Wednesday, March 12   11:00 p.m.
The Parish   (214B E 6th St)
Walter Meego is a voyage into pop music - it's new but familiar. Walter Meego is like the most delicious sandwich ever made; except its even better than that. It's like the sound of a record collection exploding into a million shards of awesome. It's like Charles Bronson, Steve Mcqueen, and Chuck Norris rolled up into one sweet, punishing bad-ass. Imagine a tsunami of malt liquor - we're even more intoxicating than that. We beat the '96 Bulls 15 times... and they only lost 10 that year! We once collectively ate 700 pounds of chicken red curry, had a brisk walk, and rounded off the day with 12 additional hours of platinum-record-making studio sessions. Hold on... Pharrell's on the other line... Someone once tried to declare us the winners of the 1960 U.S. Hockey Olympic gold. We insisted that we weren't alive at the time. It didn't matter. We're like the ultimate evolutionary champion - like a wicked combination of Sabre-Toothed Tiger, Polar Bear, and Hippo in one killer beast. Ever heard of Ghengis Khan? We ate him. We also ate all of Jamaica once. And it tasted good.
