Get Wacky VII: The Roast

We have survived our half-year birthday party and are all the way back, live and direct once again. Saturday, August 6th 9-2 at the General Store.

To celebrate our newfound maturity Get Wacky is now on the wagon. If you want to get slizzered you're gonna' have to bring your own.

The theme for The Roast is Dress as your favorite foliage or grillable object.

Put some fucking thought into it this time and you will be rewarded- the first ever Get Wacky Costume Fashion Show goes down at Midnight- thirty. Be there with the best you got to wear.

In the socialist tradition the show will be judged by you an yours and the winners will be rewarded with all sorts of weird crap and the admiration of the masses.

It's $5 to get in $3 in your foliage finery and in addition to sweat stains we are now providing limited edition Get Wacky merchandise.

You want it you need it.

Guest DJ to be announced with fanfare shortly.

Citizens wishing to further the Get Wacky cause can help us all out by volunteering for door duty. If you have what it takes drop us an e-line.

If you take photos and upload them to the Get Wacky VII Flickr Pool you will be awarded a free admission to Get Wacky VIII. So you can work for free.
