The Black Cat Burlesque group put on a special late night show for us. Warning NSFW: http://www.blackcatburlesque.com/


Also, note there were two sets of vintage Coming Attraction Prevue Trailers from our secret vault in Ohio! For some reason, the vault is named "Bruce".

Plus, there was the TIN FOIL HAT CONTEST! And the ALIEN MATING CRY CONTEST.
