It hardly seems like St. Patrick’s Day at all here in Winston-Salem…especially compared to my former city of residence, Savannah, Georgia, site of the second-largest St. Pat’s parade in America.

Here’s an invite I did for a party in Savannah a couple of years ago. It features “Shamrock Squid,” a (supposedly) public domain alt-comics character. The balcony on the house in the last panel is attached to the apartment we lived in.

Barring Savannah, if I could be anywhere else for St. Pat’s, I’d have to be in Times Square, for the sold out Pogues show tonight.
