Karaoke at The Beaver Sunday

I am hosting karaoke at The Beaver (1192 Queen West, Toronto)  this Sunday, 11-2...it'll be wiiiilllld and glittery!
oh, and here's something from issue 8 of Dirty Plotte, that's a teeny bopper me singing karaoke in the lower right corner. Comic by my old pal and collaborator Julian Lawrence.
