So here it is - the announcement about our newest event!  SACCHARINE is once-a-month on a FRIDAY, so all the better!  We are excited and hope to see you!  :)   (And for those [Samantha, this means you!] wanting us to do an ages 18+ event, here you go)!  :)
 
 DON'T PANIC!
 
 Keep your calendars open!
 
 Friday November 19th sees the launch of SACCHARINE, a new musical product for your dancing pleasure. Twice the sweetness and four times the fun.
 
 DJ Pogo (formerly of PANIC and 99.1 WHFS) will return from Chicago once per month to join DJ's Medusa and Strange at this brand-new event.
 
 SACCHARINE, D.C.'s hottest music substitute showcasing Britpop, Indie and Synth dance music, occurs at Between Friends, 1115 U Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. on the *3rd Friday of every month*.  Ages 18+.  $6 cover charge.  Doors open @ 9 p.m.

 Too good to keep to yourself - share this with friends!
 
 Cheers

yeah!  I'm quite excited about the Friday night event...
 
 That particular night there is a fundraising happy hour at The Blue Room to benefit Miriam's Kitchen.   It's a great way for folks to have fun and help out a great local organization (information below).
 
 I'll bring folks from Blue Room for some cool music at Between Friends.  Woo hoo.

Thanks for the enthusiasm!
 
 I've been working on my tentative setlist today and have been getting excited.  ;)
 
 (Yes we did ask permission first, of course!).
 
 Cheers

Back in the day, a friend of mine hooked a skeptical me into going to my first Panic with these words:  "they play The Cult.  And I always leave with my hair wet."  
 
 I went and she was right on both counts.  So, once again (whether or not you play The Cult) I'm looking forward to leaving with my hair wet.   :)

Dogs Die in Hot Cars... Think XTC meets Franz Ferdinand.  There are loads of other influences like Roxy Music, Dexy's Midnight Runners.

It's an understatement to say how excited DJ Strange and I are about this event!  Yay!
 
 We are bringing The Cult, and if there are any other song requests for SACCHARINE please post them soon so that we can bring the discs with us.
 
 See you in 2 days - can't wait!  :)
 
 Cheers
 
 DJ Medusa.

I am stoked about this.  I will be even more stoked if any/all of:
 
 Ladytron
 Client
 Dubstar
 The Faint (not the new album)
 Chapterhouse
 
 are played, plus the Standard Array of Britpop Hits.
