...you might want to spell his name right in your ad. Oh, and these guys' name, too.

Just sayin'.

But, hey, we all make mistakes. Like, for instance: We screwed up and said the Tom Petty show next Wednesday night is taking place at Superpages.com Center when it's really going down at American Airlines Center.

Yeeeeeeesh. Rough week, huh? --Pete Freedman

Check out the Dada MySpace page for more glaring examples of illiteracy and ineptitude. Still a fun place to hang out, though. I suppose that's all that matters.
stop picking on Club DoDo
Maybe that could be the running gag for the ad....which name will they misspell this week! Tune in to find out!
Errr... I meant "Castello". (Enter Sarcasm here.). Bob, even though you were being sarcastic, the answer is, yes. Someone is playing Accidents will happen. Hah! Carry on...
Yo Pete! Thanks for plugging the Elvis Costello show. Luckily Ben had changed the name from "Elvis Castillo Tribute" to "Elvis Costello" before you posted their ad. See you there, Holmes!
and last i checked Sean Kirkpatrick only had one "t" in his last name.
Ned, Just who are you referring to? You better get your facts straight before you start slandering someone.....jerk!
Yes, Joe, you need to be a little more respectful of anyone who leaves her husband because her friends look like they're having a lot of fun in a downtown warehouse space.
Well said, Moire. People can have their opinions but on the same note, other people are actually doing the work so hooray for Dada and its newest owners. However, their ads are striking me as a bit Granada-ish. Or is it just me? And can I get a hausfraus on rye?
I think the new incarnation of Dada has had some obvious growing pains, but those folks are doing great work. They've been up against some formidable odds, but have so far managed to run a respectable club that lives up to its history, remain productive and valuable members of a revived community, and have done it all with class. Joe, have some decency.
Hey Joe, I'm not a "middle aged hausfraus", but you are a jerk!
Guess that's what happens when middle aged hausfraus with unsatisfying lives in the 'burbs get a'hold of bars and try to run 'em.
I wonder if someone will play " Acidents willl Hapin"?
Apparently "acoustic" is also very difficult to spell (8/27 show).
Hey, at least they got the Elvis part right!
