Looking for something fun and completely different to do on a weekend afternoon? Then grab the kids and head on down to Pip Squeak A Go Go! The Devil-Ettes, San Francisco's premier 60s style go go dance group, are pleased to bring you a Go Go Dance party for the underage set.

This is a special Pip Squeak A Go Go because it is a BENEFIT for the Cure JM Foundation (www.curejm.org), a non-profit 501(c)3 organization which hopes to find a cure for Juvenile Myositis, an extremely rare autoimmune disease. In particular, this is a benefit in the name of Mielle Gonzalez, a 7-year-old Alamedan who was diagnosed with JM at the age of 5. Since then, she has endured treatment involving powerful drugs that come with major, horrible side effects, including terrible headaches and nausea, excessive weight gain, wild rages and mood swings. Her life now involves regular blood draws, intravenous drug treatments, and trips to a specialist in Chicago. Cure JM provides support to families like Mielle's, and funds research into better treatments and ultimately a CURE for this dreaded disease. You can read more about Mielle and her story here: www.mielle-jdm.blogspot.com

Featuring live music by The Time Outs! Uni and her Ukelele! Frances England!! Cowboy Jared! And The Devil-Ettes will dance throughout the day. Shop while you bop! Check out these fine vendors at Pip Squeak A Go Go: Jenni Cakes, Rock the Crib, Mama Cow, Beebalalou, Sita Rupa, The Damnation Army Store and Bonjour Teaspoon!

+ AWESOME TUNES! DJ Rockin' Raul will be spinning all afternoon long
+ RAFFLE PRIZES GALORE! Help raise money for CureJM and get something fun in return!
+ 60s GO-GO DANCE LESSONS! Learn how to do classic dances like the Monkey, the Swim, the Bug and more courtesy of The Devil-Ettes!
