Camp Tipsy
Camp Tipsy is a camping trip with some entertainment and dumb boats. Everyone is welcome to come. You can come for a day or a week. It starts tomorrow. It's a donation, there is no set fee. We have build some interesting floating vessels. Dogs and kids are welcome.Camp Tipsy is located at East Park Reservoir near the town of Lagoda, California. It's like 120 miles north of SF.
Take 80 East towards Des Moines.
Merge onto 505 following signs to Winters.
505 dumps you out onto I 5.
You'll be taking I 5 north past Arbuckle.
Past Williams.
Just before the exit for Maxwell, you'll see a brown sign. East Park Reservoir.
Take the exit and make a left. Drive through the town of Maxwell west.
The speed limit is 25 MPH through town. There is a store there, on your left.
Drive about 9 miles, until you get to a "T".
Make a right.
Go about 10 miles over hill and dale. Make your last cell phone call.
You'll enter the "town" of Lagoda. Make sure you sing "Welcome to Lagoda. La-g-o-go-go-da" to the tune of "Lola".
There will be a little RV park on your right.
200 feet after the sign that says: "200 feet entrance to East Park Reservoir" is the entrance to East Park Reservoir.
I measured it. It's exactly 200 feet.
Go into the park. Read all the signs. Drive slow, don't kick up dust. Don't go left. There are a bunch of little camping places to the left. Stay on the main road. We’ll be in one of those little camping places. I’ll have signs posted that say “Camp Tipsy”. My phone works there, a little. Texting totally works. Phone is sketchy. We don’t have a reservation, it’s first come first serve. We’ll hold space for people, but there is plenty of room.
There is no water, but we have a generator. There is no amplified sound, so bring a ukulele. We have a kitchen and tons of basics. Ritual is providing coffee and paddleboats. There is a BBQ. We have a table that 50 people can sit at.
If you have any Burning Man LED lights or whatever they are called please bring them to share. I want to light the boats at night and stuff. If you have any paddles
or life vests, bring 'em, we're short.
We're short and we need some paddles and some life jackets.
We will be blessed by an appearance by the Jascha Eiphram Floating Library performing a set at sunset on Saturday night. It's a 5 piece string quartet that will perform for the setting sun and dinner. That'll be awesome...
Bring ice!!! For you and to share!! Dogs are cool, kids are great, bring a bike... BYOB for the floating bar (we built a floating bar, bitches!!!!!) , and some to share. Bring veggies, meat, crackers, cheese, marshmallows, candy, a blender, ice cream and a towel. Sunblock. People magazine. Fishing pole. Firewood. Beer. We're out of beer already and we havn't even got there yet...
We have a shade structure, but if you have one that would be a good thing to bring…
There's sketchy cell service and no WiFi. That girl your flirting with on Myspace is a guy anyway. Dude.
There are like 60 people or so confirmed. Last time there were like 80. I’m guessing that we’ll have like 50 or so. Not that it matters. It’d be fun if you were there alone…
Here is the rideshare board...

OUR LAST SHOW O F T H E S E A S O N
Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.
--Mark 6:22
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: San Francisco (April 28th) – The Ask Dr. Hal! Show, after eight memorable performances, has come to its last episode of the present run. The remaining time to experience the long-running night club stage sensation has dwindled to a single remaining opportunity to come see our concluding and greatest production-- and behold a KrOB “edit” which nicely sums up his showcasing of all things monstrous and alien. KrOB, that reclusive and adroit manipulator of iconic vignettes mined from deep veins of cryptic popular culture, now lifts one corner of the veil to reveal the ultimate horror of the full-bore, chaotic Monster Apocalypse as a special feature for our audience. Intrigued? Our show is broadcast every Wednesday night on Pirate Cat Radio (84.9 FM on your radio dial) from 10:00 to Midnight (and as a podcast whenever you want), but if you want to see, as opposed to just hear this incredible, horrible soul-freezing featurette, a staple of the oft celebrated and award-winning (in the Bay Guardian and Playboy Online), Ask Dr. Hal! show, you really owe it to yourself to toddle on down to 12 Galaxies, 2565 Mission St. near 22nd. Yes, just as in the days of the late, great Odeon Bar, the tradition of Monster Attacks continues to the very end, gleefully presented by the one and only KrOB. As in previous shows, every effort is being made to preserve those elements which have so often proven themselves in the arena of public attendance. You better believe it. But, starting off…
FRANK CHU to OPEN SHOW with VIGOROUS, VACUOUS VERBOSITY!
