UGLY = MERRY

This past Saturday December 18 we threw our UGLY (or Just Misunderstood) SWEATER PARTY at the Mad Hatter in Covington, KY.

Between the amazing line-up, the Rudolphed noses, the XMAS TREE CANVAS, and the sweaters...

it got ugly.








Friends and volunteers helped decorate and man the Rudolph station, and audience members added their personal touch to the XMAS TREE.











Meanwhile amazing indie bands performed -



among them Lions Rampant...

Eat Sugar...

and our friends Louisville's THE PASS.

and finally WALK THE MOON.



the holiday joy in the room was RADIANT.





Thanks so much to everyone who came and was a part of the show, and thanks especially to Dottie, Keith, Joe, Ben, Anna, Claire, Katie, Maggie, and Lauren for all your time and effort! Cheers to the Mad Hatter for letting all of us transform you.



See you in 2011. In January we'll be back in Cincinnati as well as Columbus, Dayton, Philly, Cleveland, New York City, Indianapolis, and hopefully a few other places in between. Have a Happy, Ugly, Merry New Year.

love,
Nicholas, Sean, and Kevin
