Spacehog @ The 2012 Bamboozle Festival!
Bamboozle used as a verb…..
1.to deceive or get the better of (someone) by trickery, flattery, or the like; humbug; hoodwink (often followed by into ): They bamboozled us into joining the club. Synonyms: gyp, dupe, trick, cheat, swindle, defraud, flimflam, hoax, gull, rook; delude, mislead, fool.
2. to perplex; mystify; confound. Synonyms: befog, bewilder, puzzle, baffle, dumbfound.
Bamboozle as in New Jersey’s Bamboozle Festival however apparently means a magical three day oceanfront festival, with a main stage on the beach and eight other stages covering the best in mainstream pop, rock, metal, comedy and more.
And this all means what to you, Spacehog fans? It means yet another chance to see Spacehog!
Just announced today on Spacehog’s Official Facebook page, Spacehog plays the Bamboozle Festival, Sunday, May 20th, 4:00 on the Paramount Stage.
One day passes, 3 day passes, VIP passes, Undying Love, and Shuttle Passes all can be bought by clicking here.
Okay, I was totally bamboozling you about the undying love (everyone knows you can’t buy love, silly) but the rest is all true.
Have fun at the beach and wear your sunscreen! ~ Charlotte x

Last minute notice ….. Timo Ellis @ Arlene’s Grocery Tonight!
For those in the NYC area, do you know where Arlene’s Grocery is? Of course, you do (psst…. it’s 95 Stanton Street). And that is exactly where you should be tonight at 8:00. Why? Because it’s free, you should get out more often, and because Timo Ellis, the newest member of Spacehog will be performing there!!!
In his own words (lifted shamelessly from the Facebook event page) it will be..
“27 minutes of glory, featuring live furniture, improvised blanket, and music spanning my (vast) oeuvre (including some straight-up punk rock, some ballads, a caustic disco song, + a bit of The Jacksons and Helen Reddy thrown in fer good measure/ to great effect..!) With the incredible Alexicalibur following at 9pm; a more entertaining and by turns confrontational, clever and ruminative/ earnest show you will not see ANY other time soon!! And it’s fukin’ f-reeeeeeeeeee!!!”
Have a great time tonight New Yorkers!!
