Shadow Circus Creature Theatre, San Francisco 's most belligerent puppetry troupe is returning once more to the Climate Theater, bringing you a cornucopia of Holiday mayhem. Shadow Circus uses life-sized latex puppets to create a seething underworld of drugged-up dinosaurs, giant cockroaches and bizarre mythological beasts and engages them in scripts full of pop-culture parody and social satire.

Accompanying them are musical group Vagabondage, stand-up comedienne Lady Satan and escape artist Miss Bella Trixx.

The entire evening is hosted by Shadow Circus Creature Theatre; the most foul-mouthed, blasphemous, belligerent puppets to ever slither across a stage!

Wednesday, December 16th at 8:00 pm
The Climate Theater
285 9th Street
San Francisco, CA

Advanced tickets $10, $13 at the door

Advanced tickets are highly recommended, as pre-tickets have sold out at prior shows.

  Hello San Francisco! We, Vagabond Opera, are back in a month to grace the Edwardian Ball's 10th Anniversary show.

On Jan 22nd, we're playing!



For those who do not know, we bring to you Opera reinvented! Gypsy, cabaret, vaudeville, Eastern European, Yiddish, Balkan and more! In over 14 different languages, we bring in Bulgarian Accordion, sinfully fast cellos (yes, two cellos!), jazzy drums beats, relentless upright bass and salacious saxophone.

Tickets are avaliable here and they seem to be going fast. You can also view a flyer here!

We'd love to see you there and the Edwardian Ball is a blast! Let us know if you have any questions we can answer.

Caio, darlings!

**FINAL EDIT Thu Dec 10 02:15:47 UTC 2009**

So there is the final update... Over the past day we have processed around 11 million jobs out of the 12 million that were in queue at that time. Please bear in mind that over this past day, more jobs for notifications are also created. So while the queue has been dropping, we are still not fully caught up at this point, due to backlog and new jobs. We have roughly 3 million jobs still pending that involve the notification system in some manner. We had hoped we could have fully cleared the queue in a day, but unfortunately we can't clear it too quickly, since we need the rest of the site to operate normally. From our current perspective on the amount of jobs that are left in queue, and how many it has processed thus far, we believe it will take around another 8 - 12 hours to process everything.

And finally some answers to some questions:

Hey Everyone, we are about to run the last alter job that we need to on our database servers. This will effect userpics / scrapbook / vgift images for the next few hours. Have no fear, your images aren't lost, there is just a really intensive process running on the servers which store the information for mogilefs. Thank you for your understanding and all the LJ love...

Hey LJers,

I just wanted to let you all know that we are going to be performing some mogilefs maintenance over the next few days. We will be upgrading our current version to latest stable as well as changing some db config information to better handle the amount of files we are currently hosting. This shouldn't cause a big impact on site stability, but you may see some minor delays with userpic / scrapbook images appearing or other requests associated with our mogilefs. We would love to not have that happen, but unfortunately with some of the steps we need to take we have to cause a delay with images. I figured this was a better solution than taking down all of LiveJournal because well lets face it, we all need our daily LJ fix ;)

Thanks,
