Nakia’s Annual Birthday Bash

Leave a comment

Straight from his press release:

To celebrate his 33rd birthday in style, Austin singer Nakia
is inviting a few of his closest friends – and anyone else who’d like
to attend – to a party on Wednesday, Feb. 20, at Jovita’s in South
Austin. “Nakia’s Annual Birthday Bash Celebration,” as it has come to
be known, kicks off at 6:30 p.m. with former Weary Boy Mario Matteoli, who will warm up the stage for an 8:30 performance by Nakia & His Southern Cousins. The birthday set will feature scheduled appearances by Monte Warden and Cella Blue of the White Ghost Shivers, plus a few other surprises.

Jovita is at 1619 South First St., (just south of the Colorado river) in Austin, TX. I know some of COL will be there. Will you?

Congratulations on your new podcast! I’m starting to listen.
I think I remember you from a Bears of San Antonio run in South Padre Island. That was a couple of years ago.
Keep up the good work.

Bears In The Media
Insomniac, The Late Show, and now Marketplace. For the life of me, I can’t remember how I came across this but Bears have now been highlighted in a segment for Marketplace. The segment also features Colossal Clothing, a Big and Tall Men’s wear outfitter, who is targeting the Bear Market.
