BrickBat Revue

We spend so much time at our computers, online, social media that sometimes we forget how wonderful it is to read/perform live.  To unplug, and be present.  With people.

Tuesday night was Mardi Gras.  The evening of 99% Guerrilla Literature at BrickBat Revue in the wonderful Brewery Art Colony.  What a cool space, cool place to read.  The Brewery Art Colony now provides loft housing to artists, but it was once the home of Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery.

Bronwyn Mauldin, a talented writer and founder of Guerrilla Reads, kicked the evening off with stellar footage from the Occupy LA Movement.  Robert Stuart Lowden's photographs are stunning and transports you there.  Mathew Timmons chorale work will change the way you read your junk mail forever.  Thank you, Tika, for inviting us into BrickBat Revue.

I's important to support your independent publishers, independent voices.   Support works that provoke, inspire, entertain, push, pull, stretch.  It's the only way we grow, change, evolve.

Laissez les bon temps roulez!
