Join Vipers Soul Club as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Sound
of Young America by spinning our 50 favorite Motown tracks throughout
the night, along with our regular selections of 1960s R&B and
Northern Soul!

Two score and ten years ago, our fathers brought
forth on this continent a new sound, conceived in Detroit, and
dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal – and that
Smokey Robinson was created even more equal than that.

Through
50 Years the golden pipes and clapping hands of THE MIRACLES,
TEMPTATIONS, SUPREMES, EDDIE HOLLAND, FOUR TOPS, STEVIE WONDER,

But,
in a larger sense, we cannot honor Motown – the badass singers and
players, living and dead, who Monkey Time’d and Shing-a-Ling’ed before
us have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract.

The
world will little note, and you – twelve beers and six shots in – will
little remember, what we do this night. But the SOUND OF YOUNG AMERICA,
in all its past and present sins and glories, still make your
goosebumps quiver and your low-end shiver, so it is altogether fitting
and proper that we should do this.

We must dedicate and
rededicate ourselves to the great task remaining before us: That
whiskey drinking and lude-thought-thinking; soul-clapping, toe-tapping,
and dip-dapping, OF the people, BY the people, and FOR the people,
shall not perish from This ‘Burgh.

SO PUT ON YOUR BEST WIG
AND THOSE RED SHOES
BRING YOUR FINEST SHIMMY
AND ALL YOUR BOOGALOO’S
