The Fest was held in the Falcon's Nest club in the Riverwest neighborhood (The club is home to the fourth oldest bowling alley in America!). Walking inside I was reminded of why I love the Midwest so much. Down to earth, somewhat lost in time, wood paneling. I set up and the show began.
Falcon's Club mailbox.
World War 3 Illustrated table et al.
The Spit and a Half corner.
I thought this was amusing.
Denver homie Kelly Shortandqueer was there sporting his mind-blowing Justin Bieber tee.
On the way home I tried to take a picture of the World's Largest Can of Chili from the highway. That yellowish blotch in the left-center is it. Maybe next time I'll get a better pic.
Anyhow, the Fest was a blast. Everybody was so nice. It almost made me wanna move to Milwaukee!

I love that Laverne and Shirley opening (though the one where they kiss the Beatles is pretty good too). I wish the show itself had consisted of more moments like where they are gazing into space as the beer makes its way along the assembly line...
