For the debut of Gayngs on Friday, May 14, 2010 your dear old Mainroom will be transformed into the Last Prom on Earth. 

Now, I'm sure you find yourself wondering, "Hmm I wonder what the last prom on earth really would be like?". Well let me tell you, it involves over 25 of the most talented performers in the Midwest (including members from Bon Iver, Solid Gold, Megafaun, Lookbook and more) debuting some of the smoothest, adult-contempo-ish, love-making jams you'll ever hear.

Actually let's have Nate Vernon describe the night for you.

"We want to decorate First Ave with street lamps, whatever the normal prom decorations are, and white drapes on the stage," Vernon says. "We want to encourage people to wear prom-type formalwear, and I think the opening act would be something [Gayngs producer Ryan] Olson's going to be doing, either a side project or DJing to set the mood in a prom sort of way. The last song on the CD is 'The Last Prom on Earth,' and it's one of the big jams, so that's where the idea came from of doing the release show as a prom." Read the rest of the City Pages article here.

As you can tell this is going to be one special night. So raid your closet and dig out those old prom duds, buy some corsages and get ready for Gayngs: The Last Prom on Earth.

Tickets go on sale Friday, February 26th.
