The Tour Moves Forward!


Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping are continuing on with the Shopocalypse Tour. The Thursday performance will go on as previously scheduled!

Be on the lookout for the Choir sometime in the early afternoon on Thursday around the Water Tower Place. They are planning on offering holiday carols to shoppers and retailers after all.

Mess Hall enthusiasts, you're all welcome to join in as before. They are planning to be downtown sometime before 2 pm if the driving is easy in the morning.

And please spread the good word about the Revival. Here's the details again:

The Shopocalypse Revival in Rogers Park!

Come watch a FREE, OFF SITE PERFORMANCE complete with the choir, musicians,
preaching, and more!

Doors open at 7 pm tonight at our neighborhood's friendliest reconciling
congregation hall...the United Church of Rogers Park.

Join us to see the Reverend preach, the choir sing, live music, and stop
shopping! This performance is free and open to the public.

The United Church of Rogers Park is about 4 blocks west of Mess Hall at 1545
W. Morse. Go to their website at www.ucrogerspark.org for directions

If the crowd is willing, everyone is welcome to come back to Mess Hall after
the performance for food and drink and a chance to chat to the choir "out of
the robes and collar". Join us!
