in deep

i had a dream last night that some­how i end­ed up run­ning a three tier FLOMM ex­trav­a­gan­za at an event site where each tier was per­for­mance-based (comedy/improv/burlesque), per­for­mance-based (music/drama/Shakespeare) and a deal­er space that was mor like a re­al­ly un­usu­al bazaar/flea mar­ket with (of course) tons of rare books for sale, zines and FLOM­MIST-made whiskey (which I’ve been told is il­le­gal). AND I had no idea about this, but we some­how had booked Louis CK as tal­ent in the com­e­dy thing and one of the or­ga­niz­ers was also wor­ried CK might stand on stage and jerk off in front of every­one. Right be­fore he was to ap­pear on stage, a riot broke out and we had to fig­ure out how to keep him from be­ing killed by a bunch of re­al­ly an­gry, vi­o­lent lib­er­als (one guy kept yelling that CK killed his sis­ter and want­ed re­venge). We were also in a rur­al space ac­ces­si­ble by one road in and out – kin­da like this place – and be­cause of glob­al warm­ing, ocean lev­els start­ed to rise even­tu­al­ly flood­ing every­thing, wip­ing out the road in and out, in­clud­ing this to­tal­ly fucked up small house one of the bands man­aged to get peo­ple to stay at. We had to evac­u­ate and leave all our stuff be­hind and we end­ed up wan­der­ing thru an­oth­er small town to es­cape the flood where they had in­cred­i­ble hand­made tor­tillas, co­chini­ta, po­zole and re­al­ly fresh fish (fish were every­where cause of the flood) but no one had any cash on them and they didn’t take Ap­ple Pay.

•  FLOMM 423 BLUE has been moved to March in Stock­ton. It may or may not be like my dream.

•  AVANT: a per­for­ma­tive cri­tique on moder­ni­ty will hap­pen this fall in San Fran­cis­co (de­tails to come). 

•  RADíO FLoMM – our SEC­OND pod­cast – will pre­miere Oc­to­ber SEC­OND as some­thing to­tal­ly dif­fer­ent than wat we’ve done be­fore. De­von Parks-Clouti­er and an en­sem­ble of FLOM­MISTS world­wide are be­hind the scenes on this one. If you kno some­one who is do­ing in­cred­i­ble art just un­der the main­stream, makes mu­sic or any sound (it’s au­dio!) drop us a line or DM us on In­sta­gram.

•  UN­SO­LICIT­ED DECK PICS is hap­pen­ing in Sacra­men­to Sat­ur­day 29 Sep­tem­ber. Go see CAR­LO, he’ll have a lim­it­ed batch of FLOMM swag on hand.

•  And HUGE THANKS to Nao­mi, our top tier bene­fac­tor on Pa­tre­on. We are able to at least pay our in­ter­net bill nowwww, you guys have NO IDEA how im­por­tant that is.
