Those of you who live in New York City or will be here next Tuesday evening should make every effort to attend this event, at which I will be performing a song I wrote:
Many other fine bloggers will be reading, and the Hazzards will be performing their smash hit song “Gay Boyfriend”.
The problem is that “Gay Boyfriend” is the most brilliant thing I’ve ever heard, and it’s entirely possible that, before Tuesday, I will die of anxiety that the audience will hate me because my song isn’t as good.
If you want to take the chance that I won’t die before Tuesday, or if you hold the correct belief that the fabulousness of the event will be unaffected by my death, you can get tickets here.
how much are tickets?
If your first performance at the WYSIWYG is of any indication, you would bring down the house. Literally. Now I need to wait until 11am to buy tickets for me and 200 of my closest friends.
Is there going to be any translation of Elton John songs into Latin this time around?
Why is it that when I plan a vacation, suddenly zillions of events crop up that simply must be sampled, or else bitterly regretted due to my inability to attend? This is heartbreaking because I am destined to bitterly regret my inability to attend. Get your ass out there a little more often so that we’ll all have more chances to experience the brilliance, the drama, and the glory.
I love the Hazzards, but I love you more. I only wish I were going to be in town!
Anxiety is rarely fatal.
However, the blog itself may be on its way out–it was just spotlighted by Time magazine as a ‘hot new trend’.
i’ll tell my friend in albany so he can watch.
The Hazzards!? It´s about time someone else in this country appreciates them. I LOVE Gay Boyfriend!!
Having said that, Faustus, you are sure to be a hit. The girls in the Hazzards always lip sync. Furthermore, as witty as their song is, I´ve heard your music, and it´s just as clever, if not more.
Wish I could be there. Good luck….
You’ll be totally hot, you silly boy.
Farid, tickets are $7. Less than a buck per performance – woot!
Oh, and A.P. – I really doubt the lip-synching thing anyway, but it definitely won’t be happening Tuesday – we’re far too low-tech to accommodate such Milli Vanilloid shenanigans!
I was there last night, and let me be the first to say, post-event, that your song was (is) waaaaay better than “Gay Boyfriend”. Plus, there’s the additional extra-crispy bonus that YOU CAN ACTUALLY SING. And very well. No need to throw in an electric banjo (or whatever) as diversion, that’s for sure. Plus (chapter two), you’re cuter than they are. So there.
