Sunday, Nov. 19

From Erik Bluhm:
‘Anyone roaming the streets of Oakland Sunday night might want to pop in at New Yipes where they’ll be showing my short video “Welcome Wizards” (below) alongside “oozing” Steve Brown’s bad vibes 8mm, “High Caledonia.” Stick around for the poetry as well, as E. Tracy Grinnell and Erin Morrill do what they do afterwards. This New Yipes reading will be held at 7 pm on Nov. 19 at 21 Grand located at 416 25th St @ Broadway in Oakland, Calif. “For lack of $4 none will be turned away.”‘

About Jay Babcock

I am an independent writer and editor based in Tucson, Arizona. I publish LANDLINE at jaybabcock.substack.com Previously: I co-founded and edited Arthur Magazine (2002-2008, 2012-13) and curated the three Arthur music festival events (Arthurfest, ArthurBall, and Arthur Nights) (2005-6). Prior to that I was a district office staffer for Congressman Henry A. Waxman, a DJ at Silver Lake pirate radio station KBLT, a copy editor at Larry Flynt Publications, an editor at Mean magazine, and a freelance journalist contributing work to LAWeekly, Mojo, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, Vibe, Rap Pages, Grand Royal and many other print and online outlets. An extended piece I wrote on Fela Kuti was selected for the Da Capo Best Music Writing 2000 anthology. In 2006, I was somehow listed in the Music section of Los Angeles Magazine's annual "Power" issue. In 2007-8, I produced a blog called "Nature Trumps," about the L.A. River. From 2010 to 2021, I lived in rural wilderness in Joshua Tree, Ca.
