   About Thackeray's Victims
Buy Thackeray Crap!!! here: http://www.cafepress.com/thackerays

Doublecrossed by a crooked landowner named Rockafellow and a priest of the Esoteric Order of Dagon named Thackeray, The Happy Day March Band were robbed, beaten, killed, and left in the woods of Hogshead, New Jersey on Walpurgisnacht of the year 1919. But due to the brutal nature of their slaying and certain qualities of the ether that night, the band was brought back to life, fated to wander the earth seeking kindred souls and salvation through their songs. With a constantly rotating cast of backup players, two charismatic frontmen, an accordion, and a shovel, Thackeray's Victims (as they are now called) are out to sow the seeds of fear, doubt, lust, and joy in the hearts of all they encounter, and hopefully, find a way to that rest that is accorded all good people.

 

Thackeray's Victimsare part-time collaborators with the Lost Carnival Sideshow Congress of Anomalies, and have performed with such auspicious talents as The World/Inferno Friendship Society, Reverend Glasseye, and Malakoi. Book them to play your favorite bar, basement, alleyway or place of higher learning. They love you. They'd love to play for you. They need the money. Honest.

 

They're both perfectly average height, but Dr. Talos is a little taller.

To the contrary, your digital proximity to mine disgusts me physically. Overcoming my personal feelings, however, I added you because you were the last profile on Earth that I had not yet friended. FEEL GRATITUDE!!

(actually I think you're great and I'm sorry I missed yer show at the Breadbox!)

Born from the underground music and arts scene in Brighton, England. 
SUBMARINE ANNIES unique blend of sleazy live music and risque performance cabaret has found itself scavenging the underbelly of NewYork City.

A place to come and shake down the stresses of the city, to hide out under the radar of corporate guidelines and revel in the seedy decadence that SUBMARINE ANNIES creates.

LIVE MUSIC THIS MONTH:
The muddy tones of LJ MURPHY's rousing solo blues will literally pour
the bourbon for you at the bar,
followed by a rigorous foot stomping horn extravanganza from ska 
masters THE TRI STATE CONSPIRACY, plotting to take the roof off.
Alongside magic and burlesque from ALBERT CADABRA & GAL FRIDAY & exotic fire performances from DIMITRI & BELLA from FLESHFORFIRE.com