What’s supposed to happen is that before every show, by special arrangement, perennial pest/holy man Frank Chu, protest sign grasped firmly in hand, the man after whose opaque rantings the 12 Galaxies night club itself is named, will ascend the stage and (figuratively speaking) shout his barbaric yawp, in the famous phrase. And if he shows up, you can absolutely depend on Frank to deliver-- deliver a rapid-fire, curiously unimpassioned, incomprehensible bromide, that is. This diatribe mentions various members of the U.S.Govt. and beings from numerous other worlds as members of a vast, over-arching Conspiracy. But could he be right? Maybe it’s all just too big to grasp. At any rate, he’s often, of late, been a no-show. Will he be present for this, the last of these shows? It’s all in the lap of the Gods. Come see (and hear) for yourself…
CHICKEN JOHN'S MONOLOGUE SETS the SCENE!
Chicken John doesn’t pull his punches. The charismatic former San Francisco Mayoral candidate (and future Supervisoral candidate), having developed his powers of unscripted improvisation during far-flung junkets in Fiji and mysterious, if tormented Tibet, starts us raucously rolling as he shares his thoughts at the beginning of every show, putting the crowd in a receptive mood, choosing his musings on life, strife, love, talk thereof, politics, parlor tricks and the true meaning of “greening.” And then…
PETE GOLDIE presents: MYSTERIES of UNKNOWN WORLDS!
Pete Goldie, a scientific Colossus, has his head in the clouds, even beyond them in the endless reaches of space --but his feet are planted firmly on the ground. Not an Astrologer, but an Astronomer (don’t let Chicken John pull your leg), he is an eager auditor of the evolution, physics, chemistry, meteorology, and motion of extraterrestrial objects & planetary bodies, as well as the formation and development of the universe itself. Did you know top N.A.S.A. scientists often attend our show (and/or listen to the live broadcast on Pirate Cat Radio, 87.9FM)? It's true! Each of our shows traditionally begins with Pete’s segment: an illustrated recap of the actual latest findings of planetary Astronomy. But he’s, paradoxically, a down-to-earth kind of guy, who can tell you everything about the tiles on the Space Shuttle-- and on your bathroom floor! Accompanied by his beloved, dangling model of the far-roving Cassini-Huygens Probe, Pete will zoom us (metaphorically) to (really) far-ranging land-and-space-scapes of outer Solar System Real Estate. The Cassini spacecraft, sports fans, is the first to explore the Saturnian system of rings and moons from orbit around that remote, giant gas planet. Pete’s been relaying its findings since Cassini entered orbit on June 30th, 2004-- and immediately started to send him back intriguing images and data. The European Space Agency (ESA)'s Huygens Probe dove down, down into Titan's thick atmosphere in January, 2005. The sophisticated instruments on both spacecraft are providing Pete (and our Ask Dr. Hal! audience) with vital data and the best views ever of this mysterious, vast region of our Solar System. So, remember when you view Pete’s monofilament-lofted model, lovingly crafted by Paul Pot, that the real Cassini-Huygens is an international collaboration between three space agencies. Seventeen nations contributed to building this spacecraft. The Cassini orbiter was built and managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, while the Huygens probe was built by the European Space Agency. And the Italian Space Agency provided Cassini's high-gain communication antenna. In addition to Pete, more than 250 scientists worldwide are studying the data streaming back from Saturn on a daily basis. Just part of our Show (a part which was the longest it’s ever been last time as Pete evinced unusual stamina). HEY KIDS! Special Appearance by Fozzmo the Clown! As for Kogar the Gorilla, we make no promises here that we can count on the participation of that “Primate Prima Donna.” From all indications, the well-known thespian simian has probably made his last knuckle-walking bow on our 12 Galaxies stage.
DAVID CAPURRO EXPERTLY EXTRACTS RELEVANCY from the COMPUTER KEYBOARD
Our very own dementedly devoted David Capurro, in his alternate identity as Yo-Yo Pro, has performed in multiple venues, Now "Cappy" vivaciously vivifies our Show with a kind of visual, Virtual yo-yo-ing: even as Dr. Hal is speaking, David's dexterous digits flash across his keyboard-- and, Wow! A confirming (or at least, ideally, congruent) image appears on the screen! (Usually, filthy, but that’s showbiz.) SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: for our final performance, David has promised he will whip out his Yo-Yo and treat everyone to an exhibition of Yo-Yo mastery which will be long remembered ever after…
“DR.” HAL: MERETRICIOUS MOUNTEBANK with QUESTIONABLE QUALIFICATIONS-- or DIVINELY INSPIRED, OROTUND ORACLE?
