Crying over spilt ink

Is there anything worse than getting a hit in the paper to promote your upcoming gig… and then having that gig cancelled? We think not.

But that is precisely what has happened!

The Male Half and The Female Half were scheduled to co-headline a spectacular Farewell Weekend at the Rascals Comedy Club at the Crowne Plaza in Cherry Hill– not six minutes from our home and not 1,500 feet from the border of The Male Half’s boyhood home of Pennsauken, NJ– when the powers that be pulled the plug on the club.

In the July issue of All Around Pennsauken (which is distributed to the the 35,000 residents of Pennsauken and to the 5,000 residents of Merchantville borough), there was a lovely clip– complete with color photo!– about the upcoming event! Back in June, when we found out about the cancellation, we notified the editors as soon as we could, but apparently, we booted the deadline.

Sad! Ink spilt for nothing! Perhaps good will with the local media destroyed forever and always! It makes the already disheartening closure of a decent local club all that much more depressing!
