In the port village of ‘Pedro, where boxes of blobs coagulate and streets flop into the ocean, a small society is keeping the underline open with freeform pot-stirring.
I’ve been saying 'anti-genre' as the sensible refusal of self-categorization, pathetic border-building and commercial algorithmic-appeasement. One Blob appears as slovenly waste topside, but in the depths it’s as graceful as it is useful.
Club Blob Tub is an unfunded independent curatorial endeavor of artist Neil Young aka Neil cloaca Young and friends. Door bucks will go to the artists, please tip your server generously.
‘What you makin, man?’ Please get in touch.

PS - Friend and neighbor Laurie noted at the beginning of her set at CBT1 to remember that LA/San Pedro is on stolen land. The bare minimum should be to love and get to know this place, its plants, animals and waters - to take care of and be thankful for this place and get to know its original caretakers, the Gabrieleno Tongva. I’m grateful for what I continue to learn from rad artists, activists and friends like Laurie. Land back and total liberation are the kinds of worldmaking that I want to foster in the tiny ways that we conjure Club Blob Tub, rather than the dumb greedy war reality that we also currently suffer through. So, let’s fumble around, stay open and please join me in the Tub.
I’ve been living here over TWO YEARS, and I still feel like I know nothing - I love it!
Here’s some LA Links (a list of the things i like):
