Lots of news today ::: Local upcoming events
Wednesday April 30th 8pm till last call. The Monthly Montreal Comix Jam – Casa del Popolo 4873 boul. St-Laurent. If you missed the jam last month there will be copies of the 3rd edition of the quarterly available. Also if I’ve talked to you before about the web zine or you’re just interested be around and available for 10pm for a short pow-wow to count heads and discus the possibilities.
Thursday, May 1, 7:00-ish PM. Vernissage: You are cordially invited to the opening of "GLUE HEAD" a collection of (mostly) collage art by Tim Moerman at Cafe Pi, 4127 Boul. St.-Laurent (between Rachel and Duluth.) Come see these works the way they were meant to be seen - through a blinding fog of tobacco smoke and beer! (download the flyer by Tim)
Friday May 2nd 7pm – 2am the Roy st Strip Sessions! Another local monthly comix jam. 111 Roy St. est @ the corner of Roy & Colonial - info 514 284 52211 If the first of the Strip Sessions is anything to go by this looks to be the sort of bohemian party comix jam that Rupert’s old Stornaway events were, could prove to be a summer highlight. Jai, the host tells me he plans on moving them back a bit in the month so that the Old MMCJ regulars can catch a breath between events (crazy kids ;) ). (download the flyer by Jai)

Right here @ the MCC Another Supersized: Master Baichoo Time "Everyone get naked ‘cause its Master Baichoo time! (Okay, lame inside joke that only a few people will actually get, but one must always take advantage to mock your friends in public when they’ve asked for it.) This time around we’ll be exploring sex and art, if you’re still around after that I’ll just have to see what comes up… so to speak."
And over in another dark corner of the web, Claude Lalumière's Lost Pages, Lots of stuff to read, some of it is even about comics, but not to much....
