GWAR
TO STAGE FIRST ANNUAL “CRACK-A-THON”
Oderus Urungus, lead singer of GWAR, to host
star-studded fund-raising event
Kickoff
Party: Saturday April 10th 7-10pm
MF
GALLERY: 213 Bond St. Brooklyn, NY 11217
In
an announcement given to a “bunch of penguins”,
from the bowels of their Antarctic fortress, the worlds sickest
band, the mighty GWAR, has announced the continuation of their
25th Anniversary with a public event of colossal proportion—The
Crack-a-Thon!
“We
are trying to raise money for the kids…not just muscular
dystrophy, but retards as well, all kinds of fucked-up freaks,”
said Oderus.
The
event will kickoff on April 10th, 2010 at the notorious MF
Gallery in Brooklyn, NY. The weeklong debauchery will be broadcast
live on the World Wide Web, and anybody with internet access
will be able to view the gala event free of charge. Viewers
will be able to pledge funds via a website, (To be announced
later- check www.MFgallery.net for details.) as powerful computers
illegally drain your bank account. Rumors that any money raised
will actually be used to pay off Oderus’s crack debt
were immediately confirmed.
Said
Sleazy P. Martini, reached for comment at his Jersey City
headquarters, “Oderus is completely wasted and really
has no concept of money, instead he prizes things like little
pieces of rope or dead dogs…and dead dogs don’t
pay the bills!”
“The
boys and me wanna give something back to the community, you
know, something besides AIDS…”
After
the kickoff party on April 10th, there will be a week of intense
preparation, as the MF Gallery is transformed into Slave Pit
TV central, and Oderus is set loose on the streets of N.Y.C.
! His atrocities will be carefully documented and broadcast
during the Crack-a-Thon, which will commence on Friday April
16th, 2010. Live web cams will broadcast all the action from
the gallery as slaves desperately prepare for the most stupendous
entertainment event since Bud Dywers very public suicide!
The
Crack-a-Thon will begin on Friday April 16th and will go as
long as it takes to pay off Oderus’s bill, or he gets
bored and leaves, whatever comes first. The public is invited
to be our studio audience, and should contact MF Gallery for
information on how to reserve a seat in the Crack-a-Thon audience.
Oderus will be joined by band mate Balsac, the Jaws of Death,
who will serve as band leader and comic foil.
“I
really don’t know why I demean myself by associating
with him,” said the metal-faced horror, "but it
will be fun watching him fail.”
The
rumored list of guests scheduled to appear include Tiger Woods,
God, and Carmen Electra’s torso, though this was subject
to change. Confirmed is the shadowy underground performance
troupe, the F-Minus Art Players, led by the sewer-dwelling
playwright and art-fag Anton Reemcobb, who are slated to perform
some of their shockingly neo-dada-esque bullshit theatre.
Also confirmed are cybernetic musical guests DETHRACE, among
others.
Look
for a full listing on www.MFgallery.net of all the stars appearing
on what shall surely go down in history as one the most colossal
failures in GWAR history. Prepare yourself for the Crack-a-Thon!!!
