Thursday nights at Aunt Charlie's belong to Bus Station John and his weekly deep dive into rare vinyl — a carefully curated mix of old-school bathhouse disco, early New York downtown electro, and tracks so obscure you won't find them anywhere else. He's taking people who know down memory lane while introducing retro-homo classics to a younger generation. Show up for the grooves, stay for the underground crowd that makes this Tenderloin institution legendary.
