The End is Near
Two weeks left for Artomatic. It closes on Sunday, June 15.
Two weeks. Two weeks.Two weeks.Two weeks.Two weeks.Two weeks.Two weeks.Two weeks.
You've been - right? A couple of times, of course you have.
Last weekend was the party for the Peeps. And there was bellydancing. And fire outside. And a cardboard car race.
This weekend we've got Frank Warren from PostSecret in the house signing books, Tango on the dance stage, poetry of all types in the SpeakEasy lounge (including Russian), "Craigslist: The Musical" on the downstairs stage, Fire outdoors, and Spooky Movies in the Film room - just for starters.
Saturday begins with workshops galore, The Marketplace in the afternoon (come buy art!), bands all evening and night, Comedians and Open Mic Night in the SpeakEasy, Burlesque in the Cabaret - and the crazy wildness of the night will be on the 5th floor with the hip-hop dancers - The Street Dance All Stars Jam. They were at Artomatic two weekends ago and it was insane - probably 300 people on the floor, it must have been 15 degrees hotter due to the body heat and ~everybody~ was dancing - it was so cool. We had to kick them all out at 2am so we could clean up and go home, I think they would have gone all night long.
Then on Sunday I fall down from exhaustion and try to figure out how many cases of Red Bull I'm going to need to make it through one more week. Because while this weekend's calendar is packed you ain't seen nothin' till you've been to closing weekend. We plan on taking this thing out with a big BANG. Or huge Fire at least.

Oh, and the tattoo has healed quite nicely, thankyouverymuch, and I'm very happy with it. And now have to go back to the gym so I can confidently show it off. (You know, once Artomatic is over. Of course.)
