pith:

On the morning after Hurricane Sandy, the West Village, now part of the zombie apocalypse No Power Zone known as downtown Manhattan, looked no worse off than if a strong wind passed through the neighborhood. Residents were out in the streets, lining up at the bagel store, walking their dogs, and surveying the mess.

A mile north, the power was on and everything really was mostly back to normal. And a few miles to the east and south, homes were destroyed and lives lost.

On August 2nd, we’re playing Bowie’s underrated masterpiece Diamond Dogs in its entirety at San Francisco’s historic Vogue Theater. I’ll be joined by Jason Slota on drums, Jamie Riotto on upright bass, and Rob Shelton on Rhodes.  After that we’ll watch a glorious print of Gondry’s The Science of Sleep. Tix are here. This is going to be a special night!!!

Bay Area Friends: this is going to be fun!
