GGRD on TV!

I know this is a Sweet Action blog, so I'll try not to talk about Gotham Girls too much, but I am tremendously excited--I just appeared on an NBC spot:



I'm the one whose name appears to be "Fresh Meat."


And while I'm talking about GGRD, there are a few upcoming events you should check out:

2008 Derbytaunt and Season Kick-off Fundraiser:
Dames of Derby - Film Noir Style Dance Party
Sunday, April 13
Location: Southpaw (125 5th Ave. - Park Slope, Brooklyn)
Doors: 7:30/Fresh Meat Induction 9:30
Tickets: $14 Adv./$18 Day Of
Tickets available online at http://www.spsounds.com/index.html
*Drink specials (TBA) and GGRD prizes all night long!

Unfortunately, although I'm Fresh Meat, I will not be there. Alas, my job is sending me to London. Go and find out what team I'm on before I do!

And for all you derby fans out there, here is the first bout:

LIU-Brooklyn’s Schwartz Athletic Center
1 University Plaza (corner Flatbush and DeKalb Aves)

More info available on the GGRD Hotline: (646) 405-9803

After the game, join us at Manitoba's (99 Ave. B near 6th Street in Manhattan) to toast victory or drown defeat with your most favorite derby divas. More info at manitobas.com.

It should be amazing. The GGRD All-Stars will be facing off against the Liberty Belles from Philadelphia. The all-star team is, as you might suspect, phenomenal. There's also going to be a 30 minute demo bout with the newly formed, not-yet-named GGRD B-team skating against the Stepford Sabotage from CT.

I can't wait until it gets a tiny bit warmer and I can start skating outside again with all you lovely ladies.

Cheers,
Gogo
