I Feel Tractor

He is a Texas poet and playwright living in Brooklyn, the coauthor, with Shanna Compton, of the chapbook Big Confetti, and has also been featured on the Poetic Brooklyn radio show.

Monday, May 1, 2006

A better description from Merc: The Post Pacino Spectacular is a festival that will take place on Saturday, June 24th, Saturday, July29, Saturday, August 26, and Saturday, Sept 30. Its all about sounds and visions that don't have a comfortable place within the realm of normality. Post Pacino is not genre specific nor medium specific. Post Pacino is about a coming together of like minded people doing unlikely things. Post Pacino wants to hear from you if you are an artist of any sort - who finds yourself doing something that most people would consider alienating. We're looking for ARTISTS: PAINTERS, DANCERS, BANDS, MUSICIANS, WRITERS, VIDEO ARTISTS and anybody else who is making something that we've never seen, heard or touched before. We're not looking for a common thread - other than an uncommon nature.
___________________________________________________________

Post-Pacino Spectacular, a new night put together by Merc (of Ifwhen) and Ben (of So L’il) will be the latest Goodbye Better production, and we are more than honored and thrilled to be hosting it at our favorite venue in NYC for half a decade now, Pete’s Candy Store, the last Saturday of each month starting in June.

A circus of sorts based around diversity and fostering communication between different communities, including musicians and bands of multiple genres, painters, poets, theater, dancers, and mostly mad fun, the first Post-Pacino Spectacular will take place Saturday, June 24th. Musicians performing will include:

Reflectiostack

So L'il

I Feel Tractor

Ifwhen

Seaman & Queerfunkel

Sleeping Kings of Iona

Katherine Betty Jones will be displaying her paintings.

And the poets Dustin Williamson and Frank Sherlock will be reading.

Additionally, limited edition Goodbye Better compilations and zines will be released in accordance with each performance.

Pete’s Candy Store is located at 709 Lorimer St., Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
For more info on them please visit: http://www.petescandystore.com

Post-Pacino Spectaculars will be events, happenings, celebrations.
We more than hope to see you there*. Gratzi mucho.
Love,
Goodbye Better

ps: the dates on the subsequent Post-Pacino Spectaculars will be Saturday, July 29, Saturday, August 26, and Saturday, September 23. Gratzi!
