May VAMP: “America’s F*&$% City”

May
30
8:30 pm

by Ryan Bradford

“Happy Happens”, or so goes the motto of our fair city. No really, we’re serious. San Diego’s motto isn’t “America’s Finest City” anymore. It was changed back in 2009. Let that sink in for a moment. Yeah.

But if you live here you know life isn’t all palm trees and jello shooters. May’s VAMP tells the stories of the shady side of San Diego, the parts that don’t make it into the tourism brochures, the kind of noir and depravity that couldn’t happen anywhere else, or at least in plain view under blinding sunshine.

Featuring:

Julia Evans
Eddie Deull
Ryan Bradford
Nancy Cary
Matt Lewis
Dave Callans
Sami Peterson
Hanna Tawater
