In these times of stress and strain, where change is the only constant, and the very idea of "tomorrow" seems like a Hail Mary, we do have some stalwart companions. Mostly, I'm talking about chocolate, but music is good too. And of all of the musics, the musics made by the cello have long been amongst society's most beloved.

So it seems only natural, only fitting that we put on a Massivemuse in a chocolate factory. With 8 Cellos. Because if there's one thing better than 7 cellos, it's 8 cellos, and if there's one thing better than 8 cellos, it's 8 cellos in a chocolate factory.

Thank you so much to our friends at Raaka Chocolate in Red Hook for making their space and free samples of their chocolate available and thanks so much to our friends at Six Point for giving us free beer for the night!

8 cellos. Chocolate. Amazing beer. It's like we've died and gone to heaven and gotten released after 5 years on good behavior and then go to double heaven, and that's where all of the cellos and the chocolate and good free beer are.
