After Dinner Mint

This Thursday you may or may not find yourself sitting down with a bunch of people, drinking and eating and laughing. Or you might find yourself sitting with well meaning relatives, resisting the urge to scream or, in quiet desperation, steal a glance at your time piece.

Whatever you are doing (or not doing) Thursday evening, you might want to consider slipping out to JVs later - say about 9? Dave Chappell will be there commandeering the stage with another guitar crazy throw down. This week's band includes local boy genius Andy Poxton, Barry the Phoenix Hart on drums, and Claude Arthur sewing up the bass line like a trussed out bird. The show rocks 'til midnight or later so with any luck, you might be able to sleep right on through that evil plague also known as Black Friday.
