Jokermen Podcast and (((folkYEAH!))) present:

SAN FRANCISCO, B.C.
A TRIBUTE TO DAVID BERMAN

featuring a screening of the 2007 documentary SILVER JEW:

An intimate portrait of reclusive poet/musician David Berman and his band the Silver Jews. In the midst of their first ever world tour in the summer of 2006, David, his wife Cassie, and the rest of the band--Tony Crow (keyboards), Brian Kotzur (drums), Peyton Pinkerton (guitar), and William Tyler (guitar)--stopped off to play two shows in Tel Aviv and visit Jerusalem.

plus an opening tribute set from MILDRED:

mildred were first friends, then roommates, then a band. Their songs are the result of living room sessions before and after dinner. The border between the living/practice room and kitchen was open and porous. The songs from these sessions later fell into two drawers. The first drawer, marked mild contains songs a little softer around the edges. The contents of the red drawer are a little more angular.

DOORS at 3:30 PM | MUSIC at 4:00 PM | FILM at 4:45 PM

A portion of proceeds will be donated to the David Berman Memorial Fund at WTJU.
