Warm up with a cold beer and your favorite eclectic monthly reading series! Tuesday Funk returns to the upstairs lounge at Hopleaf on Tuesday, Nov. 3. Co-hosts Eden Robins and Andrew Huff welcome guests Sarah Hollenbeck, Nick Disabato, Kyle Thiessen, Elaine Hegwood Bowen, and former co-host William Shunn. Bill is flying back from New York to read from his new memoir, The Accidental Terrorist: Confessions of a Reluctant Missionary, which will be available Nov. 10.
Doors open at 7:00 pm -- no earlier, we're serious. Don't ruin it for everyone else. But do get there as close to 7 as you can, because the room fills up quickly (hence no admittance before 7). The show starts at 7:30 pm. Admission is free, but you must be 21 or older.
Don't forget to RSVP on Facebook and bring a friend. And if you're not already, become a fan so you never miss an invitation to one of our readings.
Jason handed us drinks with aplomb, and we drank them.
Co-host Andrew Huff then read a story about the very first home he ever lived in as an adult and the crazy shenanigans he got up to there, and finally Coya Paz told us about the wildness of being a mother... and the question of whether or not to do more mothering.
It was a wild night all around, and we'll be doing it again on Tuesday, November 3rd for Tuesday Funk #87! With readings from Sarah Hollenbeck, Nick Disabato, Kyle Thiessen, Elaine Hegwood Bowen, and former co-host William Shunn!
The Oct. 6th edition of Tuesday Funk included a trio of haiku from co-host Andrew Huff
The battle begins.
Halloween versus Christmas
on store shelves now.
Be careful around
Derrick Rose. One wrong move and
he might break again.
Facebook going down
meant sudden increased office
productivity.
We can promise you one thing: there will be no pumpkin spice at Tuesday Funk #86. But there will be Jen Masengarb, Coya Paz, Andrew Huff, Carly Oishi, and Tom Haley! And, of course, your favorite co-hosts Andrew Huff and Eden Robins.
Our readings take place at Hopleaf Bar, 5148 N. Clark St. in Chicago. We get started promptly at 7:30 pm in the upstairs lounge. Arrive early if you want a seat--but no earlier than 7:00 pm. Our readings are free, but only those 21 and over will be admitted. No food can be brought in from the restaurant. See you there!
