Monarch Music Swap, Saturday, January 23 @ Monarch Event Center

January 21st, 2010
Comments Off

Start cleaning out your records, cds, show posters, instruments, and other music-related items and bring them down to the Monarch Event Center on Saturday from 12-6 pm for the Monarch Music Swap.  The event is free and will include food and drink (I doubt those are free), a DJ, a raffle, and sweet music stuff to swap, buy, and sell.

If you’re going to sell things at the event, it looks like you have to reserve a table for $5 by emailing the Monarch.  I’m sure you’ll make that $5 back ten fold with the amount of stuff you’ll be swapping and selling.

Full Sail Yacht Rock Karaoke, Friday, January 15th @ the Highball

As you can see if you scroll down several posts to the last post about yachtlogginsmessinayacht rock karaoke, having such high, magical hopes for this event can be dangerous.  However, since the Highball is putting on this party, I’m going to risk it.  I’ve been assured that this yacht rock event will be authentic.  The song list is carefully whittled down to ensure only the best Hall & Oates and Christopher Cross springs from the lips of the karaoke participants.

If you love this genre like I do (well, few people love it like I do), you should come ready to sing your best Michael McDonald.  The festivities start at 11 pm at the wonderful Highball and there is no cover.  There may even be fruity drinks to round out the theme.

Now, get along and go practice those Christine McVie lyrics.

The Big Lebowski, Wednesday, January 6 @ Alamo Ritz

What’s better than The Big Lebowski?  That’s right, The Big Lebowski AND White Russian (or perhaps you prefer to call them “Caucasian”) drink specials at the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz.   In the last installment of the “High for the Holidays” series, the Drafthouse will be screening the Coen brothers movie of your dreams.  You know what’s even weirder than Julianne Moore’s character in this movie?  The fact that Tara Reid is in it.

Pop in your closest CCR tape and get there a little early.
