Fits of Depression on May 31st

I'll be performing a live stockbroker-suicide-fashion-show radio drama at this event, May 31st at the Pussycat Lounge:




Lucas Lanthier (from Dances of Vice) will be co-hosting (along with Retch Dempsey and Jeremy James Thompson) a Depression-era nightclub night called "Fits of Depression", and it will be thoroughly Crash of '29-ish.

SEE the soup kitchen!
HEAR the '30s jazz!
SMELL the smoke from the flash cameras!
TASTE the acrid flavor of radio waves!
TOUCH the dime in your pocket and be glad you have it... unlike some poor bastards.

Dress code is "Down On Your Luck". Actual New York bums will be on hand to give financial advice on how to live cheap.

Additional sloganeering:

-It's your favorite Rock-Bottom Dollar Dance Party!
-You can meet people, but you can't make ends meet!
-Where a penny for your thoughts is too much!
-A social club for dime-store dames and chintzy chaps!
-A penny-pinching easy-speaking gathering, for loafers, slackers, layabouts & tramps.
-Today: Pussy Cat Lounge Tomorrow: Alley Cat Lounge
-Come dance "The Dollar Drop" it's the latest thing.

We welcome the Suicidal Sons of Wall Street, the Formerly Middle Class Mother's Assoc., the Veterans of Past Depressions, and all you homeless of the future!
