ok, so those who don't know, i've joined the extra-action marching band. you
know, the freaky marching band with the 40-foot spanish galleon on the playa?
the freaks who terrorize taquerias, do slutty dance routines with flags, and
have carefully attached beer/cup holders to drums and sousaphones?
we're going on tour. god help us. we've got new music (yay!), new flag team
routines (we're thinking of renaming them the extra-action firing squad. you'll
see why), and a lot of momentum towards tour. we're going to mardi gras in new
orleans, and stopping back in austin, el paso, tuscon, las vegas (The Beach!)
and los angeles. someone bought a smelly, ancient bus, and they/we have Big
Plans(tm) to modify this into our home for 2 weeks. *and* we have no budget. yay!
jonathan (our lovely sousaphonist / chef) posted the above list of needs/desires
to craigslist. if anyone can help with things from that list, we'd be extremely
grateful. we also take donations of cash, booze, food, lumber, fabric,
time/labor, prayers, and incredulous laughing/pointing/staring.
we supposedly have a benefit show next thursday. somewhere. i'll send the info
out when we have it. i think some of us are also going to join extreme elvis
for a show on the 22nd, (at galia?) which is a benefit for him, not us, but
might give you a preview of the new material. it's fun(tm).
thank you, xxxx, and let me know if you have the means and/or desire to help us
out. the band promises to find some way to repay you. (wink wink)
feel free to pass on to potentially generous souls.
see you soon,
xx
