Hey, this is cool. Apparently we were part of a trend that’s ending a drought of women touring to Staten Island. We might not all be women but we’re happy to advance the cause!

Press for Snug Underground!
February 17th, 2010 maggie
We are getting ready to head out to the Snug Underground Festival in Staten Island. And by “getting ready” I mean counting t-shirts, sewing new bras, making pom-poms, visiting staples, and trying to fit my nasty old ankle wrap into a four inch ankle strap heel. And that’s just me. Across town M. Hanora is rolling around with a cinder block and Rachel is curating our collection of beer bottles and pizza boxes. As for the rest of the crew, I know only what twitter tells me…. Read an article about the festival, including an interview with yours truly here.
August Recap, Part 2: Philadelphia and Baltimore
September 8th, 2009 maggieThis year’s mini tour was off to a great start when we left Somerville almost on schedule in our big old SUV with the fifth box on top. We had a tasty, healthy, culturally appropriative lunch in Nyack, and then there was traffic. All the way to Philadelphia, an hour and a half late. Thank goodness the folks at the Rotunda were chill and helpful.
On this trip:
1. Maggie made peace with the GPS.
2. We had birthday peach pie made by some Amish.
3. We ate yellow watermelon.
4. We learned that Ace of Cakes will not let just anyone in.
5. Maggie finished a pair of socks while trying not to freak out about being late.

Hanging out in Baltimore with femmes and friends of the blow-up and humanoid variety in 2008.
Thanks to everyone who came out for our Dyke Night Show! We had such a fun time. Then we got up eeeaaarrrly Sunday morning for a photo shoot at Jamaica Pond, which took the Femme Show’s love of nature to new heights.
I have officially cloned myself, so one copy of me is staying in Boston to get ready to bring you the all-new october show, and the other copy is going on tour! First stop, Philadelphia and Baltimore with fab femmes and friends. Check it out here.
