The Long Tail Party

PSFK readers in NYC may be interested to know about an event on Wednesday, July 12th, more like a party, that has been set up by Flavorpill to celebrate the launch of The Long Tail Book. The author, Chris Anderson, says on his blog:

Rather than have the usual book party where a bunch of my friends stand around in a restaurant drinking wine, telling me I’m great and getting free books (while I squirm with embarrassment) we thought we’d do something new and far more appropriate to the book. So we’re going to have an evening that goes from powerpoint to punk rock–something for everyone.

For those who like data, bad Justin Timberlake jokes and the Futura typeface, the party will start with my talk on the Long Tail. For those who would rather rock, the evening will continue with a cool DJ party/concert featuring some of my favorite Long Tail bands and musicians, including James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem/DFA and the Brazilian Girls.

Chris has several tickets to giveaway for the event. To get one simply mail Chris with the word Party! to get included in the draw. (Some vague promise that you might buy his book after the event probably won’t help your chances – but it’s worth a try, no?)
