Appointment with the Doctor: Demento & other music at Reedfayre ’12

demento_boombox.jpgW-w-wind up your Reunions!  Dr. Demento (Barry Hansen '63) here, calling all Reedies to join us at Reunions ’12: Reedfayre!  It's like Renn Fayre, but with better wine and less mayhem. You'll greet old friends, meet new ones, and say farewell to President Colin Diver after ten sweet years.

We'll have great music made by your fellow Reedies: electric energy with Ghost Animal, Surf Maggots, Slutty Hearts, and Hollow Dog; acoustic magic with Kyle Alden (Thayer) '80 and the Stumptown Family Ramblers; and bluesy, jazzy standards with Sweet Baboo.

There will be folk dancing in the SU (Jim Kahan '64 is back, with his 2012 knee). We’ll dance to "Stop Making Sense" too! And then there's Laugh Track on Friday night in the chapel with Nato Green '97 (of Laughter Against the Machine), Paul Anderson '92 (singing "On the Night Bus" and his other comedy songs), awesome sleight-of-hand with Zack Dubnoff  '91, and Dr. Demento's Greatest Hits with yours truly.

Learn more about these bands and see the full schedule for all that is happening May 30 through June 3 at http://reedfayre.reed.edu/ 

You have an appointment!
