When our friends at St. George Spirits (makers of Hangar One Vodka) in Alameda invited us to play at their annual holiday party, we said, "Are you sure?" But then we said, "yes." This gig will be a little different – it's an open house, so there's food, booze and we'll be playing a lot of covers, mostly from that most glittery of decades, the 1980s. There will be Spandex.
The open house takes place from 1 - 6 p.m. this Sat., Nov. 21 at the distillery, though we don't play until about 3:30 p.m. (guitarist John Clarke will play before us). Tickets are $40 in advance or $50 at the door (call the number below for tickets) and will be worth every penny.
We've got a couple of gigs coming up in December that you won't want to miss, either: Elbo Room Dec. 2 and Dec. 9 at Great American Music Hall. More about those in a bit. Also some photos from our recording sessions in Sacramento, and more exciting surprises (hint: Steve naked).
Sat. Nov. 21, 2009 from 1-6 p.m.
