A local pro-communist publication, "The Voice of the Proletariat" (also known as Creative Loafing), has picked up on our revolutionary endeavors and send their correspondents to our agitation event - Moskow Diskow vol 2, which took place at The Mark Ultralounge on Aug 24th. The result is this inspirational article which highlights all complexity of our multifaceted propaganda work conducted at The Mark, mainly concentrating on the beauty of underaged lap-dances and freeflowing warm vodka. It truly warmed our hearts to hear such a positive response from this local publication.
Our affair with this fine communist publication did not end with the article, in the following issue a concerned citizen wrote a letter to the editor regarding the aforementioned article. In this letter they proceeded to condemn all the things that we here at the Department of Agitation of Propaganda cherish dearly - hegemony, oversimplification and bare midriff. For these are truly the tools of the Revolution! Please disregard this letter, for it is an attempt to undermine the Party progress.
If you have not plotzed in your pants today yet, now is a good time. Because the patriarch of gypsy punk - Eugene Hutz (Женя Николаев) has added Atlanta to his North American tour. That's right, Atlanta will get ravaged by Gogol Bordello's Super Taranta! sound on October 19th. Gogol Bordello has had a profound impact on our music selection and has been a catalyst for the popularization of the gypsy-Balkan sound all over the world. This show is a must for any....eh fuck, this show is a must for everybody!
The show will be at The Roxy, Friday, October 19th. The tickets will be available over here.
(If you're not familiar with Gogol Bordello, you should probably go here.)

Here is some fresh video for Ides from March, we drank, we rhymed, we roasted a lamb. It was wholesome debauchery as usual. The photos are here for your enjoyment.

March 8th is upon us. For some of us it has deep, emotional, Freudian meanings, for some it means nothing. If you fall into the second category go read the post below this one and then come out next Thursday to the Side Door Lounge and rejoice. Sweet, ear-pleasing, ass-shaking, women-adoring sounds will be provided by DJ Oleg, and the Greencard DJs. Free entry, spontaneous drink specials, Side Door Lounge ambiance, and hot balkan beats will provide fertile grounds for getting your lady (or some one else's lady) spunk-dunk while proving how much you really care about emancipation. And if you are a lady then this is your holiday, come out and be praised and celebrated.
Thursday, March 8th, 10pm Side Door Lounge [same building as Landmark Diner]
Clara Zetkin, spiritual grandmother of many great revolutionizes of the last century, hung out with Russian revolutionaries in Paris and may have originated Women’s Day.
Celebrated by women of all reputes for a hundred years, International Women’s Day (IWD) is an undying symbol of ultimate penis-envy and desire to equate the unequal. Dorks always had difficulty attracting ladies, in 1909 leaders of the Socialist Party of America declared March 8 International Woman’s Day in a vain effort to get laid more often.
Some say that the real origins lay in the birthday celebration of Clara Zetkin, a major figure in early socialism. It was Paris, sometime prior to 1910, when she and other socialists went rowdy after the party and when confronted by police they explained themselves by saying that they were celebrating IWD. Police still arrested them prompting other socialists to public demonstrations and maybe a bomb or two. This proves that even back in the day Russians were great with making excuses to be drunk and police in the wimpy nation of France is not to be joked with. Be it as it may, back in the day when women entered the workforce in significant numbers they begun to demand rights such as equal treatment under law and voting, March 8 became their day of counting the obstacles to overcome.
In Soviet Union, where all sexes were equally screwed by the system, the day became the equivalent of Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day combined, plus the liquor. In school, boys collected money and prepared small presents for all the girls. They were things like pens and erasers and stuff, all the same of course. Smaller children drew pictures of flowers for their mothers and husbands shaved and abstained from overconsuming alcohol as a sign of respect for their wives and lovers.
Today the holiday is observed by socialists and normal people alike, especially in the Russian territories including temporary-independent nations of Ukraine, Poland, Belarus, Latvia and others less significant. Let’s admit it, women have achieved significant gains. Even in dark and dump corners of the world women advanced their interests to the point that would be hard to imagine a century ago. For instance, in Kazakhstan women can now ride INSIDE the bus!
Comrade, celebrate our partners of female persuasion and pretend for a day that they are not only equal but truly superior to us. Bring flowers to your girlfriend and call your mother. Celebrate all things girly but do not give disease a chance.
