Some Pines News:

Phil Cordelli and Brandon Shimoda will be reading from THE PINES at Freebird in Brooklyn, New York on Wedneday, June 15th, 7 pm. They will be accompanied by poet Quinn Latimer, Brooklyn-based band Flying, and other luminaries to be announced soon. Freebird is located at 123 Columbia Street (between Degraw/Kane) in Red Hook.

THE PINES VOLUME ONE: SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - the first limited edition, letterpressed volume in The Pines' ongoing collaboration - is now available. Email thepines@ureach.com to receive a copy - for a mere $3!

You should really check the Pines out--there are some beautiful poems in there. Octopus will be doing a review of both Volumes 1 and 2 as soon as #2 comes out (did I just say #2 comes out?).

Thanks for the plug Z... It'll be sad not having you there... in fact, it would be perfect if you were in attendance to read alongside us, maybe the greatly hailed "Trail of Tears," or some such similar road-conceived diamond. I hope that someday Phil and I will incorporate Nebraska into our reading "tour" - which will consist, possibly, of the two of us sleeping on people's back porches and stealing brown & serve sausages out of their freezers. (and maybe reading too, but most likely Harpers Index or News of the Weird, aloud).
