NEW YEARS' EVE SLOWDANCE PARTY

To celebrate our 1 year anniversary, we've teamed up with the lovely folks at the Mainline Theatre this year to put on a FREE New Year's Eve Slowdance Night!

With a lending library of designated dancers for all you wallflowers, and a dancecard-booklet to set up dances in advance, Slowdance Night has all slow songs, all night long!

It's high school with a happy ending, and it's queer, senior, and couple-friendly too.

PS. Fantastic and inspired attire, while desired, is not required.

Want to join the Slow Dance Committee? Who wouldn't!

Perpetual Emotion Machines & Lickety Split smut zine would like to invite you, dear reader, to join our Slow Dance Committee! We are currently preparing the festivities for the Halloween Edition of Slow Dance Night, which will be happening on October 17th in Montreal at the lovely La Sala Rossa (4848 St. Laurent, near St. Joseph).

We need your idle hands to busy themselves by helping make dance cards and corsages. If you don't have a moment to spare before the big event, we are also looking for resident dancers who do us all the honour of deflowering the wallflowers of their dance floor virginity. We also would love some folks to help us put up decorations the afternoon of the Slow Dance. Glory, goodies and Slow Dance pins are yours to be had for joining us!

Do let us know if this sounds like something you'd like to get involved with and we will send you the date of the committee met-up! Send us an e-mail: a@licketysplitzine.com

Thank you!

Oct. 17th: Slow dance Night - Halloween Edition!

With a lending library of designated dancers for all you wallflowers, and a dancecard-booklet to set up dances in advance, Slowdance Night has all slow songs, all night long!

Sway, turn & twirl your way through a playlist gathering crooning slowdanceable tunes from the fifties' to the present.

It's high school with a happy ending, and it's queer, senior and couple-friendly too!

As this is our Halloween edition, frightful and fantastic attire, while deeply desired, is not required. However, those who come in costume, whether Halloween-themed or otherwise, will get a free 1" Slowdance Night pin!

La Sala Rossa, 4848 Boul. St-Laurent (just south of St. Joseph)

PS. Just a note to patrons that Mange Ta Ville ("Eat Your City"), a television show on ARTV, will be filming at various times during the event. They are interested in doing a story about Slowdance Night, so this is just a note that you might appear briefly on television at some point. We hope that they will add to the ambiance of the evening, rather than detract from it. Thanks for your understanding.
