T'was a beautiful night in the neighborhood, a beautiful night for some madness and fun, as the mad ones came gathering 'round at Mad Swirl Open Mic this past 1st Wednesday.
As the proverbial trolley came by we jumped aboard and were whisked away to the Land of Never Believe! All the mad poets, musicians, singers and performers came to ride the wave of swirling insanities and what a beautiful night of madness it was!
Very special special thanks to the mad ones in the neighborhood who came on 08.06.07 to witness the madness...

Although we were left longing for our monthly dose of Swirve, we were blessed by the talents of Gerard & Friends starring guitarist Buddy, bass player Lyles & mad man G-Man Gerard Bendix on skins.
And, as always, the deepest grats to one of the maddest cats of all, Absinthe Lounge owner Kevin & the Lounge staffers My and Tracy for keeping the drinks fillin' and swillin' for us mad ones.
