The World's First and Only TWSS Validator, On the Road with US!

He is the only man suited for the job.
In addition to helping the new Brat Pack launch safely, he's unique in all the world for his ability to validate any That's What She Said. Now that we've been taken over by girls we're distorting TWSS beyond recognition (you're welcome), so his support is critical even without an 80s name. Plus he can count to infinity, and he controls cats.

Other Proud Traditions Won't Die EIther

Just as faithfully as we follow the Rules of the Road and the Second Law of Thermodynamics, the Brat Pack maintains certain bass player traditions in spite of the recent innovation. These include, but are not limited to, a cute skirt, occasional party hats, and intoxicating perfume.

A Proud Tradition Endures

Lynndi Lauper's been showing off for the new people with stubbed toes, ripped hose, minor head injuries, the lightweight stuff of today's more cautious, well-informed Brat Pack. Predictably, no one was impressed.

But last night, Sam Kind of Wonderful brought the Pack back to its roots. During the first song of the night, Footloose, the whirlwind culminated in a serious ankle sprain. At break an hour later, there was no time for first aid or even sympathy, as a downpour directed everyone's attention to protecting inanimate objects. Neglecting Poor Sam's problem for several hours, and even laughing at him and getting video of him limping across the parking lot, let it bloom into today's triumphant, old skool gig tragedy!

It's good to know that some Brat Pack traditions continue...

News and Weather Update

We've just received word that something happened, probably related to the 80s or someone who lived in the 80s, and that there will be weather in the near future, although its style and intensity are difficult to predict.

Meanwhile, we suspect that Alex in Chains' hair and the Aurora Borealis were separated at birth. You decide.

Distinguished Alumni of the Summer Teen Jobs Program!

Heathers! Class of 2004...
She's a big star now, of screen and stage, but she still returns our calls and text messages and will even hang out in the back of the van with Lynndi when needed.

D-Boy, Class of 2010,
completed the program six months early and went on to win big dance competitions in this costume! He's a youtube sensation too!

We Made a Deal with the City

For our big huge Cowboy Monkey Block Party Beach Party show this Saturday in downtown Champaign in Champaign, Illinois, we might not be allowed to set fires, spray fake blood, or dump fifteen tons of sand, but we WILL be allowed to have clear skies.

The City has moved the inclement weather to Friday and promised us a beautiful night of Beach Partying. As long as we don't call it "Street F***" and in exchange for our participation in their new Summer Teen Jobs Program.

We already have two teens lined up for Brat Pack summer jobs but still don't know their 80s names.
