It looks like summer's back for a last (I hope) hurrah. If anyone has a child or child-like friend I can borrow, I'm considering taking a break from the heat at the Saturday noon opening of Hamlet, Prince of Puddles at Bootleg Theatre. It's family-friendly fare that promises to be funny enough to produce a few puddles in the audience, which sounds better than dealing with the puddles you'll find in the pool…
Saturday night, GLOW returns to Santa Monica Beach and Pier from 7pm to 3am with a night of art and music commissioned for the event. Synn Labs (the group behind the monthly Mindshare events downtown) will be participating.
On Sunday, I'll be your hostess at an artsy 1940s Mt. Angelus cottage, so come see me in Highland Park! details
In other news, Origami Vinyl just announced that they'll have SUPERCHUNK in-store for brunch on Tuesday, October 19. There are only 40 spots, so if you want to go, secure one quickly by picking up the new album or one of the reissues.
