Dearest Funky Ones, 
You are invited to our third annual Funky Ones Holiday party!
Where: Castle McLeodisterWhen: The evening of Saturday December 17th. 9p-late
Our yearly holiday party celebrates our community and it’s accomplishments throughout the year. 2011 has been exceptionally triumphant and this year we present the ‘Host of House Parties Present’ in honor of our distinguished friends who have made this year so marvelous. While we intend the party to be relatively small, we encourage you to include close friends and fresh faces that would be most delighted by our unique happenings.
The legendary bed stage will be returning with musical acts all night. David Colón will begin the evening by regaling us with acoustic holiday favorites, a midnight performance by i can dress myself will follow and the night will close with a delicious and epic dance party DJ’d by Dioscuri. 
We will be serving beer and holiday tea, although gifts of spirits and ales are encouraged. As usual, outfits of the freshest holiday garb are smiled upon.
Thank you all so much for collaborating on all our magical adventures!
Eamon and Graham

PLANET BOOTY AND THE FUNKY ONES PRESENT: FUNKSGIVING 11.26.11

BUY TICKETS    RSVP on facebook 

 

November 26th, 2011
Red Devil Lounge - 1655 Polk St # 1  San Francisco, CA 94109-8820
8pm-1am / 21+
$10 (presale)
Come experience a veritable feast of funk and freakishness featuring:

_____________________________________________________________________________



 PLANET BOOTY

Planet Booty is a force to be reckoned with. Having started as a genre-defying concept album by brothers Nathan and Dylan Germick that blends electropop, sci-fi synths, space funk and booty bass, the project has evolved into a live show of epic proportions. The 6-piece ensemble fuses electronics, drums, percussion, horns, marimba, guitars, and soulful singing (with a splash of choreography and theatrics) to create a hyper-charged and highly entertaining dance party experience.
