I Spy: Serving up Pulp art at Abraço

Britpopsters Pulp has returned for its first stateside tour in 12 years, playing last night and tonight at the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn. 

In addition, Mark Webber, the band's guitarist, is releasing a personal history titled "I'm With Pulp, Are You?" (Hat & Beard Press) in November. 

Webber lived briefly on Seventh Street in the late 1990s. Yesterday, he stopped by Abraço, 81 E. Seventh St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue, to check out the artwork that Steve Keene created of Pulp's classic 1995 record Different Class. (The artwork is up for auction.) 

This might sound like Pulp fan fiction, but ... Cecilia Ghidotti, a fan who traveled from the UK to see the Brooklyn shows, came to Abraço while Webber was there. And a photo proves it  (thanks, Daniel Efram) ...
The Pulp art is expected to be up at the coffee shop through the end of the month.
