All of this for $7 - a bargain if there ever was one! You know the drill - come early & stay late, wear a costume, grab a date, and enjoy an evening of bitter, brutal, beautiful ballads! ----/ Venue Info /------------------------------------------------------ Starry Plough 3101 Shattuck Ave. Berkeley 510-841-2082 www.starryploughpub.com ----/ Additional Info /------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 510-841-2082 www.staggeringsiren.com/shows ----/ The Squid List Admin /--------------------------------------------- The Squid List, a tentacle of Laughing Squid http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/ subscribe, unsubscribe, change your email address or change your subscription options: http://lists.laughingsquid.org/mailman/listinfo/squidlist/ Frequently Asked Questions & Submission Guidelines Squid List FAQ: http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/faq.html The Squid List Online Calendar: http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/calendar/ The Squid List RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/squidlist ----/ Laughing Squid /-------------------------------------------------- Laughing Squid http://laughingsquid.com underground art and culture from San Francisco and beyond Laughing Squid Web Hosting http://laughingsquid.net friendly, dependable and secure web hosting services for artists, individuals, bloggers, non-profits and small businesses Copyright (c) 2005 Laughing Squid.