Not for us to say. Questions answered consultations available. No refunds. As for the legitimacy of his Doctoral credentials, the Head of Dr. Hal’s Order (the Church of the SubGenius), none other than the Most Exalted Reverend Ivan Stang himself, did confer upon him, on Wednesday the 2nd of April 2008, upon his completion of the Protracted Syllabus of SubGenius Studies, the Degree of DOKTOR OF DIVINITY in the name of the Dobbstown Liberty College of Love. That should settle it.
KrOB KREATES final MONSTER ATTACK CLIP for the AGES!
KrOB on the JOB-- KrOB's krazy kut-up kinema kompels kontentment! Last week, just as advertised, we beheld the onslaught of the Living Skeleton, a tautology given life if not made flesh. In a whirling, clashing display of supernal swordsmanship, the dead faced off against the living. This time we leave the Realm of Legend for an anxious time more closely related to our own, where monsters dwell and where creatures roam. An unnerving incursion into a terrifyingly uncertain scene, where hapless humans find their lives as cheap as those of the so-called lower orders, and pragmatic predators operate with draconian directness. Cool, eh? No, it just wouldn't be the Ask Dr. Hal! show without the inclusion of this proven popular attraction, would it? Educational and scientific, the great KrOB's notorious "edits"on the Giant Screen, in dynamic, full-fidelity KrOB Sound™ will again comprise a memorable multi-media experience. Just keep him away from that Kn/rob Creek bottle he’ll do just fine.
And, really, we are prompted to ask, at what other night club show could you behold such a thing? Think about it. Just make time to be there no later than Nine PM (Chicken insists) Monday night at 12 Galaxies, 2565 Mission St. near 22nd.
SOCIAL NOTES
Ask Dr. Hal! was considerably enlivened by a surprise performance from the folks who brought you the Life-Size Game of Mousetrap at Burning Man and numerous other venues, thanks to mastermind manly Mark Perez & his mousetrap Myrmidons. An all-mouse-related, torrid Terpsichorean treat for the 12G audience employing elaborate props of giant cheeses provided a break from the usual question-&-answer, as slinky Spy & ravishing Rose, beauties of Burlesque, enacted a stylized synchronous dance routine during which the two lovely girls’ scanty costumes somehow became detached and fell to the floor, revealing their well-rounded charms to the delighted & appreciative crowd. From on stage we had an exceptionally good, close view of these goings on. Then, something for the ladies, as a brigade of Chippendale’s-style junkyard hunks invaded the stage. Pounding, pulsating Disco music blasted, the underdressed louts & oafs pranced and posed in multiple positions, smirking, rotating their hips & flexing their musculature as panicked homophobes fled in all directions… you never know what’ll be unleashed at one of our productions… We didn’t expect it… One surprise of the eve was the unexpected absence of Ringmonster & Show-host chucklin’ Chicken John. The Yeoman of the Showmen contracted a last-minute case of Epizootis & became too ill to perform. Luckily, Pirate Cat Radio’s own jaunty John Hell became available to fill Chick’s brogans -remarkable coincidence –-as his own show at the station was cancelled. Mr. Hell has trod the boards with us before, under sim’lar circumstances, & we look forward pretty soon this year to a couple of iterations as Color Commentators for the Power Tool Drag Races (plug-ola!), 1st at the upcoming Maker Faire on May 3rd at the San Mateo Fairgrounds, then at good old Ace International Speedway this May 17th & 18th in San Fran-sissy-co. Another no-show was frantic Frank Chu, last seen hobnobbing on the Sassiety Page in the S.F. Chronicle w/ the so-called (ugh) “Swells.” Wottsamatta, Frankie, ain’t we good enough for you no more…? But we soldiered on… Despite running out of Question Slips early on (people wrote on bus transfers & napkins) we answered the queries of a good-sized crowd, bouncing back from our (comparative) attendance slump of last wk. & featuring such familiar fan faces as masterful Moss, radiant Rhiannon Charisse of Dark Room Theatre fame, & power couple heavenly Hallie McConlogue & comely Corey McGuire. Here’s more plug-ola: Dr. Hal will be marrying the two lovebirds at an outdoor