Tonight at Mercy Lounge, it's the Moustache May wrap party, featuring How I Became the Bomb, Ghostfinger & Codaphonic, where you can be surrounded by Thomas Magnums, pay lip service to facial adornment and check out Richie Kirkpatrick's bent fur. Presented by the guy who keeps that running list of cool shit, Yewknee.

It was a blast to participate in such awesomeness, and I recommend that everyone should do it. Everyone should do it right now.

this has truly been one of the greatest months of my life. everyone needs a moustache...men, women, children (except women and children). the comraderie of facial hair enthusiasts are some of the best and friendliest people ever. so long mustache may and i hope to see everyone back next year.

Actually, if by some chance children could grow mustaches, I'd be totally supportive.

Stache on, brothers and sisters! If your lip is clean, find a new scene.

What about that chick in Le Tigre? Can't she grow one?

I grew one in Philly over the winter cause I kept getting carded and it was fucking cold. Got back to Nasher and realized it was pretty fun to compare stories. They have personalities all their own. Mine is a little pirate.

The male tendency to name their extensions lives on!

Yes, that chick in Le Tigre can. But she's the exception.

Tonight's gonna be hilarious. There's something inherently sleazy about a moustache, and I mean that in the best way.

That's a pretty fantastic poster, by the way.

Beards are better. And I'm not just saying that 'cause I've had one for 8 years.

I prefer a nice wet face-pussy myself.

personally, i think you're all being a little insensitive to those men (grown ass men) among us whose faces simply can't churn out enough follicle to substantiate a decent 'stache.

just saying. some of us are feeling pretty left out.
but just you wait until "bad teenager mustache" week. you'll be plucking away with your mom's tweezers while my sparsley sweet upper lip is basking in all its prepubescent-esque glory.

Well, my pathetic excuse for a 'stache didn't stop me from participating in '05. And apparently it didn't stop Jay Leo from participating in '07. It's all about the brotherhood, Casio.

BGM-Acronym for "Big Gay Mustache". Refers to a large, walrus-ish, barbershop quartet-ish, or cowboy-ish mustache. It is a style MUCH loved by gay men, particularly "bear" or "big daddy" gay men. So if a stache is GAY, what is a beard? WOO_HOO! Lots of packin goin on in the ville:) Enjoy the hair boys. It's your right. Nashville is for equal rights! Meet me at the CHUTE for drinks!

So did I just get called a fag? That hasn't happened since High School. Kinda leaves me nostalgic... and nauseated.

I didn't even know about Mustache May when I started sporting the stache. I made a pact that I wouldn't shave it until I got my liquor license here at the 5 Spot. I've grown fond of it though and I think it's going to stay for a while.

The guy behind the counter at Roly Poly today was wearing a Ghostfinger tshirt. He said he got it at the show last night. I wish I could've gone.

I haven't shaved my upper lip since April 29th, and my moustache is just now starting to be visible from across the room. Next year I'm going to remember to get a six month head start.
