Gavin Tartowski Signs On
For those of you familiar with the film "A. (anonymous)," no introduction of Gavin Tartowski will be needed. Those unfamiliar should head to his website, www.myspace.com/gavin_tartowski, though we'd note that you should adjust your computer's volume, as you'll be greeted by a blast of pure, pop bliss in the form of the Tight Pants Syndrome's "Your Buzz is Safe with Me."
Okay, so back to Gavin.
He'll be hosting the 52nd City Variety Show at the Independent Art Market on Friday, December 8. Several august St. Louisans will be taking part, dispensing their talents in equal measure. (I, for example, will be reading a book about whorehouses in 19th century St. Louis. Really. Chris King, meanwhile, will dust off his kid's finger puppets for an abridged reading of "Hamlet." Really.) Despite Gavin's coming aboard, we note that several slots are still available and we'd love to fill them with you. Or your accordian-playing twin brother.
Gavin's also promising "audience interaction," so please, you are warned.
