==Description of the Band==

what do you get when you melt down a rockabilly band and an accordion, thoroughly heat them and mix them into a bluegrass, country, R&B, batter? Stirring continuously, pour the slurry back  into rock and roll mold and trot it all out a few weeks before christmas, while still piping hot?

you get the main street museums second christmas party and live music cavalcade featuring the sonorous bumps and grinds of the incomparable pariah beat!
the beat is an inventive, traditional band that smashes all traditions.
they are rock band that plays bluegrass music and a country band thats a hardcore hoedown.
more than anything else though, they are smart, fun and funny.

==Cross Dressing==

and the boys even wear panty-hose.
how could we not love them!

come and see yourself.

==Outlandish Decorations==

best wishes for the pagan and any other holidays that are being celebrated this time of year.
our tree is up and is huge and outlandish. its covered with antique blown-glass birds and (contemporary) plastic monkeys.
