APE Days, APE Nights
Perhaps you've heard of this little shindig, happening at The Concourse in SF this Saturday and Sunday. You can get in really cheap, I believe it is $10 for both days, and find enough indie comics to beat the (unsigned, hip local) band. But don’t think the show ends at The Concourse! There's plenty to do around town as the Bay Area goes APE crazy.
Friday gives us APE$#!T (pronounced "ape-shit") where 11 Bay Area cartoonists like Jesse Reklaw and Justin Hall show their work. Hall will also be moderator at the Queer Cartoonists Panel at APE.
Saturday is the start of the con-madness. After a day of walking around the convention you'll want a drink so you'll at least feel like you've got a grip on your sanity. That's where Brett Warnock of Top Shelf and The Isotope come in. The Top Shelf Happy Hour is 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. on the 8th with Warnock, publisher and bartender extraordinaire, serving up drinks. Sip from a nice cool margarita while you find out what it feels like to be a publisher Alan Moore doesn't hate.
Also on Saturday is the MOME/Giant Robot APE after party. That's from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. You can compare your relationship problems to Jeffery Brown, whom I'm sure isn't in any way sick of talking about that subject.
What's happening on Sunday? Nothing, San Francisco is a Christian city and we're all in church that day. You might have heard different but you heard wrong. I mean, why do you think one of our favorite drag acts is called Peaches Christ?
