On May 21st 2021 RINSED.SF held its first show at the dark and sweaty Toy Soldier. It’s red curtains and low light were the perfect setting for an underground rave near the tail-end of the pandemic.

On May 21st 2022 we celebrated our 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY in another fabled red room. You may know it for taco Tuesday and playoff football, but Nick’s Crispy Tacos was once a legendary bar and club. Previously owned by the same proprietor of Toy Soldier, Johnny Love (a hilarious coincidence), this club was a place of excess and debauchery of the highest order. We were excited to restore this space to its glorious past for a day. Each member of Rinsed played a specially curated set for all to enjoy.
