So now, please see what's going on!:

Mary of Box Five plays Durham, NC on 07/05/08!
Yahoo, our first out-of-town show! On July 5th, Miss Mary shall be playing a solo set at Bull City Headquarters in lovely Durham, NC with thetourist (YAY!), Charles Latham, and the Monologue Bombs. Show starts at 9pm, and tickets are five bucks. Plus, it's all-ages! Awesome!

Performers from the gig (including Mary!) will also appear on radio station WKNC the day before (July 4th), at 5pm. Who knows what kind of zany antics will ensue! :D Well, YOU will, if you stream the radio station live from your computer, by clicking here.
