Hahahaha.

Still been on the weekly grind at The Basement, but I'm now finished at Neo. The Basement gigs have been going well, lots of late night fun. All the gigs you missed hearing about (haha) have been added to the gig list.
Upcoming Saturdays will be spent planning and promoting a massive upcoming party for charity, Spy Vs. Spy. Here's the press release for the party:

------------------------

Fabric: Kyungsung. Saturday, June 28.

Either you attended the Busan Beer Olympics, or you simply heard about it afterwards.

The same party people bring you: Spy Vs. Spy.

Wear black. Or wear white. But definitely wear sunglasses.

To celebrate the conclusion of Busan Assassin, an awards show/party/final fundraiser event is being held at Club Fabric, near Kyungsung University.

This is the 2nd charitable party to raise money for the Sung Ae Won Home for Children.

Just like Busan Assassin, it is guaranteed to be bigger and better than the Busan Beer Olympics.

It will be another party to remember, no matter how many beers you drink.

Save the orphans. Become a spy.

Spy Vs. Spy: June 28. Fabric: Kyungsung.

Foreigners "Kill" For Charity

At the end of June, the Busan streets will be filled with crazed foreigners, set on vengeance at all costs. Secretive assassins will roam the city, searching for their next hit without remorse. Fortunately, it won't be blood that will be spilt, but water!

To raise money for a local orphanage, the Sung Ae Won Home for Children, a unique event has been organized. "Busan Assassin" will run from June 18 to June 28, culminating in an awards show/party/final fundraiser event at Fabric, located in Kyungsung.

The object of the game is simple, kill or be killed, using water pistols as the primary weapon. Each participant will be given the name of their single target, as well as information regarding their whereabouts. They will then have to track them down, and slay them using their water pistol. Once accomplished they'll inherit their initial target's would-be victim, and the game continues until a final champion emerges. There will also be a "police force" to regulate the game rules, as well as to pursue slothful assassins. Workplaces (given that most participants will be English teachers) are off limits, and restaurants and bars will be as well, to protect the innocent!

"Busan Assassin" is the second in a series of events aimed to raise funds for the orphanage, while also involving foreigners more directly in the Korean life that all-to-often only exists around them. The first event, "Busan Beer Olympics," was held Saturday, April 5, and raised almost 900,000 won from entry fees, donations, and commemorative t-shirt sales. The second aims to be bigger and better, not only in terms of entertainment (hopefully for spectators as well as participants), but also in regards to the money collected for the orphanage.
