Reading, writing, and wrasslin'

The Poetry Unbound reading series, which unites literature lovers on the first Sunday of every month, is taking a pugilistic turn this week with readings from Fightin' Words: 25 Years of Provocative Poetry and Prose from The Blue-Collar PEN. Readers include Andrena Zawinski, whose poem What About a Fight? traces a lifetime's worth of male aggression, as well as fellow Fightin' Words contributors Andy Ross, John Curl, Judith Cody, and more. With stories about radical politics, social justice, and everyday ass-kickers, only the serene setting of the Art House Gallery will keep this gathering from erupting into a battle royale.

Poetry Unbound #22 starts at 5 p.m., Art House Gallery, 2905 Shattuck Ave., Berkeley. $5; (510) 472-3170 or berkeleyarthouse.wordpress.com. Giselle Velazquez

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
