Hi, sorry I've been away from the blog world
for so long!
As many of you know, I have not been playing
with my beloved rock band Flaming Fire for a
while now--I've busy with comics and puttering around
in my house singing along with Aretha.
But it's an itch that's got to be
scratched, Patrick wrote some slammin' new jams,
and my urge to rock you
wonderful people has not died, it's just gotten stronger,
so for one night only, I will throw down with Patrick and
company for a SCORCHING show.
I will probably be so miserable because this is my
last ever show that
I will have to be dragged off the stage in tears.
I also got a brand new wig
and surprise outfit just for the occasion!
So come on down this Friday, we'll be playing all the hits!
Union Pool is located at 484 Union Ave at Skillman Ave
take the G or L train to Metropolitan/Lorimer
I think we're going on at 11, but get there at 10 so you
can see my favorite singer ever,
Saasha Foo.
Actually, come at like 6:30, so we can all talk and
drink and love each other for one
last time.
In other news, The Goddess of War got on Richard Gehr's of

I hope to see you all at the show for my LAST EVER PERFORMANCE, EVER.
hi lauren,
i just read, is it really your last ff show? awww that is so sad! i’m an old lady these days recovering from a wintery cold, but i’ll try and swing by to give some love/ props for ya.
i think i’ve only caught about three or four ff shows, but every time you guys always put on a entertaining show and make me smile.
on the comics front, so good to hear things are going well, your gow book was pretty great and i look forward to reading your future stuff. don’t forget, if you ever need the hookup on the west side, andrew is your go to guy.
late last summer though i officially stopped working for the museum after almost six years, tough to leave, but had to be done, which was heartbreaking because our director is extremely sick and it has been a rough time for everyone last year. yeah, the world of non-profit comics is really made up of people who do it for the sheer love of it, sigh…
anyway, hope to catch up some tomorrow, and happy new year!
p.s – i always wanted a ff t-shirt, do you guys have women smalls? the bear with the bees is really cute.
