Sweet revenge: Dave Eggers, Of Montreal, Eugene Mirman team up at Berklee
In case the text above is too tiny for your squinting, Friday morning after a late Thursday night, pre-coffee eyes, get the larger version here. Even then, it'll most likely seem too good to be true. Dave Eggers? Of Montreal? Eugene Merman? At one event? Yep, our friends at 826 Boston are rocking out (in the karmic-ly correct, humanitarian way) as usual - in case you aren't in the loop about 826's awesome mission, consult Nina's piece from last March here. Here's the info on the event, from our inbox:
