Heebie Jeebies in CBGB's (and at the Middle East)

Was lucky enough to get out last night to the Middle East to catch the book party for

1) The paperback release of The Heebie Jeebies at CBGB's A Secret History of Jewish Punk and


2) Awake! A Reader for the Sleepless


The former of which was written by and the latter edited by local author Steven Lee
Beeber.

The good folks from Pabst Blue Ribbon kept us in free beers (the smell of my grandfather, now in a can!), while Awake! authors read their stuff to the tuneless and uncomfortable musical natterings provided by members of Tiger Saw and Kosher Ham (I hoped they'd call this melting pot lineup 'Kosher Tiger' but sadly, no such luck). Still, a nice night out indeed.

Clip below, Beeber opens the show.
