Hello Everyone,

Myself and Sara Jaffe (formerly of Erase Errata) have co-edited a book called The Art of Touring. The book features artwork, photography and writing reflecting life on the road, plus a DVD of live footage. Contributors include Sonic Youth, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Devendra Banhart, Electrelane, the Ex, Le Tigre, Explosions in the Sky, Jem Cohen, Tara Jane ONeil and many more.

The book is published by the wonderful Portland-based imprint, Yeti.

More information can be found here:

and here:

We are going to have a couple of events to celebrate the release of the book. The first will be in NYC on August 4th 2009. We will have a reading at Bluestockings bookstore in Manhattan from 7pm, featuring Sara Jaffe, Jem Cohen, Sara Marcus, myself and others. Then, from 10pm-2am, I will be DJing as one half of DARK HABITS at Bruar Falls in Brooklyn.

Any NYC-based people, it would be lovely to see you there!

Mia

The title of this blog entry was a horrible tease. For a second there, I thought you were (surprisingly) going on tour again.  Anyway, sounds like such a great book... looking forward to it!

This sounds cool but I feel tricked! I got really excited when I saw the title of the blog... thought you were back and touring...  :(   But still exciting non the less! I just might have to make the drive from Buffalo.
