One of the greatest venues in San Francisco. A must if you're visiting. See the giant poster room, grab a free apple, and grab a poster on the way out if the show sells out. Always a treat.
This is one of the few great music venues left in the city. So much history! If you love music, this place belongs on your bucket list, especially if you have seen a favorite band here. ( ; - )
Most legendary music venue in SF. Great sound, not overly crowded even when sold out. Go early and check out the posters from all of the shows over the years in the bar room upstairs.
The Grateful Dead. James Brown. Jefferson Airplane. Prince. The Cure. The Smashing Pumpkins. Radiohead. They have all graced this stage along with hundreds of other performers great and unknown. Leia mais

So close to Japan town you should really grab a bite there, so much food within walking distance and easy to get to and from via public transport. Make sure you grab an apple on your way in…and out.
How could one not love the Fillmore? It's like the Vatican of West coast rock, soul, and blues. Every act I've seen there is reinvigorated by the soul of the venue.
Love The Fillmore it's legendary...last person I saw there was Karl Denson, it is one of my fave places to hear music, I have seen Prince, George Clinton and many more play there, it is special.
ladies: bring an extra hair tie - if your show's sold out, you can use it to get that free poster home safe! fellas: i dunno... make sure you grab an apple or something.
To get a poster you have to stay until the show is over. Make sure you grab one. Also take time to get to the venue early so you can views all the old posters upstairs. Well worth your time!
Go to a concert that sells out a few days in advance and you usually get a free poster on your way out. Plus, take a look at the posters and realize how many musical gods have graced the auditorium...
The greeter's name is Tim (the guy in the cowboy attire). Sometimes the apple barrel is removed at the band's request. Free posters are handed out to concertgoers after *most* sold out shows.
The jerk roaming around the entrance near the box office will do everything possible to antagonize and ruin your night before you even get inside. Total disgrace to such a historic music venue.
I have seen so many shows here that I don't even know where to begin. Just come here if you can. I always have a great time (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Leia mais
Been here plenty of times. Line starts where the Post Office doors are. 38 MUNI stops in front of the Post Office as well. At the end of some shows, they give you a free poster which is awesome :)
When The Fillmore re-opened on April 27, 1994, it was The Smashing Pumpkins playing an unannounced surprise show that filled the venue with music once again.
