As the 1st 1ST ANNUAL CONGRESS OF CURIOUS PEOPLES chugs along. This Thursday and Friday promises to be jam packed with adventure and amazement.From the CIUSA website:
JOE COLEMAN, the world's strangest artist, will not be blowing himself up. And opening for Joe Coleman is ROGER KAUFMAN reveals a 90% tattooed body missing fingers and toes. IMAGINE a man who is removing all his tattoos... by amputation! HEAR such a man describe the descent into the world of complete helplessness and wanabe-ism. WHAT are the possibilities of an extreme amputee? Geek Love is not just a work of fiction...

He will astound you with performances by The Great Fredini (sword swallower), The Great Cindini (World's Preeminent Female Escapologist), Dirty Martini (award-winning burlesque star), and Shakesherheini (International Belly Dancing Sensation). The show will be co-hosted by world champion and world record holding trick roper and bull whip artist Chris McDaniel and Fran Capo, the world's fastest talking female.
