People who work at publications like this one are convening here this week for the annual alternative newspaper convention.
There’ll be seminars, speakers, awards and lots of shoptalk. By the final night of the convention some sales dog from Phoenix or Vegas or one of those faux cities will end up with his picture on Flickr wearing a lampshade.
It beats ending up at the Roundhouse.
Our crosstown City Paper friends are the hosts for the convention, which runs through Saturday.
Nice guys, the CP folks. Nicer than we are, for sure, since they’re the ones hosting this shing-a-ling.
