Anyone going to the non-free Devo?

Virginia Plain, Saturday, 21 June 2008 01:09 (sixteen years ago)

I think you're reading 'legend' a lot more narrowly than they are

gabbneb, Saturday, 21 June 2008 03:19 (sixteen years ago)

mookie i dare you to watch natalie dessay perform live and then make that statement.

tehresa, Saturday, 21 June 2008 03:21 (sixteen years ago)

not really summer "show" and not really free but i've got an extra comp: anyone want to see vertical rep's tales of hoffman @ red hook pier on sunday evening?

nightmare sussudio (tehresa), Thursday, 18 September 2008 02:17 (sixteen years ago)

i vaguely wanna see that, but my daytime plans probably prohibit it

gabbneb, Thursday, 18 September 2008 04:21 (sixteen years ago)

yeah my companion is out bc she has to do a bridal shower in westchester.

it's not til 8, but red hook is a bitch to get to on a sunday!

nightmare sussudio (tehresa), Thursday, 18 September 2008 04:55 (sixteen years ago)

There's a bus straight from my Bloody Mary bar!

but I've already seen the Tales of Hoffmann movie.

did you find someone to go with?

gabbneb, Sunday, 21 September 2008 14:41 (sixteen years ago)

my friend was checking but i actually think i have to skip it now. way too much to get done before tomorrow to interrupt it w/ getting to red hook by 8pm! i'm sad - i really wanted to see it (even though reviews were not great).

highly theoretical, of course. (tehresa), Sunday, 21 September 2008 15:34 (sixteen years ago)
