Tonight at Cal’s Pharmancy (15 NE Hancock, 8 pm), one-time Jackass and Vice magazine columnist Chris Nieratko will read from his new book Skinema, which assembles seven years of writing about porn (sorta) that Nierkato did for Vice. As you might expect from an unholy mashup of Vice, Jackass, and anal gangbang flicks, Skinema is crasser than Ron Jeremey’s toilet. It’s also funny as hell, with Nieratko telling filthy sex and drug stories tht are only tangentially related to the videos he’s supposed to be reviewing.
Kelly O over at The Stranger caught up with Nieratko and has a great interview with him online.
Kelly O: I’ve read a bunch of your interviews on your website. Isn’t that how you started writing?Chris Nieratko: Yes, my favorite interviews are when people don’t take my bullshit and retaliate—and it seems like it’s going to turn to violence. That’s what makes me happiest, and I don’t mind putting myself in a shitty situation to make people laugh. I think people doing press feel obligated to answer every question, and I like to get them to the point where they finally say, “Fuck it—fuck the free press, I just want to knock this guy’s teeth out.”
Be sure to check out the whole interview, then head over to Cal’s tonight. I’ve got a feeling it’s going o be one of the more raucous book readings we’ll see all year.
and also, please note it's at cal's pharmacy, not cal skate.
