On Chinese Moon Year’s Eve, a dreamful night in an opium den of our making. Recline in languid repose and drift in the pleasures of intimate performance, golden-throated singers, tales told in glistening flesh, exotic cocktails and delectable dim sum. Featuring live vintage Chinese jazz by Shien Lee of Shanghai Triad and Dances of Vice, Chinese balladry by talented young cantautore Natti Vogel, Asian-inspired burlesque by Dame Cuchifrita and GrandmaFun, and your opium den madam The Flying Fox. Late-nightethno-loungegrooves by DJ Nightshade. Love tarot readings by Marcy Currier. Custom mural by Molly Crabapple. And of course cocktails by The House Of St Eve (yes, t.h.o.s.e. drinks)…

What time are you on?
Your hot shitness and whole heartedness continue to enchant. Natti — you are not just beautiful, sensual, intelletual and so on — but deeply prescient with your finger on the pulse.
Thank you for shouting out your rebel call and tirelessly working to musing meaning. I love your mom and I love YOU.
If you are in Boston (though I see there is no return ticket from China) might you play “Sweat Nectar” at our wedding. We’re “doing it” New Year’s Eve at Springstep in Medford.
Salsa band, drummers — and I noticed a baby grand behind the curtain.
Anyway, first and foremost – if you are stateside, please do come with a honey to our nuptials?
If not, so much love to you kick ass man.
Wish I could say something pithy in Chinese but I am hopelessly limited linguistically.
Keep up the good fight!
Much love, Mary xoxo
Owning my typos, I know how to spell “intellectual” — and “muse meaning.” Anyhoo.
Then there is the music video for “Bees of Podunk”!