public ceremony according to the principles of the Church of the SubGenius & the affiliated Universal Life Church, coming up soon at, again, the Maker Faire @ the San Mateo Fairgrounds. All audience members of the Ask Dr. Hal! Show are invited to attend, 2:30 Sunday May 4th as the vows are solemnized on the Balcony of the Neverwas Haul, the coolest of all Art Cars (since a rampaging Republican terrorist torched the land-going Galleon La Contessa). The Haul, a steam-powered Victorian house on wheels created by “Satan” Shannon O’Hare & kinky Kimric Smythe among others, will be newly re-fitted and be looking better than ever. “Maker Faire is backing this whole thing, this crazy idea to the hilt,” enthuses hypostatic Hallie. “The marketing department loved the whole crazy story of our romance and how Corey won my heart. They gave us 100 free tickets. It also looks like there will be lots of media coverage. We also get to fire off the Life-Sized Mousetrap.” Love is in the air. So B there or B square, folks... Jewel-like Janay Growden, modest Mable Syrup, torrid Terri with squeeze Sherilyn Connelly, and comely Carinna, who lately took the waters with us at Delight’s Hot Springs on a recent Chicken John Bus Trip to the Mojave Desert were all on hand for our penultimate p’formance. So was jocund Josh the Orangebox Man, who we won’t be seeing again for at least a while - he’s also off for a life of wedded bliss, w/ fiancée sizzling Sarah Santos… Someone put a copy of Mr. Opp, a novel by Alice Hegan Rice, author of the immortal Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch, on my desk. Thanx, Somebody… And thanx to all who have been supporting us with weekly attendance. We hope to reward you with a last show to die for (tho’ that shouldn’t be, strictly speaking, necessary)…
ASK DR. HAL! EXCLUSIVE! GAGS! GROANS! GOOF-OFFS! GIRLS! GIGGLES! GRANDIOSE GRANDILOQUENCE! GALACTIC ASTRONOMY! DON’T MISS IT! OUR LAST SHOW BEFORE OCTOBER!

Camping trip/fundraiser for summer boat project April 29th-May 8th
Camp Tipsy … on and around the weekend of May 3rd… fun camping trip on a lake with boats and performance and art installations.OK. I need to catch up. It’s all happening kinda quick… so it’s hard to report on something when your already doing the next thing. But there is this big project that I’m working on and I wanna talk about it. There was an idea that was put forward that I signed on to. To build a raft out of foam and wood. Send it down the Mississippi with a bunch of idiots. I committed to do the propulsion system. The end of the story is that it went from Minniappleass to St. Louie, roughly. It took 2 years to traverse that 750 miles. In all, 150 people traveled on the craft. Sometimes as many as 40 at a time. That craft is now gone. The Mississippi won. This summer we are doing it again. But this time, it’s the Hudson. Starting upstate NY with a destination of Long Island City with 7 homemade and/or modified boats and/or rafts. Swoon does the art. For propulsion, we pull motors out of cars and run them on bullshit: bio-fuel or worse. Solar powered electric canoes. It’s all absurd but actually kinda techy. None of it’s easy. You think building at Burning Man is hard, try building on water. You drop the tool, it’s gone. Boats catch fire. Bottom out. Weather. Rough conditions. No where to park. Toilets. Rain. Breakdowns: Mechanical or mental. Staph. Cooking for 25 people. No refrigeration. Rednecks. Alligators. OK, there are no alligators. But all the other stuff. A boat trip ‘ll make a man outta ya.
I am doing a camping trip on and around the weekend of May 3rd in a location about 2/12 hours from San Francisco. The location is on a beautiful lake. We have the site from Tuesday the 29th to Thursday the 8th. There is a very, very limited number of people who can go. A few hundred at most. But it’s going to be really great. We have all the propulsion systems here, in my shop. We are building 3 test crafts this very week (at NIMBY, if ya wanna come help). I’m calling the campout Camp Tipsy because it’s cute. Camp Tipsy will have TONS of entertainment and stuff, but it will also have a bunch of boats. It’s a boat thing. Bring a boat or borrow one of ours. We are going to do a big communal kitchen. It’s really warm there, and really pristine. It’s a great nature moment.
