EBAn old roommate of mine saw so much live music that he kept an excel spreadsheet entitled concerts.xls that listed dates, bands that played, location, price, and notes for every show he ever saw. While I was not quite so organized, I knew without counting that for many years the bands I’d seen the most were Sleater-Kinney and Rainer Maria. I don’t go to all that many shows anymore, but I do go to many, many readings. And last night, sitting at Blake Butler’s reading at McNally Jackson, I realized that he might now be the author I’ve seen read most frequently at four times. I can’t think of another author I’ve seen read so often (maybe Marcy Dermansky? I’ve definitely seen her at least three times, but I can’t remember a fourth.)
Who’s the author you’ve seen read the most?
