Lola Balatro has
long been identified by scholars and philosophers as The Best Thing*.
According to press accounts, “hook-laden earnestness proves the trademark of these enigmatic
troubadours, whose lyrical imagery skillfully melds the profundity of a poet
laureate with the libido of a longshoreman.”
-- Longshoreman Quarterly,
2010.
We at Foz the Hook do
not challenge this assertion, but rather celebrate it! We have had the privilege of playing with
Lola away back in October of 2010 at Foz
the Hook’s Freakshowcase. You will
remember that show because that was the show – a show that also featured the
Killer, Ever Mainard – that was the
show where you finally learned to have faith in America again, after two long
years of recession.
Did Foz the Hook, Ever Mainard, or Lola Balatro demand
payment for ending The Great Recession?
Of course not! We are patriots!
But now it is time to pay FtH and Lola Balatro a solid. Get on out to the Laughingstock: The Chicagocomedy Music Festival on Sunday, August 25. Buy your tickets from this guy! Bring your Mom. Foz has a thing for your Mom*
