THANK YOU! + Crowd Pics and Clips from the Death Match

BIG THANKS to the BIG CROWD that took over Z Space Saturday night. Judging by the chanting, the laughs and the cheering, everyone was just as amped as we all were to do the show. We had a great time and wanted to thank everyone for coming out and making local art a priority in their lives. Below are some videos and pictures taken throughout the night – thanks to Vince Media for most of the shots – and thank to everyone who made it out!

Variety Show Death Match II is Gonna Be Killer

We’ve been having a pretty good time preparing for Variety Show Death Match II: Pope Caesar’s Revenge (to which you can get tickets here). First off, we ordered a bunch of foam middle fingers for the show and that is always fun. Here’s company member Dave Burke being very stoked when they arrived:

We also get really excited whenever our name goes up on a marquee. I think it makes us feel important, or at least more important than we really are (which is not very important):

And we got to hang out with Hoodslam, which, if you’ve never done, we highly recommend. They do things like this:

And generally, we’ve been super into hating on Pope Caesar. He’s a dick. And the more we get to tease about shit like not being on the marquee, the more his ego suffers, which, for a guy who refers to himself as “the ultimate combination of church and state,” is definitely a good thing.

All in all, we’re pretty stoked for this Saturday. Big thanks to Z Space for hosting us – it’s a big, nice, awesome theater and we’ve been wanting to perform there for years. And big thanks to all the brave entertainers who are putting up their work at the highest stakes – we’re confident everyone’s gonna be killer.