Camp Tipsy is a fundraising device for the project in NY this summer. All the proceeds collected will go to the SUPER EXPENSIVE transportation of the propulsion systems. A project like this costs well over a hundred thousand dollars, and it’s all done with donations. Our fundraising goal is $22,000. Ouch. So we are asking for donations of (gulp) $100. Yea, it’s kinda a lot. But it’s all real. And it’s totally worth it. I’ve been pouring time and effort into this event. I might be crazy out of
We have a big kitchen that goes under a big tent. It’s all communal. Kinda. They’ll be meal time capers and nightly instigators of foods, but more anarchy then democracy. All run by Food Hacking master Chef Mark Powell. The kitchen will have all the basics and stuff. More on that later.
Every night we have a few feature performers. Mellow, fun, cool campfire music. And such.
Floating art. Boats. Swimming. Dogs. Kids. Building stuff. Sailing. Biking.
It’s all sounding too wholesome. But after all, wholesome is the new decadence.
The trip is not about the money, but a TON of effort is going into it. Please pay the hundred bucks (or more if you can afford it). If you are absolutely flat busted broke and just have to go we can work something out… but if I don’t hit my fundraising number I can’t go to NYC. $22G is a ton of money. If 220 people pay $100 for this camping trip, I’ll probably make like $14g or so. It’s all so expensive. You have to RSVP, I’ll put you on another mailing list specifily for this event. You must pay in advance to hold your spot and you must say which days you would like to be there. I am not supposed to have more than 200 people, the place is pristine and they wanna keep it that way. So I am trying to be organized.
Please invite people!!!!! But lets start with friends and friends of friends first. Please do not post this to lists yet. Lets hand pick the people we wanna camp with. There is a reason I have waited to give the dates… I don’t want to disappoint people. We DEFINATLY want this to go well so we can return. I’d love to do Camp Tipsy every year.
You confirm with PayPal: chickenjohn@chicknejohn.com
I've already paid for the spot and stuff. It's ours.
The spot is like 2 ½ hours north of SF. I won’t tell you where it is until later. It’s super warm there. It’s not in the mountains. It’s beautiful. The lake is awesome. You can ride bikes and stuff.
I just bough 4 paddle boats.
There is so much more information to give, but for now lets just see how this works.
More info on the Mississippi boat at missrockaway.org
In or around L.A.? Come to the Amargosa Opera House this Saturday!!!!!!
Marta Beckett traveled through Death Valley Junction in the mid 60's. There is an old opera house there. She fell in love with it. She bought it. Marta then became the lone ballerina of the Amargosa Valley. She painted an audience on the walls because no one came to the shows. All that's changed now. The place is sold out packed every week. Marta is in her 90's. The show is stunning. I'm doing a bus trip from SF. The bus is totally full. But I have some extra tickets so some people can drive out from LA. We are camping at a hot springs nearby.This is an awesome trip. I can not reccomend it enough. If you know cool people in LA, please forward this to them. You can contact me
chickenjohn@chickenjohn.com
Amargosa Opera House Excursion April 12th... drive out from LA...
I'm doing a bus trip to the Amargosa Opera House on the 12th of April. I'm comming from SF. I've got 22 extra tickets, so people from LA can come drive out and see the show, and I rented an entire campground. You can drive out, see the show and camp out at the hot springs campground thing. The Amargosa Opera house is an amazing place. Marta Becktett is like 90 years old and has been doing the same show for 40 years. Contact me for more info.
Tonight, at the Chez Poulet 8PM,, Baby Dee!!!! VD show with special guests....
So. The set that Jascha and Claire built for the film shoot here is so stunning and absurd, we had to put a show together around it. My dear old friend Baby Dee called me and told me she was coming to town with a band and if I wanted to book her show. So I asked Nieves if she was in the mood to do some cooking and what we came up with is an evening of dinner theatre in a bizarre cave that used to be my living room. The food is things that can be eaten with your fingers, served in a sit down style lounge-a-thon of brilliant talent.
Baby Dee is a Transgender Harpist, accordion player, pianist and singer. She is here with a full band. She has been a constant in my life since we toured together in the circus in 1996, the magical year where everything worked. She had lead an amazing life. I can’t begin to describe the bravery and comedy and joy that exudes from this mop-topped Irish belle. She is a delight to behold, and that she has chosen us to spend the day we have set aside to celebrate love, romance and passion with is a rare measure or respect.
Nieves will make delightful bites and magic potions….
Meredith Axlerod will delight us with her ukulele, her unique voice and her impeccable edict.
