Wooooo-weeeee!

Well, we knew we were asking for it with a theme like “Work: Boss Stories,” but as usual we got more than we could’ve ever expected.  A special thanks to Elizabeth Anderson, Shannon Cleary, Mark Mobley, Anna Oakley, Lindsey Price, and Linda Goodman for being our setlist and offering us everything from the painfully hilarious to the thoughtfully poignant.  That’s why we love all you guys…. And, we got three awesome stories out of the Hat!

Mark your calendars for July 9th.  You do not want to miss it –> Theme: Heartbreak Hotel.  Yes, we’re going there.  Put your thinking caps on and send us an email with story ideas at secretlyall@gmail.com … we look forward to it.

As always…we’re listening….

 

heading on down the line

Yup, last night was truly amazing.  Because y’all showed up we raised almost $400 to donate to Caritas.  That is awesome.

Special thanks to our setlist: Richard King, Les Schaffer, Melissa Watts, Amira Pierce and Jamie Seagraves.

We got to hear FIVE Hat stories this time around, and they were fantastic as well.

Next event is May 7th, theme – Work: Boss Stories.  Want to tell?  Email us at secretlyall@gmail.com

Happy Birthday

…to WRIR!

We helped celebrate this past Friday with a mini SY event based on the theme of birthdays. And the stories were fantastic.  Extra special thanks to our tellers: Shannon Cleary, Anthony Burcher, Dustin King, Ed Trask, and Elizabeth Anderson.  The show was recorded and we are working on getting the stories up on the site, as well as some sweet photos of our tellers in action.

And, thanks to WRIR, of course, for including us in their annually awesome event.

Next event is back at Balliceaux, March 5th, at 7:30.  The theme is…(drum roll): Road Tripping.

So come!  Listen! And, if you have a good road trip story, throw your name in The Hat and maybe we’ll get to hear your story!

….we’re listening….

Found find…

found this in the hat during the second half of “found” themed night…pretty appropriate…

Awesome stories.  Last night’s event went above and beyond.  Thanks so much to all of our tellers, as well as all the listeners who had Balliceaux’s backroom packed!

Check out “i could go on and on” for some juicy tidbits and highlights, and keep an eye on our site: we’ll be posting audio soon!

Next event: “Roadtripping.”

Tomorrow!

We are greatly looking forward to our event tomorrow — the first of 2012.  7pm.  At Balliceaux.  As usual.  The door is $3, all money going directly to Food Not Bombs.

The theme: FOUND

A letter not meant for you, but curiously fitting and inspirational.
An old lunch box you thought your parents gave to good will.
A priceless piece in the junk box of an antique store.

Stories about fate and how small objects/ people / places make for larger connections in this crazy mixed up world…and how you find them or they find you.

Come. Listen.  See you tomorrow.

“Show me the Honey Hole”

Last Monday’s event was, as to be expected, awesome. Thanks to Les, Anthony, Richard, Denise, and Chris Bopst we had stories that ranged in style, delivery, and of course, what the interpretation of the Honey Hole was.
Our Hat tellers were also quite impressive. Hopefully we will be able to get them back up behind the microphone soon…

AND, we got it all on tape! The stories are up on facebook and hopefully we’ll get them up here soon, too.

Our next event’s theme is “Found.” Email us with ideas for your stories.

See you soon!
