thehefnerI'm very pleased to announce that I have two more upcoming gigs for THE HEFNER MONOLOGUES!
Friday, November 30th at Norman James Theatre, Washington College, Chestertown MD.
--And--
Monday, December 10th, and Tuesday, December 11th at Hamilton Arts Center in Baltimore, MD.
Huge thanks to my wonderful producers at Zero Hour (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ortugatay and fishymcb particularly, but let me know if anyone else did major legwork here) for making all this happen.
I'm not sure what crowds to expect, particularly in the Baltimore gig, so if you're able to make it out either night, please please please do! It's kind of a dead season for theatre in December, but with proper promotion, that might just work in my favor (less competition and all).
So yeah, if you missed THE HEFNER MONOLOGUES at CapFringe this year, here's your chance to catch 'em again! In revised, improved format!
DC 101 played Oingo Boingo's "Dead Man's Party." I don't think I've ever heard Oingo Boingo on the radio before, and it was such a wonderful surprise. How is this band not popular? Short of the Beatles, I can't think of a single other band that has music for virtually any mood, any occasion. Just name a mood or style, and I'll give you an Oingo Boingo song that matches it!
So yeah, that was my highlight of the day. Which means it's all downhill from here. Because it's Wednesday, New Comics Day, and I'm at work. I haven't sat down once all day, the store is constantly packed, I'm working alone, and I have to poop like a motherfucker. HELP.

M.
I!
I'd come help, but I can't work in a comics store, because I'd start pulling crappy issues of Countdown out of people's hands and replacing them with issues of Moon Knight or 100 Bullets or something. Then I'd openly mock people who pretend to be experts on Spidey and try to defend Straczynski's work.

Oh my god, did you seen ESSENTIAL MOON KNIGHT vol. 2?! The art's even BETTER in black and white!

As for your brother...from Herakles to poo? Surely there's some epic meta statement there that should probably be best written by Cathy Acker or someone similar. Jesus.
Not so epic or meta, but I do smell a connection

Date: 2007-10-31 09:12 pm (UTC)Needs more metaphor. I'm just sayin'.

I cannot WAIT to hear your reaction to this. Wow.

Date: 2007-11-01 12:35 am (UTC)REALLY?
Re: Not so epic or meta, but I do smell a connection

One. Two. Donkey punch.

I'm planning on editing and revising it for at least a year or two before I can consider it "done," but I'd like your input in the meantime, especially since you generously offered. :)
