About Me

THIS MAY After much anticipation, we are thrilled to finally announce the 2008 Left Field Project “Right to Left” tour. We’ve been working on this show for over a year now and have spent many sleepless nights putting together the perfect roster:Andy Howell Brian Flynn Andy Mueller Morning Breath Ethan Anderson Dustin Koop Andrew Pommier Duane FernandezAlong with the show, Left Field Project will be designing a zine and screen printed posters. If you want one, you best make your way to the Grand Opening at each venue.The tour will kick off in North Carolina, May 9th at Wootini [Carrboro, near Chapel Hill]. The tour will then make its way 1122 miles over to Tulsa – Oklahoma. Following the Tulsa show, we will then jump on the I-40 and make the 1738 mile trip to San Francisco.
This month's window will be masterfully presented by Ian Pause. Ian is a design mastermind with an amazing penchant for creating stunning, stylish atmospheres with the simplest of materials. Come and see for yourselves.
Join us for the opening on April 11th. There will be food and refreshments for all of the moochers, and as usual, Family will be providing the stellar sounds. We are closed during the day until the opening.
