If you´re in Vienna right now and looking for an entertaining way to take your mind off all the pre-christmas hassle, this little event might be just the thing for you: Some of the finest and funniest Austrian poetry-slammers (Markus Köhle, Andi Pianka, Christian Schreibmüller and Lale Rodgarkia-Dara among others) will be reading tonight at the presentation of "Rollen & Bilder", the 12th issue of rotaug-affiliated literature magazine "& Radieschen" (cover and layout by yours truly), 

starting at 8pm at Café Anno,
Lerchenfelderstraße 132, 1080 Wien.

If you can´t make it but would care for some witty holiday reading material, or are still looking for an original present for that literature-crazy friend of yours, you can also order the magazine or request a one-year subscription to get the current as well as the next 3 issues (for € 3.50 each) by sending an e-mail to redaktion (at) radieschen.at.

For those of you who are in Vienna this week: You should definitely check out a week-long festival called RUN VIE starting tomorrow, Monday, October 5th, hosted by our friends from supercity.at

Just to give you some names and highlights: Tomorrow there will be a fLako performance at Café Leopold in the course of RUN VIE vs. Blue Flowers. Tuesday would probably be my personal favourite event as DJ Buzz is presenting his Cosmic War of the Planets at Bellaria Kino together with Dorian Concept, DJ Chris Fader and the Twintowas. Prepare for some audiovisual explosion! (btw, there's also a very good limited edition LP that goes by the same name, definitely worth checking out!) The week continues strong with RUN VIE going head to head with VICE, The Loud Minority, Melting Pot Music and Praterei and acts like Dimlite, Die Vamummtn, JR&PH7, Marc Hype & Jim Dunloop, Mike Slott, Bobbito Garcia, Wisdom, Brenk, Trishes, Zuzee, Pezo Fox and many more ...

For the full event lineup and schedule either head to the Supercity Blog or get the german *.pdf overview here.

dear friends and music lovers. most of you (i can say, because the salon was unfortunatelly no too filled) missed a really nice concert at Cafe Leopold yesterday night: AleXdrum Spacejam feat. Oliver Steger (bass), Barbara Paierl (sax), Alex Deutsch (drums) and MDK (turntables),... great bass lines and drumming, that give you the creeps. i had it several times yesterday night.
