Mike McCready will be making special appearances in Seattle and New York to celebrate the release of his forthcoming photo book, Of Potato Heads and Polaroids: My Life Inside and Out of Pearl Jam, which is available everywhere on Tuesday, May 30.

 

MAY 30 - SEATTLE - KEXP GATHERING SPACE

The Seattle Of Potato Heads and Polaroids event takes place on book release day, Tuesday, May 30, at KEXP’s Gathering Space in partnership with the Elliott Bay Book Company. The evening begins with a discussion and Q&A with Mike moderated by host of the Afternoon Show and Senior Director of Programming at KEXP, Kevin Cole, followed by a book signing.

This event will be streamed live on Pearl Jam’s Facebook page. An exhibit of a selection of Mike’s photos from the book will be on display for a month starting on the night of the event.

JUNE 7 - NEW YORK - STRAND BOOKSTORE

The New York Of Potato Heads and Polaroids event takes place on Wednesday, June 7 at Strand Books in the Rare Book Room. Co-author of Pearl Jam Twenty and longtime Pearl Jam friend, Jonathan Cohen, will moderate a discussion and Q&A with Mike followed by a book signing.

    That went fast for NY, should've bought when I had the chance. Does admission + gift card mean you need to bring your own book to be signed, or you don't get anything signed?

    I got the signed book option before it sold out but I was wondering the same. 

    This is looks like it will sell out very quickly after the 10C email was sent.

    I was just in and they still had them for NYC.  Looks like they are releasing in bunches. Sometimes both admissions available, sometimes just the 15 admission with gift card.  I didn't check Seattle since I am 3000 miles away!

    I don't get it - why does the NYC option make it sound like I'm buying the book again? What option do I pick if I'm bringing the book?

    Same. I did general admission because I thought I'd have to buy the book again. So vague...
