Hot Roxx Hexmas @ The Hexagon w/ Velvet Davenport, Dante & The Lobster, Invisible Boy, Secret Language

Wed 12/23 @ the Hex, 9:00, FREE

Hot Roxx Hexmas Hextravaganza!!

Featuring…
Velvet Davenport•Dante and the Lobster•Invisible Boy•Secret Language•DJs MacKu$, Jen, and Nick

Remember two years ago, the first time you heard Marc Bolan wishing you a super funk Christmas and a golden New Year? Or last year when you saw a giant Bumble dancing to the unnamed super group? If yes, then you already know what you’d be missing by not attending this year’s Hot Roxx Hexmas Hextravaganza… If no, then, do you really want to read a message next year that asks if you remember something even more ridiculously awesome and regretting that you missed it too? This year’s show features the triumphant return of Secret Language (Colin of Vampire Hands) to the MPLS stage; plus indelible holiday covers by Hot Roxx darling, Invisible Boy; and the electrifying sounds of local psych faves Dante and the Lobster and Velvet Davenport. Not to mention live DJS (MacKu$, Jen and Nick) and Mixologist Gaylord serving drinks (this is unprecedented) in the band room. This year’s show is bigger than all of us. Don’t miss out.
