
when you see signs for Masonic you'd better slow down or you'll miss
your turn for the Boom Boom Room on Fillmore Street. Its on the
North West corner of Geary and Fillmore but if you spot any parking on
the side roads within a block or two - then grab it! Yes ~ that street
name is probably quite familiar to you, you're also very close to
"The Fillmore" and a major movie theatre. The Boom Boom
Room is a comfortable place with a great atmosphere for listening to The
Blues. |
