Current mood:  cheerful
hello,
oxfam has been off to a crazy start this semester. our orientation show was a success! thank you class of 2012 for coming out and drinking coffee and losing thumb wars. we had our very first show busted by tufts finest, but it was ok! we saw eliot lipp, drumachine, and sam obey bust it before daedelus and us had a little guerilla party at someone's house...these are what memories are made of, folks. and we promise it won't happen again. our calendar is nearly full for this semester, so i'm gonna post some shows oxfam is putting on or hosting these next few months. this year, most of our shows are gonna be on saturdays instead of friday! also, as always, fair trade coffee, food, and goodies will be for sale starting with the adventure show! we are STILL booking so if you're down, we're down. and remember, all oxfam shows are free and all ages. those other ones are usually all ages, but not always free. check back for deets.
love & see you soon,
oxfam

Current mood:danced out
The show scheduled for tonight featuring Papersky, Woon Young Jeong, and Jinah Kim has unfortunately been cancelled.

However, Bodies of Water Arts and Crafts have something lovely for us in store tomorrow, 2 Dec. Myspace, as usual, hates us and has refused this to be on our calendar. So if you haven't heard elsewhere, here's the details:

Bodies of Water Arts and Crafts presents Shell Shag (NYC), Headband, Hats and Glasses, and Wonderful Spells

$7

http://myspace.com/shellshag  http://www.myspace.com/headband  http://www.myspace.com/hatsandglasses  http://www.myspace.com/wonderfulspells

So don't come to Oxfam tonight, but don't miss out on tomorrow's BOWAAC awesomeness.

love,

your friends at Oxfam Midnight Cafe
