Sounds like my kind of party :) Drunken Santa Rampages through shopping malls, tourist traps, and other ghastly appurtenances of modern consumerism are becoming common in the States, put on by such sterling groups as the San Francisco Cacophony Society. Here's one happening in our own dear London:
Saturday 15th December sees the first Santacon UK and you are invited to attend. Santacon is an event invented in the US by the Cacophony Society and imported to these shores by Iain Aitch [Santa Two Eyes] and Ian Lowey [Santa One Eye]. Santacon involves 100 Santas on a drunken [if you like] spree through London. Starting in the north and working its way through the shopping centres, bars and plazas of our city. Santacon is a celebration of being Santa and the spirit of Xmas. It is also a social experiment, exploring how people react to 100 Santas moving en-masse. Dirty carols will be sung, Santas will carouse with each other and authorities will be perplexed. Mimes will be mooned, jugglers jiggled and fire eaters fucked with. Ho, ho, ho. Ho, ho, ho. His/her name is Santa and he dances on the Strand YOU are invited to be one of the 100. Santas can be of all ages, sexes and sizes [padding optional]. The only requirement is that you dress as Santa. Details will be forthcoming on where to score the cheapest Santa outfit, or you can make your own. Sexy Santas, hotpant Santas and wrestling masked Santas are all welcome. Please pass this mail on to anyone else who you feel may want to be Santa too. Santa has his own views on globalisation, the war and the like, but he will not be exhibiting those during Santacon. Santacon is not a protest or a demo, it is a works outing for the hardworking wannabe Santas amongst us. Ho, ho, ho. Ho, ho, ho. The Elves will not be attending, as they have overtime to do if they want to be able to feed their families. Sorry about that.
