This Winter has been extremely committed to its Winteriness (Winterosity?) and shows little sign of abating.
Therefore, it is incumbent on us to adjust our mindsets and pretend that this assault from the sky is a wonderful gift. Actuuually...
The Hell With That! Let's have a Sultry Steaming Hootenanny and rage against these indignities from the Troposphere!!!
We shall rock out like mad monkeys and enjoy the hell out of each other's company and the ecstasy of sharing ourselves in a fearless forthright fashion.
Y'all know how we roll; an eclectic array of talented performers, a passel of scintillating spectators, and the gorgeous North Street Cabaret with its panoply of inexpensive libations.
"Universal Liberation Through Creative Self-Actualization"* is our motto and a rocking good time for all is our goal.
These festivities are as rewarding for the audience as they are for the performers, SO THEREFORE:
Come on by and enjoy the Joy and the Love!!!
*More T-shirts with that motto shall be available!!! In S, M, L, XL, XXL, and XXXL
