Mark Webber in conversation: I'm with Pulp, Are You?

Please note: the venue DOES have air conditioning. As at 1630 on Thursday 17 July, we have 18 tickets left.

Pulp guitarist Mark Webber introduces the paperback edition of his history of the band, 'I'm with Pulp, Are You?', in a special Sunday-evening event at the Boston Room on Chiswick High Road.

Both Mark and Pulp have unique stories within pop: Mark, the longtime fan asked to join the band ahead of their huge mid-90s successes; Pulp, the band who took 13 years to achieve their mainstream breakthrough. As fan and then guitarist, Mark has been around and in the band for 40 years, all the way through to their current, triumphant comeback, with their No 1 album 'More', sell-out arena tour and acclaimed Glastonbury appearance.

'I’m With Pulp, Are You?' is a lavishly illustrated celebration of the band, drawing on Mark's collection of archival objects, ephemera and images. The book has a foreword by Jarvis Cocker and newly commissioned essays by music writers Simon Reynolds and Luke Turner.

The revised and expanded paperback edition features recently discovered images and brings the Pulp story up-to-date, including the recording of 'More'.

At the George IV, Mark will be reflecting on Pulp's 40-year career and his part in it in conversation with journalist and longtime fan Duncan Steer, previously host of talk nights with Baxter Dury, Nick Lowe, Don Letts and Pulp drummer Nick Banks.

There will be a chance to ask your own questions.

Early tickets are £13 or £32 including the paperback of ''I'm with Pulp. Are You?' (RRP: £25). (Booking fee included.) Tickets on the door will be £15.
