The Tone-Deaf Troubadour: Vinyl Side Valentine's Day at the Royale

A special edition of Vinyl Side Valentine's Day on February 14th from 8-11:30pm- bring in your favorite love/hate recording then recite the lyrics for all to hear.==Instead of staying at home suffering under the crushing weight of solitude this Valentine's Day, join love magnates Stefene Russell and Thom Fletcher at The Royale, where they will give you the tools you need to win the heart you deserve. It's easy to speak your mind freely to somebody once you already share an established relationship. You can say things like “In Holly-rock her name would be Mary Stewart Mastodon” or “Please don't talk about Flinstones to my coworkers, Thom”. But when you first have your soul-mate in your sites and it's time to make your intentions clear, every word counts. What will you say? What words will be the key that fits the most important lock? Let's face it; you need some serious help here. You could look to Shakespeare or Elizabeth Barrett Browning, but they don't really describe that yearning of yours to rock one like a hurricane, or how much you like a cold beverage, yeah, like a cold beverage, yeah, like a cold beverage. On Valentine's Day the lyrics of our generation's greatest balladeers are in your hands and the whole bar is waiting for your recital. Find that special someone in the room, make eye contact, and let them know just how you feel with the words of Richie, Mothersbaugh, Yorke, Cent and Rotten. Singing will only obscure the words – this must be spoken, and spoken loud. Dutch courage available for those with weak knees. This year when you see cupid flitting about the Royale, you don't need to call animal control. Instead bring a badminton racket and we'll serve him up right.
