I had mentioned this amongst the omnibus post of things happening in Chicago, but Mr. Pyun was kind enough to stop by (!!) and leave a kind note–glad I wasn’t too snarky!–so it seems a bit more of a spotlight of his event is the least I can do. Mr. Pyun was a mainstay of the video rental days, and I can’t imagine this won’t be a spectacular gala.
The Patio Theater in Chicago on 6008 W Irving Park Road will host the event. Info as follows:
