AUGUST 3RD!

MOTHER FOOL-S COFFEE HOUSE!!

THE GEOFF AND KIA SHOW!!!

MUSIC!!!!

MAGIC!!!!!

BICKERING!!!!!!

Okay, not so much magic. BUT, do you remember opening the newspaper comics page (also, remember newspapers?) and there was a one-strip comic called The Lockhorns, which focused on a married couple who were forever deriding one another in a variety of domestic and social situations? Hilariously and obliquely? Remember?

NOW, imagine if both members of the Lockhorn dyad played instruments! In public! And you were there! That-s The Geoff and Kia Show! Plus, with extra-special guests! And puppets!

For this RARE August 3rd performance, the intrepid duo will perform a variety of composed/improvised music on such instruments as accordion, vibraphone, -French- horn, and theremin. Joining them in this endeavor will be special guests DB Pedersen on voice, Melissa Reiser on saxophones, and Michael Brenneis on percussion. AND, various SOCK PUPPETS will be performing highlights from the film noir classic/pulp novel Double Indemnity, including the original ending that THE CENSORS DIDN-T WANT YOU TO SEE!

For the low, low price of SIX DOLLARS, you can-t afford NOT to come!

SO, in summary:
