DOUG STANHOPE
Doug Stanhope is a stand-up comic. Has been since 1990.
His material ranges from true-life graphic perversion to volatile social criticism. Doug is vulgar, opinionated, brutally honest and shockingly uninhibited and is certainly not for everybody. He started his career in Las Vegas doing jack-off jokes for free drinks. Not much has changed, save for the mullet.
Doug has built a wide-ranging television resume of dubious achievement. He hosted The Man Show on Comedy Central as well as the ubiquitous pseudo-porn for the sexually crippled, “Girls Gone Wild”, both solely and shamelessly for financial gain. He has appeared on “The Howard Stern Show”, “Comedy Central Presents”, “Premium Blend”, NBC’s “Late Friday”, “Spy TV” BBC’s “Floor Show Live” while on ecstasy and wrote, produced and starred in Fox’s “Invasion of the Hidden Cameras” and has even popped up on “Fox News with Greta Van Sustern” and “The Jerry Springer Show”. In 2010, he was the Voice of America on the BBC’s “Charlie Brooker’s Newswipe”.
None of it compares to seeing him live; Doug is a two-time winner of Time Out New York’s “Best Comedy Performance of the Year”.
He’s appeared at multiple major comedy festivals including Montreal Just For Laughs, Aspen US Comedy Arts, Chicago Comedy Festival and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Scotland, where he won the Strathmore Press Award for Best Act of the Fringe in his debut year.
Selected by both Variety and the Hollywood Reporter as one of the Top Ten Comics To Watch, Doug has released four CDs and three DVDs including “No Refunds” on Showtime in 2008.

SLUGO
Thomas ‘DJ Slugo’ Kendricks was born on Chicago’s South Side. With 20 plus years in the game, he is one of the original creators of a music style commonly known as ghetto house or more recently regarded as juke. Deriving from old school house, it is steeped with nuances from ghetto life traditions and descriptions. In 1992, he released his first truly professional mix tape, Ghetto Mix Part III. This tape landed in the hands of Ray Barney, CEO of the infamous Chicago-based Dance Mania label, resulting in a long stream of releases there, and affording DJ Slugo the freedom to form his own outlet, Subterranean Playhouse. Stepping to his own beat, he has remained a tireless staple of the genre he helped shape.

DON’T PANIC
Don’t Panic is a Rock & Roll / Pop Punk band that formed in the Pocono Mountains in northeast Pennsylvania in 2019. Named after the Douglas Adams’ favorite novel of founding vocalist/guitarist Ted Felicetti, Don’t Panic began as an endeavor, where making genuine, fun rock and roll music came first and everything else second. Joining Ted were Keith Slader (bass), Anthony Paesano (drums) and AJ Larsen (guitar).
The band released their first full length effort ‘See Through It All‘ in 2020 and then a follow up full length with ‘Dark Horse‘ in Sept 2021 drawing off their collective influences from bands like Bayside, Millencolin, Foo Fighters, & No Use for a Name. Don’t Panic is currently in the studio recording what will be their third full length album after a very busy 2022 of touring.
DIVEBAR
Williams traveling through time and having a beer with Joe Strummer. Then imagine that they decide to rent a Pinto and drive cross-country, and along the way they pick up Keith Richards and Robbie Robertson. Somewhere outside of Wichita, they run into Aretha Franklin, and she decides to come along for the ride too, but since it’s only a 4-seater, they have to strap her to the roof. None of that describes Divebar in the least, but it’s hilarious to picture two dead guys driving a Pinto while the Queen of Soul rides on the roof like Teen Wolf. Also, she’s wearing a halter top.
Actually, Divebar is an alt-country band out of Chicago, similar in style to Wilco and Lucinda Williams. Since their formation in 2003, Divebar has built an impressive following with their crafty songwriting, rich vocal harmonies, and energetic stage presence. Their unique sound is influenced by each of the band members’ diverse upbringings – the music conjures up images of the vast plains of Kelly’s Texas, the rich farmland of Chris’ Iowa, the carefree charm of Matt and Dan’s small-town Wisconsin, and the ample parking of Aric’s Evanston.
