Come As You Are; Inauguration Day Blues

Dear Lost Souls,

Need a stiff drink? . . . 

As California weeps, and the rest of the world ducks and covers in the fetal position, we begin a new era of ignorance and American bluster. Now, more than ever, we must protect and celebrate our established American institutions built on foundations of intellectual rigor, high character, generosity, and the open exchange of creative ideas (particularly of the alchemical variety). With over 15 years of solid history to demonstrate our steadfast constitution, the Haberdashery will continue to stand vigil with our weekly communion, providing the physical and intellectual space to incubate the critical exchange of ideas to counterbalance an executive branch committed to dismantling the mechanisms that protect and serve this country's vulnerable human, as well as natural resources.

Yes, my Left Coast Expatriates, Cocktail Hour in on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to motorcade on by for a quickie en route to your primary weekend inauguration … or to linger indefinitely.  

Yours,
Los CabaƱeros

CAYA; A Fresh Start Towards Armageddon!

Dear Lost Souls,

Ready to dive in to 2017!? It's the first Cocktail Hour of the year, and we are ringing it in with our usual brand of good fellowship and tantalizing relaxation. As the proud home of your Last Resort, our cabana boys stand ever vigilant; ready to dazzle you with alchemical fortitude, tirelessly low expectations, and inspiring leaps of frivolity. Yes, it may seem like we are staring down the barrel of Armageddon in 2017 ... but at The Haberdashery, we are always ready to offer you a comfortable deck chair ... just so you are sure to have a good seat for the end of the show. 

Yes, my Titanic Teetotalers, Cocktail Hour in on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to sail on by en route to your primary evening's calamity … or to linger indefinitely.  

Yours,
Los CabaƱeros
