The Beard Ball

There are blogs and websites about them. You can buy fake ones on etsy. The hipster grifter even had a tattoo devoted to them. New Yorkers, it seems, have a beard thing. And now they have a ball to celebrate.
The folks behind the blog Build a Beard are throwing the Beard Ball, next Thursday, Feb 4 at the bar Matchless in Greenpoint. The event will feature three bearded bands (Transatlantic FM, Quiet Loudly, and Julius C) a raffle and drink specials. Tickets are $5, and go to support RightRides.org, that awesome group that gives late night rides home to “women, LGBTQ and gender nonconforming individuals.”
Can’t grow a full beard? Don’t worry. They promise the event will be welcoming of all types of facial hair creativity.
The Beard Ball ($5 – tickets here) is at Matchless Thursday, Feb 4th at 8pm. [via]
