Went to see the 1900s tape an appearance on the public access dance show "Chic-A-Go-Go!" I'd never seen it before but it apparently has quite a cult following. Kids, old people, hipsters in weird costumes, all dancing in front of a brightly colored painting of the Chicago city-scape. Bands come on and lip sync to their songs. A rat puppet tells knock knock jokes. An asian woman with some pretty intense arm tattoos hosts.
The 1900s decided to go with a camping theme. They brought a tent and a fake campfire. Jeanine almost wore a bear costume but her bear costume connection fell through at the last minute.
Nick and Katie brought their daughter, Jane, who danced and danced as they taped three straight episodes. I even danced a little myself.

My friend's band, Stag Party (now defunct, or rather "defunked") played the show a couple of years ago. He brought his dad with him, and he was wrapped in Christmas lights, dancing along. It was glorious.

Man, the 1900s are everywhere these days! I once did a video for Ed's other band, Plane. Ed's a cool cat.
The host of the show is named Mia. She's in that play, The Intelligent Design of Jenny Chow. It's an awesome flick.
