Next week in San Francisco, Survival Research Laboratories and SomArts are holding a benefit for Tim "Hoverdrum" North and his family, who are in a time of great need. Apart from being a talented visual artist and live performer and the inventor of the Hoverdrum, Tim is a beloved personal friend. He was recently diagnosed with stage four cancer — the disease's most critical phase, on a scale of zero to four.
The event promises to be northing short of amazing: "A brilliant night of Music, Art-auction, Videos from local, national and international artists" is planned, along with live SRL robotics performances, an assortment of DJs, body-drum performers, — and the (ahem) much-anticipated release of The Official SRL Nudie Calendar. Take it from me, people, the pinup calendar will be H4WT. Let's just say I have my sources.
Showtime: Tuesday, March 25, 7 p.m. to 2 a.m.; Door $10 – $10,000 sliding scale; location: SomArts Gallery, 934 Brannan, San Francisco, CA 94103. All proceeds go to the North family. Not to be missed.
