The Bookmobile, the offspring of Williamsburg-based
publisher Autonomedia and the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus, is graduating
into a 15-foot box truck, tricked out like a circus
wagon and touted by a medicine show. Beginning with the fall 2001 Bindlestiff national tour, the Bookmobile will travel ahead of the Cirkus to each town, reaching more readers and carrying more materials than has been possible in its past six years as a table at the Cirkus.


We desperately need money for repairs, insurance, the loan on the
truck, etc. Come to the benefit, get your dose of cirkus and music, and help us spread Situationist rants to the
Florida swamps, smuggle transsexual memoirs into Salt
Lake City, and distribute zines at 65 mph!


This is the chance to catch the Bindlestiffs in a rare
NYC summer performance, featuring Mistress Philomena,
Kinko the Clown, Mr. Pennygaff, Magic Brian, Sxip, Dr.
Flummox, Okra P. Dingle, the Randi Brothers, Smarty
Pants the Clown, and other Bindlestiff favorites.
Cirkus performance begins around 11 pm.


Sxip fans! Can't get enough of the virtuoso inventor
of the Mutant Harmonica, the Obnoxiophone, and the
Tampon Applicator? Don't miss his solo set at 9 pm!


Kick back at 1 am with the ecstatic free-soul of Lower
East Side favorite Mammals of Zod, featuring Citizen
One, Gary Heidt, Daniel Carter, Kid Lucky, Sabir
Mateen and others.


P.S. If you do your own zine, bring a sample! We might
like to distribute it."
