ROTHKO live reading at Tertulia - photos and video!

We had a great live reading of ROTHKO on Feb. 21 at the fabulous Tertulia Espresso Cafe in Toronto, with musicians Mikhial Gurarie (bass), Adam Reich (atmospheres and textures) and Paul Ruston (guitar), with yours truly playing drum and reading character voices. 

The actual book will be launched by Éditions TRIP Comix at the TCAF (Toronto Comic Arts Festival) on May 11-12, 2019!

Thanks to all who came!  And we had another reading of ROTHKO two days later, along with WHAT IS MEDITATION? I'll post video of that soon!  Meanwhile,

Here's a short Instagram video:



And some photos!
