Burlesque legend Little Miss Risk will perform at Cthulhupalooza. Will she summon Cthulhu himself with her curvaceous and non-Euclidian moves? Be with us to find out on Feb 18th and be plunged into the horrible, lascivious depths. Little Miss Risk has performed at another 2nd Level Wizards event, namely Khan Con, where she performed the Orion Slave Dance in authentic costuming! http://www.littlemissrisk.net/

Get your tickets to Cthulhupalooza II and don’t forget to enter the Miskatonic Middle School PTA Bake Sale!

Joseph Wu Origami has graciously donated this amazing origami Cthulhu as one of our many great prizes for the Miskatonic Middle School PTA Bake Sale. Imagine baking a Lovecraftian cake or plate of cookies, selling them off to benefit BC Children’s Hospital, and winning not only this one-of-a-kind paper sculpture that will test your very sanity, but many other great prizes from our other sponsors like Fantasy Flight Games (makers of Arkham Horror) and Hothead Games (makers of On The Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness)

Did I mention? Contestants in the Miskatonic Middle School Bake Sale receive FREE ADMISSION to Cthulhupalooza!

The video release party for the Thickets newest video – “20 Minutes of Oxygen” is much more than just a live performance by the band and a screening of the video. There will be numerous Lovecraftian short films, a Miskatonic Middle School Bake Sale, a tentacular burlesque performance by Little Miss Risk, and it’s all part of Cthulhupalooza II: Son of Cthulhupalooza. It happens on Friday Feb 15 – don’t miss it! www.cthulhupalooza.com

As a tease, here are a couple screen shots from the new video (click to embiggen):

The video is written and directed by Mike Jackson of Steam-Powered Films. He also did all the visual effects. Doesn’t that BLOW YOUR MIND?

The folk metal artists Scythia, who are playing at Cthulhupalooza 2: Son of Cthulhupalooza, have graciously allowed us to include a song sample from their library right here on secondlevelwizards.com
Please enjoy “Fierce Riders of Scythia” and don’t miss their shenanigans on the stage of the Rickshaw Friday Feb 18!

Fierce Riders of Scythia

NOW WITH COFFEE!!

Second Level Wizards is proud to announce the EIGHTH Saturday Morning Cartoon Party, in which you can relive those memories. Starting at 11:10 on July 17 at VIVO Media Arts Centre on Main St (@ 4th Ave) we’ll be showing classic TV fare from the 70’s, 80’s and elsewhen along with bowls of Frankenberry, Cap’n Crunch, Trix and all your other cartoon-mascotted cereals.

Second Level Wizards is pleased to announce we’ll be giving away a full set of Rock Band 2 including game, drums, guitar, and microphone. The set was leftover from our Rock Band competition during Cthulhupalooza so it is slightly used but it is in working condition. The draw for Rock Band 2 will take place during intermission.

What cartoons will we be showing? You’ll have to show up to find out, but previous guests know that we’ve shown Scooby Doo, Popeye, Bugs Bunny, 1940’s Superman, NFB’s Log Driver’s Waltz and many many others. Plus we’ll have contemporary commercials and PSAs. Don’t drown your food!

Note there is no movie this time around – just lots of regular 22 minute (and shorter) cartoons. So drop in and drop out at your leisure and you won’t miss any important plot points!
