It is killing me that I can’t be there for this event. So I’m hoping my New York friends and blog readers go for me, and tell me all about it.
It’s a Best Erotic Comics 2008 New York launch party and benefit for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund… in which performers will be re-enacting stories from the anthology.
Loki in heaven, I wish I could go.
New York’s funniest comedians will “act out” BEC stories by Colleen Coover (“A Bondage Tale”), Jessica Fink (“Cassie’s Bush”), Ellen Forney (“Your Handy Map to Erogenous Zones”), Justin Hall (“Birthday Fuck”), Ralf Konig (“Roy & Al: Sniffing Around”), Erica Erika Moen (“Silver Bullet”), and Dori Seda (“Fuck Story”). Listen, laugh, squirm, and get turned on as they treat you to a night of sex and comedy you won’t soon forget. Hosted by Rachael Parenta, the event will feature comedians Dan Allen, Sara Benincasa, Jon Friedman, Margot Leitman, Matt McCarthy, Giulia Rozzi and Bex Schwartz.
The event is at the Parkside Lounge, 317 E. Houston Street in NYC, Wednesday March 5 starting at 7:30 pm. Admission is a $10 suggested donation to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. It’s for 21 and over only, with a 2 drink minimum. For more info, visit the CBLDF website.
If you’re in the New York area, please please please go… and please tell me how it went. I’m dying to know.
Ahem, actually it’s Erika Moen, with a K.
“Ahem, actually it’s Erika Moen, with a K.”
Fuck. I knew that. She wrote for my damn book, after all. That’ll teach me to copy and paste from a press release without proofing it first. Sorry, Erika — and thanks for the correction, Wood!
