Shaki Presents is Rick Omonte, enlisting the help of many talented persons. Warren is THE sound engineer. He makes the room sound good. Without him, we're lost at sea. Crowley and Miller are pouring the drinks in the Backroom. Ask them what's up, what's new, what's going on...they know the deal. Jerry is the Man in the Frontroom. He's got us all in the palm of his hand. These fellas make certain you never dry up. Katey manages, and manages to make sure everything goes smooth, and it does. We're so grateful to have her. The amazing staff at BAR, and Cafe Nine, are priceless. They work the trenches. And we've got great support from local artists (you can find most of them at Lovecraft Tattoo) by way of amazing poster/flyer artwork. Sure sure, Kirk is still our computer consultant, but we try and give him a break (he's always busy). There are others. Really, what would Shaki Presents do without these dedicated folks?
