Good and Evil Meet for a Dance Party

Ok. If you don't know about the Superheros and Villains Party... what can I say except. I could use some help setting up today. Come around 4 pm and you too can say you hosted half of Jersey City. As well other volunteer spots : working the door with Neil "Eggs" McCoy for an hour and then every one's favorite. Cleaning up the next day. I am looking for a boy/girl wonder to help clean up all night, this is for someone who plans to stay sober so don't jump on it unless you can commit to some sobriety.

Just a couple of notes about tonight's party. $5 for ladies and those in costume. $10 guys w/o capes. Come in mixed comping and as always leave any bad vibes, bad friends and bad asses at home. If you don't want to pay don't plan to stay. The party this year is actually expanded into two apartments on my floor. Next door, we debut the Yin/Yang Lounge with an additional bathroom and a premium liquor cash bar. In my apartment,  there will be the usual supply canned beer, methodically mixed superhero and villain drinks and wine.

There are coat checks, bowling lockers in both rooms, and additional lockers by the front door to store stuff. Just don't loose your keys. Ok lets have a fun time tonight. I look forward to this event every year.

Here's the rest on a quick note.

Life is a Noise Cabaret Old Chumms

Thank you to everyone involved with the Ghost of Uncle Joe's Halloween Fundraiser last Saturday. We raised $4,000 for the Historic Jersey City and Harsimus Cemetery. Needless to say, the Cemetery's Board was very impressed and is looking forward to next's year event already. Maybe we should push up some daisies come spring ?

If dressing up is your bag of tricks, get your costumes in the ready for our annual apartment party on Friday November 26th (date corrected from earlier post - don't loose your sh!t please) . This year we reprise The Superheroes and Villain Party . This annual event is precluded by my college posse's, the Derelict Garden Tool's 20th Annual Pagan Thanksgiving Dinner on Monday November 22nd in Montclair.

I am on my way out to New Brunswick to catch my kids, Thomas Francis Takes His Chances play at the Court Tavern. I know this is short notice, so we also have a show planned for this Saturday in a loft space in Newark. The kids, play with Luna Vroum who is currently touring through the United States with several musicians performing “Le Forêt du Moyen” (the Middle Forest), an original noise cabaret fairy tale. In addition to Chlöe Mandel, Luna Vroum’s “Forêt du Moyen” includes Andy March of Youth Club Records, Alley Dennig of SHV, and Corey Allan Hinchey and Jacques Mindreau of Krasnogorsk. The space is about 10-15 walk from the PATH in Newark, so catch a cab or just walk down Route 21 McCarter Highway until you get to 407 Mulberry. Doors are at 9pm. $7 beer included. Zed Never at 10 pm. Luna Vroum at 11 pm, TFTHC at midnight. As a bonus we are throwing in a FREE HOUR for everyone. Redeemable at 2am, so do everything you may regret between 1 am and 2 am.

On the JC side Saturday Night. DJ's Bearheist and Caligula will save daylight at the White Star. Jessie says he's breaking out the laser discs for this one. At Luckys. Sean Kiley, last Saturday's Jeff Mangum of Neutral Milk Hotel fame spins with Leonard Smalls. JC's Olde Ghost plays the Lamp Post along with Those Mockingbirds for the debut show of a new RYE COALITION Outfit ----- Cold Fur

.
Next Friday,  John Fesken's Ehullek Tragedies opens at 58.  The event will be without any live music performance as will future not city sponsored events until we move forward and get 58 rezoned. On Tuesday November 16th we are beginning 58's Longevity Campaign with a volunteer meeting to get our supporters invovled with applying for a zoning variance. Oh yeah this is going to be fun :)
