We're starting to lose some of them too.

Re: Clash II Book Coming Soon...Summer 2013
Time to jump-start this thread again with a bit of news: WE ARE THE CLASH is off to the printers later this week, once Mark and I review a final proof copy from Akashic. Baker has written the forward for us, entitled "Jewels From The Wreckage," which will inspire its own share of commentary and appreciation, I suspect.
Publication is supposed to follow during the first week in July, so I can safely say, we're finally across the finish line. In hindsight, I suspect the original udea (Summer 2013) proved a tad optimistic, for various boring reasons that I don't need to elaborate, but that's neither here nor there.
The first events are confirmed for Friday, July 6, at Politics & Prose (Washington, DC) and Tuesday, July 10, at Word (Brooklyn, NY). More cities and events will be announced as we sort out the details.
It's been a long time, certainly, since this effort started, but -- as I've stated -- it'll be well worth the wait. Enjoy the postcards -- just a sampling of what I did for our KS campaign -- and, like the sleeve says, thanks to all who joined in.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Awesome, Chairman! I've been looking forward to this for, uh, *checks thread title* five years.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Good luck with it mate, you can count on me picking a copy up.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board
