PKM Book Tour at Ace Hotel DTLA

August 1 Please Kill Me: 20th Anniversary Book Tour with Legs McNeil And Gillian McCain 8:30pm, Free, Upstairs When Please Kill Me came out in 1996 it was revolutionary, not just because it unabashedly chronicled America's punk movement through first-hand accounts, but because it helped to popularize the oral history style. For the 20th anniversary, Grove Press is issuing a special edition of the book complete with new photos, chapters and an afterword by authors Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain. In celebration, we're honored to host a reading by McNeil and McCain along with a DJ set and afterparty featuring Howie Pyro.
