icy winds cut through the streets of downtown kansas city, blowing through the door of jilly's each time it opened to admit yet another alacartoona devotee. each of these wonderful souls traded the warmth of their homes for the heat of her love. actually, it was an easy choice for most to make.

the exquisite photographer (and taker of exquisite photos) chris dahlquist and her horn blowing husband kyle--of the legendary mr. marco's v7--dropped in for drinks and a dash of ecstatic revelry. federation of horsepower guitarist gregg todt forced the room's beauty quotient up three full notches, a feat he acomplishes merely by being, while the audacious matt mayfield, alacartoona's favorite flyboy, spread his own unique brand of joy throughout the room. make sure you check out his visions below.
