Auld acquaintance were not forgot,
And t'was definitely brought to mind.
Auld acquaintance were not forgot,
And we honored auld lang syne.
Auld acquaintances were not forgotten this past 1st Wednesday at Absinthe Lounge as we brought in the double-aught nine with a night of beat-utiful swirling madness! T'was a night to remember and embrace...with old and new mad acquaintances spreading the poetic and musical voo-doo that they do do...appreciators sharing their handclaps, fingersnaps, hootinations and affirmations...thank-you, thank-you and thank-you. They all had their hands in the Mad Swirling creative collective that made this 1st Wednesday what it was, what it is and what it will be as we move forward into '09.
With the most sincerest of praises and respect, Mad Swirl would like to thank and recognize the mad ones who brought in '09 with swirlin' vivacity on 01.07.09 in order of appearance...

A very special Swirlin' thanks to Swirve's amazin' trumpeter Chris Curiel, mad man G-Man Gerard Bendix on skins for keeping us movin', groovin' and boppin' all night long!
And HUGE thanks to Absinthe Lounge owner Kevin for allowing us mad ones to go with our flow for over 4 years now. And a shout-out to the fine Lounge staffers Jennifer and Tracy for keeping the mad spirits fillin' and swillin' for us mad ones.
