My birthday party. Disco Volante. 347 14th Street, Oakland, CA 94612. 9pm. No cover.

Details:
In one week, I will be celebrating my 3 trillionth, 162 billionth mile around the sun. Sunday will mark my 34th year working on this project! Amazing!

So to commemorate this occasion, as well as to commemorate the fact that it is, indeed, the second Sunday evening of the month, I will be playing the washboard, and the one and only Shingle, so that I might add a touch of beautiful cacophony and off key croonery to the wonderful sounds of Thee Hobo Gobbelins!

What I would ultimately love to get for my birthday is you! So come get yourself drunk* (that I may take advantage of you in your stupor**) and we can all sing and dance and make merriment together!

So please, come and join me in making this a night to regret not remembering! Bring a friend! Bring two friends! Bring ALL of your friends and we can take this party out into the streets! (I hear that there's plenty of room to party in Frank Ogawa plaza, and that's only two blocks away!)


*(Offer does not apply to vehicular operators or those in pursuit of a life of sobriety, though your attendance at the party is still strongly encouraged.)
**(Offer does not apply to blood relatives, though your attendance at the party is still strongly encouraged.)

Why do you always have to do these things so far away? There are other parts of California, you know. Like the southern part. Selfish.

It's my birthday and I'll be a selfish prick if I want.

Also, this just in: Our featured guests this week will be Vagabondage. Sort of a goth/gypsy/punk kinda deal, but heavier on the goth/gypsy part.

And Jerk Church. Hard drinkin sarcastic sing alongs of acoustically revamped cover tunes. Pretty much always a good time.

Well, then a Happy Upcoming Birthday, you 7 foot tall selfish prick.

Thanks, jerk!

Sounds fun! I may be gone at that time, but if I'm around I'll see you there. Happy Birthday! Congrats on not dying!

I will try to make this, time to add a reminder to the phone calendar...

So you're a year older, but Are you still alive, Shit?

Mission accomplished. Good meeting you and Stile in the flesh. Still have to explain fantastically drunken state to the missus. Wish me luck.

That was awesome.

Still alive as an organism, but if you were to zoom in on my brain cells, they would tell a different story.
I think I drank away part of my childhood last night.
And yes indeed, that was a good fun time. Nice to meet y'all in person!
