We are being inundated w/ friends from the north once again, w/ 2 big shows featuring some of the finest E-Town has to offer. Thursday night we'll be graced by the presence of Yes Nice w/ the return of Marquee faves/friends Colleen Brown and Darren Frank. And of course, Saturday night marks the return of The Wet Secrets to the Marquee. Ohhhh yeah. They'll be bringing Christian Hansen and the Autistics to open, and although we have yet to see the Autistics live, they come with a very high reccomendation from none other than the Wet Secrets themselves, so... well, y'know- 'nuff said.
Scared of missing out? Become a fan of the Marquee Room over here....

FRIDAY NOV 28
HAUTE PURSE SUIT
Apparently some change is in the wind for the venerable Wax Romeo and Teddy Celebration's Friday night residency at the Marquee, b ut they are being SO tight-lipped about it (and for W. Romeo, that's sayin something...), that WE don't even know what's going on. All I can tell you for certain, dear reader, is that our Friday night boogie-meisters will be in the house, and will throw down as per youshe.
Doors at 9 PM, $7 cover
SATURDAY NOV 29
THE WET SECRETS w/ CHRISTIAN HANSEN and THE AUTISTICS
Our friends at X92.9 have been super gracious in helping us put this show on, and the return of the Wet Secrets means only one thing... it's Get-Down time, kids! I've seen them a dozen times, and they never fail to give it, good-time-Charlie/Charlize..- style. Personally, I can't wait for another seriously rocking version of 'Grow Yr Own Fucking Moustache, Asshole'

Their shows are also notorious for selling out, so make sure you show up early and catch some seriously killer new wavey/electro-ish rock and roll from another great Edmo band, Christian Hansen and the Autistics.
