Greetings from the Haberdashery Multiverse! 🖖🏼 Come As You Are . . . and stay where ya'll at!
This past week two legendary minstrels, jazz patriarch Ellis Marsalis, and R&B great Bill Withers, were called home for their final performance . . . another reminder of how nourishing the arts have been for all of us during each of our respective shelter-in-place odysseys. Please join us tonight as we pay homage to Ellis and Bill, sharing some virtual space and fellowship from our individual multiverses.We will kick off the evening (at 7:30pm sharp) with a video tutorial on how to conjure a handcrafted 'Perfect' Manahattan . . . crisp and dry, like we like'm. The City and State of New York are staring down the barrel of a tough few weeks ahead, so we will also be raising a toast to wish Manhattan the strength and fortitude to persevere.
You know it is a dangerous world out there when picnic tables are deemed a public hazard! But just like last week, we invite you to join us virtually from your safe haven at The Last Resort on our dedicated Haberdashery Zoom channel (Meeting ID#: 510 646 5316) at 7:30pm PST. Help us pay musical homage to Ellis or Bill by playing a song for your fellow Haberdites ... and/or just sing along from your respective CAYA Cave.Feel free to fluidly join the conversation or melt back to your corner of the Multiverse whenever you like. We will maintain the wormhole opening all evening (until about midnight), or until after the last Haberdite signs off. If you have experienced any revelations on how we may harness the endless variety the cosmos for the benefit of future Cocktail Hours, please share those with us.
We are all making this up as we go. But, with a long pour of compassion, a shot of empathy, and more-than-a-dash of patience . . . though we may emerge shaken or stirred . . . our community of Haberdites will navigate this gauntlet of isolation with poise and dignity . . . and an adult beverage in hand.
Now be safe out there . . . and above all else . . . be kind to one another, my fellow Haberdites!
Yours,
Los Cabañeros
