San Francisco: Pussy Riot Benefit + Frightwig Interview

Well, here’s some exciting news, folks.

This Wednesday, January 30th at 7pm, City Lights and the Feminist Press will be co-presenting a tribute to Pussy Riot, featuring performances and readings from (holy shit) Frightwig, Penelope Houston (Avengers), Debora Iyall (Romeo Void) and Michelle Tea (Sister Spit).

I personally can’t imagine a more awesome roster of people for a more awesome cause. I will most certainly be there.

ON TOP OF THAT, on Saturday (aka tomorrow) from 10-midnight, you can listen to my interview with Mia d’Bruzzi and Deanna Mitchell, founding members of Frightwig, on Ribbon Around a Bomb Radio at Radio Valencia. In fact, it will be a whole female-fronted SF-punk themed show, where you’ll hear not only hella Frightwig, but also Mary Monday, the Avengers, the Nuns, Noh Mercy, and more. I will of course post the podcast here when it’s done.

      Hey, unfortunately there is no flier for the event! Just a description on City Lights bookstore’s website. This image above is taken from the new book about Pussy Riot though. 🙂

    Will we be posting the Frightwig interview show as a podcast anytime soon, perhaps?
