It's all about living la vida LGBT in San Francisco this weekend as Pride takes over the city. Expect the parities, especially the two-day bash at Civic Center, to be bigger than ever following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to scuttle Prop. 8 and DOMA. SF Dyke March takes over Dolores Park before heading to the Castro and a Janet Jackson and Britney Spears Flash Mob is planned for Union Square. Uniqlo is giving away shaved ice for the warm weekend, and Deltron 3030 is back with new music at Stern Grove.
