RIP

Shigemi "Shig" Komiyama, the owner and rock 'n roll enthusiast behind the Inner Richmond's charming Halu, sadly passed away in late January after a long illness, and the community will be celebrating his life on Sunday with a service at the San Francisco Culture Center SGI. Komiyama, a longtime drummer for the Shitones, opened Halu in 2008 with his wife, daughters, and a lifetime's worth of cool Beatles and Hendrix memorabilia; it remains open. [Inside Scoop]
