Re: RAT Peculiar Works Project presents...
you'll be happy to hear that the show went on. tho i had to shush the cops
@ the top of the second act. that was kinda fun, telling the cops "to keep
it down"
but fines went out to the poor folks volunteering to do concessions &
restocking the 'fridge...
any other companies out there have any experience with being busted by da
fuzz? we were under the (albeit mistaken) impression that you could "sell"
beer if you weren't really selling it, but you were asking for a "suggested
donation"...i know it differs greatly from city to city, but any feedback
would be appreciated
