Hi, it’s Mandey. Today marks Rougarou/Imbibe’s ten year anniversary. I am in the process of writing a verbose testament* to my family, my staff, my customers, my friends, and my peers about what exactly this means to me, but suffice it to say that I love you all and you’re the reason I’m still here. If you’d like to, come on in tonight or Friday or Saturday (weather willing) and say hey. We have live music all three nights. If you REALLY wanna celebrate, we’re basically wrapping Zog’s 15th, Rou’s 10th, and Mardi Gras into one giant fun time on 2/17, Mardi Gras proper. More info to come.
*I seriously am writing a long thing, and it’ll be real sweet but also real honest and sometimes harrowing, and if that seems boring to you, then it probably is. It’s like hearing someone else’s acid trip story you weren’t present for or someone’s dream that you weren’t in. I get it. But if you feel like you’d like to take a peek into my Junk Drawer Brain, keep a look out.
