The Pickup Announces “John Paul Brammer In Person,” An Event Where You Can See John Paul Brammer In Person

And Pickup subscribers get free tickets!

After years of putting together lists of Tulsa's best events, we thought we’d take a shot at putting on Tulsa’s best event ourselves.

John Paul Brammer, writer, Pickup contributor, advice columnist, once-Okie, and Brooklyn coffee shop traveloguer, has agreed to meet us at Chimera Ballroom and read from his forthcoming book, “Reverse Cowboy.” The reading will be followed by a conversation about everything from making a career out of your hilarious Grindr stories to what it means to be an Okie ex-pat. Pickup subscribers get free tickets to this event!
