As always, doors are at 7PM, poetry at 7:15 and guest around 9.

Ducky Waddle's is @ 414 N Coast Hwy 101 in Encinitas, just South of Lou's.

PRE SHAUX

You heard about Mad House VI yah? You know, that amazing night of live electronic music, dancing and art taking place at the Belly Up on 4/20? The one where we're raising money to support Ducky Waddle's Emporium through an insanely sweet silent auction with works from Mary Fleener, Shepard Fairey and more? Well, guess what?

We're doing a pre- Mad House VI show live at the Duck, for those of you who can't get enough Mad House or can't get out on Wednesday or just aren't old enough to enter the Belly Up.

Come see awesome electronic duo: Gaux Nu Vaux play a special acoustic set, and catch 'Ruckus/Freak for All' regular Starfish (aka Molly Mackin) open up the night with her golden voice.

This show is free, but we are suggesting a donation of books, CD's or anything else you think might be bitchin' new inventory for the Duck. Just don't be offended if Jerry puts it in the dollar bin!

Ed Coonce Set to Massacre Ducky Waddle's Poetry Ruckus

This WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23rd is our next Ducky Waddle's Poetry Ruckus with doors at 7 PM, poetry starting at 7:15 and our guest of honor Ed Coonce going on at 9 PM. If you are familiar with the Ruckus, then you surely have heard Ed's starkly hilarious poems and short stories before. And if you are new to the Ruckus, then you certainly will not want to miss this performance from the man whose musings range from Caliphate paranoia to Tarantino-esque Teletubby blood baths. A Ruckus of epic proportions to be sure! Don't miss it.

Ducky Waddle's Emporium is @ 414 N Coast Highway 101, Encinitas CA 92024

Please send me an RSVP email ASAP if you would like to read. Please bring anything you would like to read that fits in at under five minutes.

That's right people, this coming Monday Feb 7th is the first Monday of the month, and that means the Freaks will all be out at E-Street cafe from 7-9 PM. The Freak for All is an open mic with an emphasis on improv and experimentation. All forms of live performance are encouraged, though spoken word and music are most frequently on display. Come out and do something freaky and original!

Two nights later, Wednesday February 9th you can find us Ruthless Hippies at Ducky Waddle's Emporium for the Poetry Ruckus. Our guest will be none other than the Derek Firenze. Since the very first run, Derek has been stalwart at the Ruckus (mind you he is neither stale, nor does he have warts ), crafting poems that range from humorous to whimsical to serious to disturbing and back (often in the same poem) and he gives his all to each reading. Please stick around and support one of our favorite Ruckus Rousers.

Doors 7, starts 7:15, guest 9 PM. Those looking to read MUST RSVP to: ruthlesshippies@gmail.com.
