Markos at Tattered Cover and Drinking Liberally Tonight

If you're near Denver, the place to be tonight is Lodo's Tattered Cover where Markos will be discussing his book and signing copies, followed by Drinking Liberally where he will be available for discussion.

5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
The Tattered Cover Bookstore
1628 16th Street
Denver, CO

7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Double Daughters (Drinking Liberally)
1632 Market Street
Denver, CO

The TL kid and I took Markos to lunch yesterday at Avenue Grill where we got to catch up on the past year and hear about his plans for the future.

Yesterday morning (while the TL kid slept in), Progress Now hosted a webcast (you can listen here) with Markos, followed by coffee and bagel chat with Markos and 15 or so local bloggers and political progressives.

Among those in attendance (and I will miss some, I'm sure): TL's webmaster Mike Ditto who is now working full time for Coloradans for Fairness and Equality, The Wash Park Prophet (Andrew Oh-Willeke), Colorado Lib's Matt Ingwalson, Heading Left's Aaron Silverstein, Sandra Fish of New West and Drinking Liberally's John Erhardt, who writes at Soapblox.

A communications person from Sen. Ken Salazar's staff, a representative from the state Democratic party and Jared Polis were also on hand and actively participating in the discussion.

A major thanks to Progress Now's Bobby Clark who did an outstanding job of putting it all together. So if you missed yesterday, please stop by the Tattered Cover and Drinking Liberally tonight. Markos heads on to Los Angeles Thursday where he regroups with his co-author Jerome and continues the book tour.

And don't forget to read Crashing the Gates and learn what all the buzz is about. Big Ink attended the Boulder event last night and presents some of what Markos had to say. Markos has more on the Democratic party philosophy today.

    I get to see Markos this weekend in Santa Barbara (and get the authors to sign my copy of "Crashing the Gate"). Our virtual community will seem just a bit more real after that. ...cheers!

    What is "Drinking Liberally"? A bar? Restaurant? Coffee shop?

    Drinking Liberally is national, find the one in the city nearest you.

    Thanks for the link TL. Although I don't think my viewpoints would be embraced at a Drinking Liberally meeting, I think the idea is brilliant.
