Looks and sounds like we're ready for the show tomorrow (8pm, Saturday, May 4, 2019, St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Church, San Francisco, CA),

snip shop,


with


comics


and


learning how to annotate pdf's,


on


this


on


this


day-before-it


34th


of


summer,


high


up a point to


83


(Berkeley, 63 /


San Francisco, 64),


down the


freeways to


freeform consequences,


returning late,


and somehow composing
