Once Thanksgiving's out of the way, y'all are going to want to go out. Grab your out-of-town friends, don those totally killer retro fashions and come to this party.

Guess who's gonna be there. Thassrite. Industrial dance icon Nitzer Ebb. Live.

For those who lived (and partied) in Tulsa in the '80s and '90s, Club SRO (and RadioSRO) is/was a "lifestyle" founded, in large part, by local skate-shop owner, LA Gear co-founder, promoter and Tulsan Tim Barraza. Its fans were of all colors, stripes, sexes, orientations, high styles and preferences. "As we'd always say, 'Do whatever makes you happy, just don't hurt anybody.'"

Nov. 26 and Nov. 27, that culture will see a revival with the SRO reunion and 2-day music festival, featuring a icebreaker, original club and radio station DJs Michael Sanchez, Chris Martin, Corbin AND a meet-and-greet on Friday, plus a live performance from Nitzer Ebb on Saturday.

It also will debut a new public awareness and safety campaign, Missy's Keys4Cabs. Learn more about Missy's legacy on Facebook, here.

1. LOCAL BUSINESSES: Learn more and JOIN the Missy's Keys4Cabs program. (Contact the Facebook site admins to learn more!)

The "keys for cabs" program will give revelers a safe, reliable way home, provided by local cab companies in conjunction with local bars and restaurants. Look for the "Keys4Cabs" logo, tell your barkeep and present the cabbie with a voucher. It's that simple. Really. Venues and entities already behind the program include The Marquee, Crystal Pistol, the Wolfgang Punk restaurant, Full Moon, Blue Dome Diner, the president of the Oklahoma Restaurant Association, Budweiser and the Tulsa Community Foundation.

2. REVELERS: LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SRO REUNION AND GET YOUR TICKETS HERE.

NOTE: ALL profit will benefit the nonprofit Missy's Keys4Cabs program to save lives, reduce drunk driving and help preserve Melissa Eubanks' memory. She was a victim of a drunk driver earlier this year.
