Last year, as I am sure you all recall, my kid sister’s birthday takeover was a great success. She most appropriately drank pink things at a punk show, and the night ended dramatically with her falling out of a van. No worries for those of you that were not there, the van was nearly at a full stop when she fell out, she was NOT operating it, and truth be told she falls down a lot. I must admit, that it was not however as successful as her first (or was it her second?) 21st birthday party in Savannah when every bartender in town bought her a shot (yes, they were pink) which led to a 48 hour bed stay and countless excuses to our dear mother about why the kid could not be reached for comment. Needless to say, I am psyched for this Saturday. True to form, the kid (also known as “Young Jedi Jess,” but formerly referred to as “Fancy”) decided (unbeknownst to her big sister / booking agent and promoter extraordinaire) to throw herself a little soiree this Saturday Feb 6th at The Arizona Pub. Word on the street is that friend (and co-conspirator) DJ Black Dominoes will be there. Takeover 27! Come out heroes wherever you are!!! @GlowStickGirls will be there! She has something on the invite about losing her panties and is asking that everyone bring her a pair. Kids these days!
P.S., I am thoroughly unsatisfied with the poster she whipped up, so I have remade last year’s classic into something simply fantastic. Click on it to rsvp via facebook!
