Sara Barron props.



The show is shaping up and I can't thank those of you who've already donated enough! New trailers are set to launch next week and the postcards just came in a huge box.

In the utterly flattering "toot-my-own-horn" department, acclaimed author (the hilarious "People Are Unappealing"), humorist and Moth host Sara Barron had this to say about the upcoming production:

"To sit in an audience and listen to David Crabb tell a story, is to think to oneself, 'Ah, yes: Now that's how it's done. Here's a man with an unfair amount of talent.' It's lucky for him, and lucky for those of us who get the chance to watch him work."

Wow, um... thanks. I'm blushing.

There's only one way to know if she's completely full of bull- come to the show on October 28th! Can't wait to see you.

Love, Bad Kid

West Memphis Three Freed!


BAD KID congratulates three of our all-time favorite Goths: Damien Echols, Jessie Misskelley, Jr., and Jason Baldwin. Otherwise known as the West Memphis Three. These poor guys were imprisoned by a bunch of Arkansas hicks for almost 20 years after they were falsely accused of murdering three boys in 1993. Apparently they wore too much black and owned way too many Metallica albums to be trusted.
They were finally freed this week in a bizarre scenario in which they plead guilty but were then allowed to maintain their innocence. It's apparently some bullshit, arcane legal device known as the "Alford Plea."
Lesson to be learned about hill-billies and bigots: After enough pressure, they'll do the right thing, but they'll do it "their way."

If you haven't seen the films about their plight; "Paradise Lost: The Robin hood Murders" and "Paradise Lost 2: Revelations," do it now. They're great documentaries that really convey the danger of living "differently" in a community of close-minded and under-educated people.
Congrats boys. Now go LIVE your lives!
