When It Rains, It Pours: Super Happy Fun Land Faces Demolition/Relocation [11/08/2007 11:25:00 AM]:
What the hell is going on, people? I mean, I've known Houston's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it city since I first moved here, but lately it's been a little ridiculous. On top of the news that The Proletariat is likely going to be knocked down to make way for the Richmond light rail, now the folks up at Super Happy Fun Land in the Heights are facing the wrecking ball, too. 'Cause y'know, there aren't enough condos in the freakin' Heights as it is, right? Dammit!

On the positive side, the SHFL folks had apparently been planning a move of their own anyway, so the landlord's deadline (end of January, apparently) isn't the crushing blow it could've been. The SHFLers are now in the process of looking for a new, bigger, better, sparklier place to live/host shows, and naturally, they're not letting the looming shadow of bulldozers & cranes get 'em down -- they've even dubbed this the "Super Happy Relocation Experience"; ah, gotta love those cheery SHFL folks...

At any rate, if you can help them in any way, whether it's with the moving itself or with the large piles of $$$ they'll likely need to get a new place, please contact 'em at "info" at "superhappyfunland dot com". Say what you will about the place, the Land of the Super Happy is definitely a unique little venue, and despite what the developers seem to think, H-town desperately needs places like that. Otherwise, we'd be Dallas, and nobody wants that.
