My friend Patrick Runkle and his band Ganymede are playing a show this Saturday down in TriBeCa. The coolest part is they got Chuck Norris—the man, the legend, and apparently a big electropop fan—to write the official invite:
Dear Friends,
Rescuing prisoners of war in Vietnam and protecting the United States from Mexican invasion is tough work. I’m up to the challenge, but I can’t win this battle alone. That’s why I’m asking you to support my friend Patrick Runkle and his electro-disco band Ganymede in their quest to bring down the house at their forthcoming show at the ultra-hip Pussycat Lounge in Tribeca on Saturday, October 22 at 10 pm. Only by a strong, united showing of strength can we achieve our goals and protect our homeland.
Some “liberals” may think that my extra-judicial methods are too harsh, but I don’t see them complaining when their kids aren’t dying of marijuana overdoses because I dropped some Colombian drug dealer onto the pavement from a low-flying aircraft. No way! Patrick promises me this show will affirm your belief in a strict interpretation of the Constitution, and will also include ultra-low bass frequencies and a new video projection system.
So please, America is counting on you. Don’t let me down.
Best,
Chuck
I wouldn’t miss it for the world.