Jessie, the lovely accordian player who paid ode to Dammit on her birthday, will play some of her songs. Her stage name is "Roadkill". How silly.
Benjamin Perkins Burke will bring all things together in our little magical cave for the evening.
More guests and stuff, maybe even a puppet show. Did I mention the entire space in now a friggin' cave?
We are making dinner for you and yours on Valentines day in a magical cave of bullshit and splendor. The people that have been comming to events off my list have been an absolute pleasure to do stuff with. Please come and spend VD with us and Baby Dee. You will NOT be disappointed.
Our show begins promptly at 8:00PM on Thursday evening Febuary 14th. You will remove your shoes. The dinner and the show occur contemperaniously, and there are enough viddles and entertainment to last 2 hours. At 10:00 you are free to stay for an hour or so, but it is a school night…
Price for the dinner is $20 per person and an additional $10 for the show to pay the talent. There is seating for dinner people and seating for show people. You are welcome to come for just the show at 8 and just give $10 to the talent. All the money goes to Dee.
Please rsvp as we have limited capacity.
Circus show tonight, Dammit the Wonderdogs' 18th birthday...
If you are not planning on attending the Circus REdickuless show this very evening at 12 Galaxies (10:00, $10)... you may be missing out on something special. Special olympic, that is.....Here is our show:
Puppets
Trapeze with Mirium
The man eating chicken
The storkman
Chuckles the Kaos Klown (From LA!!!!) and her dancing Jo Jo Rats
Jarico Reese magic show (the Cyclecide guy)
Chicken John doing his oracular tubulation... (up his nose, out somewhere else)
The Speedmetal Tapdance
Oigu Raidio
Igor Ignitor
The Reverse Stripper (Miss Fountain)
Herbie Hatman, the worlds worst escape artist
The lovely Jessy wrote Dammit Dog a birthday song and performs it on her accordian
Jascha Eiphram
Bruce XXX, an actual native american
Otto the Aqua Boy
An actual pregnant woman
The Sea Monkey Tamer
And of course Dammit the Amazing Wonder Dog. She Turns 18 this month, and this is her party. I've already received more bones than a dog should rightfully have...
Dammit the Amazing Wonderdog will turn (gulp) 18 years old.
She had a sort of stroke last August, and is doing OK. We think she is blind in one eye, deaf in one ear and she is a little off balance. But in good spirits and happy and romping and doing all the dog things. So for what will likely be the last time, The Circus Redickuless will take the stage at 12 Galaxies. That's right, a bunch of the old circus folk are going to do some of the old acts. A few other people will pinch hit for others who are not around. This will likely be your only opportunity to see all the acts that you have heard about but thought too stupid to ever actually see. The idea of the circus was no content as the content. It's a little confusing but we are carneys, after all. The show will be Dammit's final performance and don't expect too much. We started a circus 14 years ago. Who would have known?
see ya tonight...
Dammit turns 18 this Friday at 12 Galaxies...
Who knew dogs lived this long?The entire Circus REdickuless troupe is comming to do a show so Dammit can perform again... this Friday. See all the acts from the show that took the country by storm!!!! Jarico will do his famous magic act, Chuckles the Kaos Klown will dance with her rats, rapping Mad Cows, Vegan Geeks, Temperaraly Tattooed men and those are just the good acts... Show starts at 10, it's $10 and it's ton of fun.
See ya there!!!
CHICKEN: New Years Eve plan for me and mine...
So. New Years Eve is upon us. Amnesia booked a sold out show for 1,500 people. Only 100 can fit. Sea of Dreams is a giant wooden arc for cool animals only. 12 G's is milking hippies. What are we gonna do?Chez Poulet is having dinner and a show. Please arrive at 7:30-8:30 if you would like to eat with us. We have booked some fun stuff for a party at 10:00, with Loop! Station being the ringer-inner of the clink the glasses with the 12 bongs to let go of the weirdest year in quite a while. There is a slew of other bullshit in the entertainment department including Krob doing his patented multi-thingy and we could even get theatrical. I'd like to also say Sean Hayes, but won't say why I would say that. I just say that sometimes.
Dinner by itself is $15.
Show by itself is $15.
Stay for the whole night for $25.
Please RSVP, because we are a small space… but especially if you wanna eat with us so we know how much to make.

Please feel free to pass this along to other wonderful people.
And if we don't see you, I'd like to impart a pearl of wisdom that was vomited on me the other evening:
