come with me (or a map of indie north america).
hello folks,
in response to a growing number of requests for touring information and resources, i have started a streamlined project for sharing the network of indie shops, boutiques and galleries i have encountered in my years of touring - the indie map of north america!
this is by no means a comprehensive list of every boutique and gallery out there. instead, it is something of and organically-curated group of places that has mostly sprung from my own experiences. although there are a few places there that i have never visited (and i mean a very few), this map can also serve as a loose vouch from your friend, becky.
hopefully, this will tide y'all over into the full touring resource zine is done at the end of the year.
of course, i strongly welcome your suggestions. feel free to leave tips about your favourite indie haunts in the comments section here. i have painfully few in brooklyn and new york, for instance. and i know the places are out there.
and if you run a space that should be on there, go add yourself to google places. you have to be the business owner to do that, and i get distressed every time i go to look up a favourite shop or space and can not find it. i want to tell people about you!

such an amazing resource. thank you so so much for taking the time to do this.....
i love this!
thanks, guys! and don't think for a moment that this is not partly self-serving. having a visual, updatable map to help plan my travels is long overdue. plus it makes me happy to see just how big this indie network of ours is.
