"Angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night"
I've been thinking about following this beatnik tour of North Beach that I read about a few days ago, and I'm not just saying that because I'm wearing my Buddy Holly glasses today. Check out all of the cool spots Mike Marino recommends in A Beatnik tour through the North Beach of San Francisco, California! Even though several of the spots are closed down now or are home to different venues, I still think it would be a really cool self-guided tour.
