OFF-KILTER COMICS, TREEHOUSE B-DAY
yes, i know; when i said i was going to blog more, i lied. again. maybe i'm just not cut out for this blogging thing. anyway, here i am, and here's what's going on:
big, great COMIC SHOW at our very own Minneapolis College Of Art and Design (MCAD).
Ivan Brunetti (Schizo, one of the most singularly brutal/ human comics...ever, not to mention a New Yorker cover and a ton of other stuff...), John Hankiewicz (Kramer's Ergot, and the amazing ASTHMA collection), Lilli Carre (Tales Of Woodsman Pete), Dan Zettwoch (Kramer's Ergot, and his solo Red Bird series), Onsmith (show curator and author of many fine zines and other stuff) and yours truly (Sammy the Mouse, Recidivist, etc). original art, etc.
also, Onsmith, Brunetti, Hankiewicz and myself will be present for a gallery talk at the show opening at 6pm on april 4, and that same crew will be doing a signing from 3-5 pm the following day (saturday april 5th) at Big Brain Comics in downtown minneapolis.
i'd wager that all but the most obsessively comics- savvy of folks will find something you've never seen in this show that will more that float your respective cultural boat, whatever it might be.
so come on down if you live here.
ok, and then LATER TONIGHT, there's a big 7th birthday celebration for minneapolis' favorite record store, Treehouse records ( in Uptown); before it was Treehouse, it was Oarfolkjokeopus (seriously), and before that it was something else, but fact of the matter is that it's been there, and been a record store, for 40 YEARS. holy crap.
a buch of folks and bands are celebrating it tonight at the Turf Club in st. paul tonight (with a bunch of the proceeds going to a New Orleans relief fund).
here's the lineup:
MICHAEL YONKERS, PAUL METZGER, THE HYPSTRZ (with special guest BUZZ BARKER), VAMPIRE HANDS and CHOOGLIN'.
dj clint destijl will be working his dancefloor magic, as well.
