Subject  Dr. Finbar is Turned Away at the Door 


Hello again,

Here's a brief addendum to Monday's email.

Last night we were slated to play at the Ninth Ward. However, we made 
a small tactical error. We arrived just slightly later than usual, and 
discovered that the evening was just about booked up and that we 
wouldn't be able to play until 11.15. Being the snivelling nancy boys 
that we are, this was entirely unacceptable (by 11.15 we need to be 
tucked up in bed sporting our flannel pyjamas while pressing a stiff 
glass of warm milk and honey to our lips).

So we left the place with our tails between our teeth (that's right, 
our teeth...) and a horde of enraged fans trailing out behind us. 
Fortunately, we were able to pacify them and prevent them from sacking 
the CBD.

THE GOOD NEWS

As you know, our esteemed member, Dr. Sam, is doing his graduation 
ceremony tomorrow (Thursday). After the ceremony, we've decided to 
have a little celebration in his honour at the House of the Surreal, 
the famous Yak Speakeasy (160 Hoddle St., Abbotsford - near Collingwood 
Station), starting around 8pm. There is a rumour that we might even 
play, so if you're interested, drop in.

Oh, and with a little luck, you won't receive any more spam from us 
this week,

The Dr. Finbar Trio.
