Geez….has anyone looked at the upcoming shows ellum:ONSTAGE has? They are kicking butt and fast. And as much as I liked the Palladium Ballroom, EO’s shows are looking like a much better offering.
I’m just sayin’.
See you at Mates of State.
I don’t know who’s playing here but this is ellum’s state-of-the-art stage to its 1100 person venue.
If you’re out and about tonight, don’t forget your taste of Meat Radio tonight over at Club Dada. Nothing against Dada but just wish some other clubs were doing great stuff all the time. Maybe soon, all the other places will catch on. Lakewood Bar and Grill is getting the idea thanks to that dynamo, Amanda.
Well, I can’t say I really care about pageants but Quick felt the need to remind that tonight is Miss America. Now, this isn’t the one that Donald Trump sponsors. I think this is the real thing that ‘every girl dreams of’. And then they forget and go for Miss USA.
Anyway, I guess we should wish Miss Texas 2006, Shilah Phillips good luck tonight. And if you’re curious about our representative, here are some facts to quench your thirst:
