You have it. There's a "scene" not really different from the SF scene that existed since the beat days (at least). The Valley is more square; this is more SF, some Marin, some down the coast to La Honda/Pescadero.

The person writing it up is just trying to make it seem a bit more exotic. "Underground"? My friends invite me to parties. People who aren't my friends don't. Does this make one of the set of parties "underground"?

Wow. People these days must be square and boring. Heck, I remember a coworker's birthday bash on a Half Moon Bay beach with turntables, booze and bonfire til 4 am and people trying to steal our rented generator. If that's "pushing boundaries," I want to know where to turn in my cool kids' card.
