Nerd Hot = White Hot

Tonight I will perform with The Story Pirates at the WNYC States of the Union Viewing Party.  There is the distinct possibility that I will meet Jad Abumrad of Radio Lab.  Which means there is also a very distinct possibility that I will try to kiss him on the mouth.

WNYC State of the Union Viewing Party

Time: 7:00PM - 10:00PM
Street: 44 Charlton Street, New York, NY
Location: The Greene Space

Last week’s show and after-party was an incredible night for The Scene.  We sold out the show for the first time and had one of the most fun nights we can remember.
Miss out on the party?  Make sure you join our list so you don’t miss out next time.
Coming to the show tonight?  Get your tix ahead so we don’t have to say “Sorry Charlie.”
