If you are a local, I highly recommend you spend this (Thursday) evening the way the Black Apple is going to: at the adorable Black Wagon for the opening of my favorite frog Ryan Berkley's new show, "Champion Festival". I will be there for most (if not all) of the evening, admiring some insanely whimsical and detailed scenarios, and hoping against hope that ribbons bearing the words "Fancy Dandy" will be handed out as party favors at the end of the night.
Then only the next day, both jet-setting Berkleys head to ye olde Renegade Chicago, so please go out and visit those two (and Sarah and her new ferris wheel!) if'n you're around the windy city.
I wish we were going!
