Ready, Set, ROCK
October 21st, 2003
With another show sneaking up on us, the Setbacks have been busy prepping. We've had some unusual stumbling blocks though.
Last week, posters were put up on Bank Street one night, only to be torn down the next day. And this wasn't the normal post cleaning, as it seemed only our posters had been torn. Were we being targetted?
Then we noticed that one other poster in particular had been torn as well. A poster for a Gay and Lesbian Film Festival. I should tell you now that the posters we made for this show had a picture of a drag queen on it (Steve thought it was clever because we were playing with Full White DRAG), and also lipstick kisses.
That same day Natalie from the Sorority Song Record Label noticed a kid taking down our posters, and when she confronted him, he wouldn't give a straight answer (no pun intended).
So The Setbacks have been targetted by some sort of anti-gay movement. Odd.
