skyrockets in flight
New Blood Night!
On this day in 1462, Vlad the Impaler attacked an ottoman camp at night in an attempt to have somewhere to rest his feet. He was named "The Impaler" because of his habit of greeting people by impaling them. Most of these stories, however, are merely propaganda. For instance, he was just as likely to boil you alive, or feed you to your relatives for dinner.
To commemorate this historical event, we will be having New Blood Night tonight, and all people new to the jam cellar will get in free, along with those who bring them. We will also have Kabobs. Andy Reid will DJ.
Upcoming this weekÂ
Tonight is the third week of Don't try this at home. Also, Wednesday night is "Jam Cellar" Night at K2, which is a dance club located at the top of the 495 loop. This Saturday is the last night of K2, where the Hot Club of Jam Cellar will play some of the 4 songs they know.
