Can I interest you in some live music? How about some tasty vittles? No? Your interests do not include tapping your foot nor tickling your palate? Then what do you say to some free vodka? Now I gotcha.

On January 27, we’re throwing a party at the Granada to thank you, our dear FrontBurnervians, for your thoughtful contributions and unwavering support of our online efforts. Or, you know, for your expletive-laden, hateful comments that we are forced to moderate. Whichever. In any case, FrontBurner Live will feature performances by Seryn and Telegraph Canyon. Because your ears can’t listen on an empty stomach, we’ll have food for you from several of the restaurants we named the best of 2010. Confirmed so far are: Nova, Brownstone, Urban Taco, and Meddlesome Moth. Because you’ll need something to wash it all down, Kru 82 vodka will be flowing like water — if you’re accustomed to water being about 80 proof and flowing down a chute made of ice.

Let’s see. What else do have planned to delight you? Oh, yes! A big projection screen on which you will be able to comment on a live blog of the evening and have those comments seen by all. And maybe something involving paint ball guns. Not sure about that last part. Working on it.

So how can you attend? We’re inviting a select number of commenters that we’ve come to know and love (or hate) over the years. A certain number of — ahem — prominent Dallasites will receive special invitations. (Big Bob Wilonsky, yours is in the mail!) But we’ve reserved space for others, too. So if you’re not a regular commenter or an enormous bald Jew who favors vests and motorcycle boots, just register after the jump. We’ll do a random(ish) drawing for 100 or so free tickets to the gig. Hope to see you there.
