Everythign Is Dumbn presents… Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore Book Reading/Signing


Dave Hill–author, musician, comedian and host of The Goddamn Dave Hill Show on WFMU–will be releasing the follow up to Tasteful Nudes with his second collection of hilarious essays, Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore (Penguin Random House). To celebrate, Dave will be performing, signing books and making out with everyone at QED.

Maybe not that last thing. But definitely the first two.

With very special guests Jo Firestone (host of Dr. Gameshow on WFMU) and Aparna Nancherla (Conan, Late Night with Seth Meyers). Hosted by Chris Gersbeck.

Praise for Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore:

“If the rest of this book is as good as that one part I read, I suggest you devour it in one or two sittings.”
—Todd Barry

“ Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore will smack you straight across your stupid funny bone.”
—Michael Ian Black

“Just when you think Dave Hill is going to take the easy way out and comment soberly on the human condition, he makes a fart joke and stands up courageously for heavy metal.”
—Malcolm Gladwell

“ Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore was delicious. No, I didn’t eat it. I just licked it a bunch.”
—Jim Gaffigan

“Dave Hill is a world-famous rock and roll style icon, or at least that’s what he’ll tell you if you ask him. However, ifyou read his thoroughly hilarious Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore, you’ll find that he’s also a warm and witty storyteller.”
—Andy Richter

“For those who look to everything Dave Hill wears with eager expectation, be aware that this long overdue collection of essays does not have any photos. It does not list his current address or contact number. But I have seen Dave wandering around lower Manhattan and he looks really witty and engaging.”
—Janeane Garofalo

“The next president’s first official act should be to declare Dave Hill a living national treasure. He is a major figure among American comic writers, past and present. When reading his stuff, I laugh so loud, the neighbors complain.”
—Dick Cavett
