The DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema In The Palm Of Your Hand!

The DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema In The Palm Of Your Hand!

Ever wondered what you’d see were you to catch up with us at an event where we had the DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema going? Well wonder no more!

We cordially invite you t click around, watch some bits, and find links to books in between. If you’ve seen a particularly moving bit that you’d like to share with someone — well, you can do that too! Just look for the SHARE THIS ONE button under each piece. Clicking that should copy a useful link that you can drop in a message or text or email…even if just to brag up the poem you read to all your family and friends!

As for the experience as a whole: hopefully it’s a quick and easy intro into the various multimedia projects that have often accompanied new book releases…part arts and crafts, part writing, some micro-fiction and even a little mischief. We hope you dig it!

The Yay...

The Yay...

And a fine time was had by most!

What a treat to read poems in one of the epicenters of American poetry, at Specs’ no less with Bill Taylor, Jr. and a few more of the city’s finest — and at one of the best bars in San Francisco. Pretty darn great.

And then to bum around the bay, from a San Leandro earthquake through sunburn at Alcatraz, fine meals at Scoma’s and R&G Lounge, caviar on the waterfront, tacos beside Lake Merritt, Waymos, SF MoMA, and cocktails on a cliffhouse patio while listening to tunes plunked out on a grand piano as the sun sets and a little bat friend flits by. Yep, I loves me some adventure!

If you’re anywhere nearby, pop on in for my first-ever Santa Fe area event!

There will be readings and typewriters and poetic fun from a couple of fellow poets — and of course I’m bringing the DrunkSkull Sidewalk Cinema to show off some project-specific multimedia and celebrates just a little of what I adore about the small press! I’ll also have copies of at least a few books — and I’m happy to scribble a little something in it if you’d like!

And the space itself is filled with local art of all kinds, with a particular focus on recycled artwork — inventive reconfigurations of things abandoned or ignored — made new and gorgeous once more! If you’re after something unique and one-of-a-kind, well you’d be hard-pressed to find a better spot to shop! Here’s to hoping you pop in for something a little different in the City Different!
