A week of celebrating great men

We don't half-ass things over here at H Is for Hellgate. This week is jam-packed with awesomes. Check it.

#1 - Tuesday, January 20th at Chop Suey - Three Imaginary Girls Inauguration Celebration.

We're headlining this fantastic show with a stellar line-up. In honor of our 44th president, we're going to play two new songs, "White Knife" and "If Somebody Nails You To A Cross (You Don't Have Much Choice)," neither of which have anything to do with Barack Obama, inaugurations, or politics.

#2 - Saturday, January 24th at Skylark Cafe - Second Annual Ben Baier Appreciation Night

If you were at last year's Ben Baier Appreciation Night, you may remember the "Hooray" Shirts, the giant "Hooray" lighted sign, or the non-stop yelling of the word "Hooray" by everyone in the building.

Nobody can argue that Ben "Hooray" Baier brought the word hooray into our collective vocabulary and consciousness. And, while there are haters of The Hooray, one man stands unshaken by opposition. He throws back is head, breathes in the air, and releases the air back into the world on a magical blanket of joy and merriment..."HOORAY!"

Ben plays with Hellgate at 9PM and We Wrote The Book On Connectors at 11PM. Our friends The Dead Americans from Eugene play at 10PM
