Jason Jaworski’s DIE JUNGE DIE YOUNG

Posted by Ken, February 26, 2011

Jason Jaworski is opening his latest performance/film piece this weekend at San Francisco’s annual Noise Pop festival. Aptly titled DIE JUNGE DIE YOUNG, the film serves as a summation of Jaworski’s year in travels and an expression of his pain at the recent loss of some friends and family. The last time we saw Jaworski perform, he was on stage with David Choe’s (featured), both in their underwear, serving as backup dancers to Die Antwo0rd.

Streets / Video : Mear One in Los Angeles

Posted by Susie Lee, February 26, 2011
