Noise Pop runs tonight (February 25) through March 2. Here's some tips to make the most of San Francisco's annual music festival, which takes place in various venues throughout the city:
• General badges are now sold out, but many individual shows still have tickets available. Browse the complete schedule here.
• Highlights of shows with tickets still available include the Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton Live Show (2/26 at The NWBLK), Social Studies with Aan, Farallons and Max and the Moon (2/27 at The New Parish), Mark Mulcahy with Mark Eitzel, Vikesh Kapoor and Whiskerman (2/27 at Brick and Mortar Music Hall) and Mikal Cronin with Blood Sister, Old Light and Vertical Scratchers (3/1 at The Chapel).
• If you still want to try and score a general badge, download the YPlan app for iPhone or Android. There, you'll have a shot at one or a waiting list for one.
• Noise Pop is still offering the Super Fan Badge ($350) that includes all the amenities of the regular badge plus merchandise, drink tickets, coupons for rideshare services and the concierge/assisting services of a rep from Noise Pop throughout the fest.
