Due to a number of setbacks in planning and personal stuff within the committee, we have decided to postpone the Circus until the summer of 2016. We want this event to be as awesome as we can possibly make it; and we knew we couldn’t do it 100% with the time and circumstances this fall and winter. Stay tuned for the most incredible Wrong Brain event yet ——
