7 Days down. Punk Rock!!!
We’re getting into a bit of a groove here in Chicago, and in our seventh full day of broadcasting at Buddy gallery we had a grand ole time with more guests than you can shake a stick at, and some neighborly good performances. It’s a shame we’ll be leaving in just two days.
For Linda’s show , Sue Frame came by to talk about the free bunny tattoos that she gives (MP3). After the interview Sue spirited Linda away to mark her shoulder with one of those beautiful bunny tattoos. Before getting her tattoo though, Linda had some interviews to do. Next up was Trish from the Clothing Change Exchange who was setting up her exchange while we were broadcasting(MP3). Then came Aay Preston Myint who talked about the temporary autonomous video production studio known as Pilot Chicago. You may recall yesterday’s discussion of all the live work spaces in Chicago? Well ….. Aay lives at Young Archer(MP3). Linda finished her show off by speaking with an officiator at some of Chicago’s same sex marriage ceremonies, the Rev. Roger Brewen (MP3) … then off she went to get her bunny tattoo.
Michael Starve ran an archive edition of the Starve Zone program that originally ran during our Indecency program in which he interviewed Chicago based cartoon artist Ivan Brunetti (MP3).
Ian Harris and Ryan Collins from the Columbia College Poetry Department read some poems for Poetic License (MP3) and Jon interviewed and improvised with noise musician, DJ and resident of Buddy gallery, Rotten Milk among other things they talked about the Terry Plumming record label and the Terry Plumming Summit . (MP3)
Roman Mars interviewed Lee during his show for a piece he’ll be writing in hopes that it will be published for Punk Planet magazine. (MP3) Anne Elizabeth Moore, associate publisher of said magazine was also on hand and we all went out for a nice slice of Santullo’s pizza which has been one of the primary providers of food for our trip so we figured we’ld provide a little sponsorship link…. even though they haven’t given us any discounts or free slices or anything.
As long as we’re mentioning commercial friends we should probably note that the folks at Quimby’s books have apparently been tuning in to our broadcasts on a fairly regular basis, but also have not provided us with any free stuff.
And that’s the way we like it.
