Bad boy music legend Andre "Mr. Rhythm" Williams will be reading excerpts from his hot off the press, semi-autobiographical collection of short stories, "Sweets". Please join hosts Miriam Linna (Norton Records/Kicks Books/A-Bones) and John Phillips for a wild evening of prose, profanity and Andre mayhem! Get your heads rearranged and your books signed by the Godfather of greasy R 'n B and swing to the fine tunes of deejay Mr. Wiggles! Mr. Williams will be fielding questions, so come prepared - this promises to be an historic evening! ANDRE!!!!
