I'm reposting this for some DJ friends. I know it's last minute, but this is an important event, and I hope I can get in with a (very) expired ID, as muggers have all my current ones. Anyone near SF should come, it's going to be a rare experience:
March 10th 2008 marked the 49th anniversary of the Tibetan National Uprising. Tens of thousands of Tibetans rose up against China's illegal invasion and occupation of their country. Despite China's best attempts to destroy the Tibetan spirit, Tibetan resistance has continued for nearly half a century inside Tibet and in exile communities worldwide. With all eyes focused on the Olympics in China, Tibetans and supporters worldwide are protesting the Chinese government's use of the Olympics as a political tool to legitimize its illegal occupation of Tibet.
On April 9, 2008, this very Olympic Torch will pass through San Francisco. This is the ONLY stop in North America. Help us draw attention to the worsening human rights situation inside Tibet. Help us use the Olympics spotlight to shame and embarrass the Chinese government and show them that until Tibet is free, China will never be never be accepted as a leader on the world stage.
Join Cyphertown and Giveback this Sunday to stand in solidarity with Tibetans and help raise funding for the March to Tibet, a non-violent campaign to bring Tibetans exiled in India back to their homeland. March to Tibet will include international DJ's and music, activist speeches and visuals of the Tibetan resistance at the infamous 1015 Folsom.
The Tibetan People's Uprising Movement is a global movement of Tibetans, inside and outside of Tibet, that is engaging in direct action to end China's illegal and brutal occupation of Tibet. Through unified and strategic campaigns, the Movement seeks to seize the Olympic spotlight and shine it on China's shameful repression inside Tibet, thereby denying China the international acceptance and approval it so fervently desires.

I hope that you guys were able to send a message to the Olympic Committee and China itself w/ the protest. I hope it makes national news. The more people know about what's going on...especially this year w/ the Olympics being hosted there, the better off Tibet is.
