Girls to the Front: The True Story of the Riot Grrrl Revolution
Saturday Oct 2, 2010 (8pm)
Bruar Falls
245 Grand Street
“With the recent resurgence of interest in Riot Grrrl, author Sara Marcus is right on the ball with the publication of her first-hand account of the movement, Girls to the Front: The True Story of the Riot Grrrl Revolution. Her New York book release party is all that you would expect. With remarks from Kathleen Hanna (lead singer of leading Riot Grrrl band Bikini Kill) and performances by Christy & Emily, Sarah Jaffe, and Tami Hart, this event is both a unique look back in time and a reflection by key members on what Riot Grrrl means today.”
Performing: Mirah (playing with an all-star band — including Bryce Panic, Sara Jaffe & Mindy Abovitz), Christy & Emily (full-band version) and Tami Hart. With remarks by Kathleen Hanna, video screenings by Lauryn Siegel and Cat Tyc, brief readings by Sara Marcus, DJ Emoticon and DJ Automaton (PDX/LA).
