Nate Lippens reads from Bastards, the conclusion to his Wisconsin trilogy, followed by a conversation with Wayne Koestenbaum. Sliding scale tickets available for the one-night event at Parkside Lounge.
An old-school dive with no patience for pretense. The stage in the back has hosted everything from punk shows to poetry readings, and the jukebox up front is stacked with the kind of songs that sound better and better with each round. A place for cheap beer, live performances, and the kind of nights that stretch longer than you planned.
