Bindlestiff Family Cirkus Update

Howdy
Here is a quick Bindlestiff Update and a schedule for the coming months.

Keep your eyes open this summer for various Bindlestiff Family Cirkus 
members, they are spread around the world. Bindles worked with Ward Hall and 
Chris Christ's World of Wonders 10 in 1 sideshow at the Meadowlands Fair, 
NJ. Angelo Iodice is spinning ropes at "Country Tonight" in Pigeon Forge, 
TN. Una Mimnagh is touring with Circus Boreal in Alaska as a featured 
aerialist. Scotty the Blue Bunny is completing an artist residency in 
Providence, RI. Planet Banana is touring Europe. Amy G and Rocket Johnny are 
in Canada following playing the lead comic roles in the sold out Broadway 
run of Anti-Gravity's "Crash Test Dummies." Sxip Shirey co-wrote all of the 
music for Crash Test Dummies. The Circus Amok show had a number of familiar 
Bindle performers. Corn Mo and Magic Brian have are touring the Northeast. 
And who knows who else is where.

The Cirkus Roadshow caravan is expanding. We acquired a new 
Bookmobile--actually an old box truck--so expect an expanded selection of 
small press publications and zines the next time you see the Autonomadic 
Bookmobile.  There will be a benefit in early August to raise money for 
necessary repairs. Specifics TBA soon..
