QOM Bday show is coming up (one day after my bday and one day before tour)

September 12: QOM Celebrates 4th Birthday with VAGABONDAGE

By sarahdopp on Sep 3, 2008 in Featured, Shows

The Queer Open Mic is turning FOUR!  That’s right, we’ve survived our rambunctious touch-everything-and-scream-like-we’re-on-fire toddler years, and are transforming full-throttle into precocious loud-mouth know-it-alls.  But first, let’s have a birthday party!  And how better to celebrate than to have Vagabondage — a band spearheaded by our venue’s founder Cindy Emch — as our feature?

About Vagabondage

Walking the dirty streets of the big city and the farm towns, Vagabondage sings you tales of lonely alleyways, late night busrides and unfortunate incidents with spicy spicy food. Comprised of a poet, an actor, a storyteller, a ham, a vaudevillian, an accordion player, two guitar players, a kazoo player, and two singers, this duo will sing songs to make you laugh, cry, and raise your glass and sing along.

Yep!  Ain’t no doubt, this night’s gonna make San Francisco one proud momma of an open mic.

So bring your cupcakes and raise your glass!

tonight was amazing muy_macha stirfry and too much wine and far too much republicans and top model and now i am locked away alone setting up the set list for tour so i can start the rehearsing in earnest. work work work. music music music. top model was interesting. i was more interested in the way too charming train wreck speech that palin gave. she may lie through her teeth but positioning her as the caring capable mother of the republican party who is tough and resilient is working. and for the first time i heard a republican (palin) tell a joke well. she pulled it off. dems do not underestimate and please fucking gawd don't fall into the trap of attacking her family and her personal life - i have already had three hard core liberals i know tell me how they know her actions and policies are wrong but they totally sympathize with her for the attacks. this is a republican talking point. all vp noms are attacked. for all manner of things. let's keep the family out of it and nail her on the vast amounts of fucked up hypocirsy and not ok choices and pork barrelling and and and and that she has been a part of... hell.

meanwhile. isis is a super hot model but i like the girl who looks like kimora simmons the most.

meanwhile - i need to plan this damn set and stop having panic attacks.

meanwhile - i am completely excited about and scared to death of my bday which is in 8 days - fuck!
