Vegetarian Star

Just a little reminder if you live near New York and you haven’t already made plans for the weekend. And if you have, just tell your date a “family affair,” came up. Better yet, take him or her with you to the benefit for the Woodstock (N.Y.) Farm Animal Sanctuary featuring cartoonist Dan Piraro and singer and songwriter Nellie McKay. Hopefully, Nellie will grab something nutritious to eat before her performance, versus her usual fare of french fries.

The most bizarre cartoonist will do his 45 minute comedy act followed by the feminist who sings about having no sense of humor when in comes to equal pay and ending child abuse.

Tickets are $20, doors open at 7pm, and it’s first come, first be entertained with a night of awesome vegan performers. Go to their website for any other information you might need to convince yourself that this is going to be one fun night.

English born singer-songwriter Nellie McKay has won praise for her albums such as Get Away From Me, Pretty Little Head, and Obligatory Villagers. She also was a stand up comedian. A beautiful woman, who sings well, is funny, and  vegan? Some people have too much of an advantage.

“I’m a junkatarian meaning I’m vegan to the best of my ability but I like to order French fries all the time. To displace feminism, I don’t like to cook much so I order out a lot and often I order French fries. I find being a vegan very hard. It’s a huge pain in the ass, everyday I try but it’s hard. But if everyone cuts down just a little, like cut one meat product out of your life or cut back a day of meat a week, that will make a change. I finally decided to become a vegan while I was eating a Sunday at Denny’s, I thought it’s time, I know whats going on, I need to make a change, it needs to happen. The animals, if they could, they’d thank you.”
