Stefan Gruber, contributor to the Meathaüs SOS comics anthology -- but first and foremost an animator -- is crossing the country on a backyard tour. He'll be screening an hour of his homemade animation shorts out in back of Typo and All Along Press (3159 Cherokee, at the corner of Cherokee and Compton) tomorrow night (Thursday, July 9) at 9 p.m. Word has been passed to me that "those inclined to bring tasty desserts will be hailed as heroes." However, no word if Kaboom cereal with milk counts as a tasty dessert. Get a preview of Stefan's work at his website, stefangruber.com.
Just a side note: I was charmed that he spelled us out minus a "u" on his tour itinerary: "St. Lois." Not to be confused with our warrior king, I believe Lois may be the patron saint of plastic rain bonnets, but let it be known that the name actually does translate "famous warrior." --Stefene Russell

I think you should give Dead Mellotron from Louisiana a listen. I think it'd be cool if you did an album review seeing as someone recently showed them to me and it's amazing.
