This Friday, the Maybenauts take over Berwyn. BERRRRRRRWYN!
They may have gotten rid of the tire spire, but we'll still be bringing the rock.
Friday evening (March 26) we play the grand opening party for Horse-Drawn Productions, where we recorded Big Bang!
After that, we're gonna run a couple miles up Ogden and bring our ginormous show to the tiniest stage in Chicagoland!
Come check it out, enjoy some craft brews, and dance with us! We'll be rocking alongside our good friends the Demerits.
The bar is called Cigars & Stripes and is located at 6715 West Ogden Avenue in Berwyn, IL. There's no cover, but it is 21 and up! Show starts around 9:30.
Also, check out this sweet new teaser for Big Bang!!

February 11th @ the Abbey!
Missed us at Lincoln Hall? That's a shame, because it ROCKED!
But you've got another chance this week:

It's our anniversary show! The Maybenauts are one year old.
First anniversary gifts are traditionally paper in the US. Draw us a picture and get a special surprise at the show!
In the UK, first anniversary gifts are cotton. Because of this photo, we will also accept cotton balls and Q-tips as anniversary gifts!
According to Wikipedia, the "modern American" first anniversary gift is clocks. We will also be accepting clocks and photographs of Flava Flav as well.
Really, you'll get your surprise just for showing up, but we like to encourage our fans to be creative!
Maybefits tees are ready, too! They'll be for sale at the Abbey show, so if you didn't get yours presale (or if you did, and want to pick it up) come on out!
