Ska-punk, a vampire with a trombone, and a MagicQ console. Just another night in Lawrence. 🧛‍♂️🎺

The Dead Bettys brought their quarterly fundraiser to Liberty Hall, raising support for the Lawrence Humane Society with a little help from some very unexpected guests.

Behind the chaos, LD Megan Olafson powered the show with a ChamSys MagicQ MQ100. The result? Bold looks, plenty of movement, and lighting worthy of a vampire’s birthday celebration.
