Benefit for Oakland Cemetery

This sounds like fun:

You are invited to a decadent soirée at the marvelous Le Moulin Rouge at Paris on Ponce Antiques, Atlanta, GA on Tuesday, October 28th. San Francisco's wicked chanteuse/pianist Jill Tracy and enthralling violinist Paul Mercer, who is also performing with The Ghosts Project ensemble.

The evening will feature plenty of delicious edibles from a number of local caterers and restaurants, as well as beer, wine, cocktails and nonalcoholic drinks. I will be serving a special potion just for this event, a cocktail contributed by Ernest Hemingway to a 1935 recipe collection called "Death in the Afternoon": absinthe and champagne. Admittance is ALL AGES! Halloween costumes and elegant/gothic/dress up are encouraged to befit the decadent atmosphere. There will also be performances by members of the Dames Aflame Burlesque Dancers and the spectacularly bizarre Feed & Seed Marching Abominable. Prizes will be raffled off throughout the evening! We encourage you to come out and help rebuild one of Atlanta's most beautiful historical locations, which suffered tremendous damage during the tornado which struck downtown last spring. Tickets start at $35 (which includes food and drink tickets) up to $200 for "R.I.P." tables. There are only 200 tickets available, and tickets will not be sold at the door.
