part one
Coming off a weeklong stint at Hookahville in Tribeca, SMB stumbles into this much anticipated tête-à-tit in the village. The band, as always, walks in smiling. They open with “It Takes a Village” a scathing indictment of small-town life. Then DA introduces a zombie snuff film. A groundbreaking genre choice for DA, since as we know dead people can't die because they're already dead. Its not a crime* to kill a zombie. Its analogous to shooting a corpse. After the riveting film four unknown zombie dancers strip out of costumes to reveal their true identities: the Fly Girlz String Quartet (FGSQ) -- stunning in black fur-lined t-shirt dresses and tourmaline necklaces. Then SMB launches a 45 minute heart pounding soul searching, vagina pulsing sweat drenched musical frenzy. Sean delivers the chilling antler clad benediction. Unbeknownst to SMB, the Dopamine Girlz (DG'z) are busy in the dressing room. They miss the entire set.*Massachussets vs. Butcher -2007

part two
It's time for the Dopamine Girlz to play. They are nowhere in sight. Z and B go look for them. They knock on the dressing room door. A voice says, “come in”.[switch to first person]
We look at each other and smile. We open the door. Ella is naked on a couch. Lulu also naked is asleep with her head on Ella's thighs. We turn to leave. Ella says, “B can you help me?” We slam the door fleeing gunshots. We run downstairs to the bar. T is like, “Hey what happened to you guys?”

The band huddles and disappears into an alley to get high. Hours later they reemerge ready to play another set. DA announces: “I regret to inform you -- the Dopamine Girlz will not be appearing tonight. They have apparently fallen victim to food poisoning".

part three
SMB opens a raging instrumental set. Everybody's dancing, including FGSQ. Everyone’s screaming. The Dopamine Girlz leap on stage from nowhere -- wearing leopard pajamas. The bands rock the house with stellar renditions of "Uzi-Suzy" and a cover of the CJ’s cover of "She's Having my Baby."
Next week SMB appears at Virgo in Queens
