November 6-18: 3 Shows, 1 Drag Revue, and as much Knitting as you can take

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

Hey everybody,

We’re taking a couple of weeks off so that E2 can use the space, but we’re coming back at you on Friday, November 10th 6th. We’ll start off with a show at The Synapsis featuring Warhammer 48k, The Signals, and someone we can’t tell you about yet.

Then on November 10th it’s an Art Hang and the monthly meeting of The Placebo’s Knitting Club. Immediately following, we’re gonna have an All Local Bands show. That puppy is still being organized, so if yer in a band that’s interested in playing, contact Samantha at moohat3 at aol.com.

November 17th, the Flashy Robots are bringing in their futuristic drag punk improv glam rap variety show. Whew. It’ll be good, just-this-side-of-clean fun with a couple of bands to set the tone.

The next day, Saturday November 18th coughmybirthdaycough we have a most excellent show featuring The Pasties, The Trucks, The Professional SuperHeroes, and The Signals. Oh yeah. That night is for to dance.

Do we even need to say that all of this is All-Ages and as cheap to get in as we can make it?

And hey, why don’t you check out The Placebo Forums during the downtime? Get involved, say what you like, what you don’t. Get serious or happy. Talk amongst yerselves, eh?

It’s Your Scene Too, Take Care of It!
