Listen up, mortals. The Manatee Meat Company Skeleton Crew is looking for musicians to join a jam session at our members-only hideaway. We’ve met the "general public," and frankly, we’d rather spend a Tuesday tuning a 12-string guitar in a hurricane than hang out with them. That’s why we’ve built a private, one-acre retreat where exclusivity is fashionable and your social anxiety is catered to with "casually elegant" vibes.
The Setup:
The Stage: We’re playing in a "beach in the woods" because Mother Nature’s original design choices were boring.
Visuals: We have three 10-foot movie screens. One for the band, one for the lyrics you’ll inevitably forget, and one just to be dramatic.
The EscoBar: That's were Sam and Norm will be hanging out to show you how drinking should be done. BYOB so you can numb the pain of the drummer’s inevitable 12-minute solo.
The Recovery Zone: If the music gets too "experimental" (read: bad), feel free to wander into the Fairytale Forrest or hide in a garden atrium nook until the feedback stops ringing.

The Rules:
It’s polished. It’s playful. It’s slightly unhinged. If you’re looking for a "judgment-free" zone, this is it—mostly because we’re too busy judging the general public to worry about your missed high notes.

The Cause:
We are stealth do-gooders. Donations to 7 Gifts of Kindness are welcome and appreciated. You can feel like a saint while acting like a sinner in a Tiki Hut.

Details for the Elite:
Where: The Antisocial Social Club (If you don’t know where it is, you probably aren't a member.)
Entry: Members only. If you aren't one, start practicing your "exclusive" face and get signed up.
"Wait, how do I get in?"
Listen, we’d love to tell you there’s a secret handshake involving a skeleton, or a manatee and a specific type of seaweed, but it’s simpler than that. Because we’ve met the general public and decided we need a filter, the Antisocial Social Club is strictly members-only.
If you want to join our "casually elegant" circle of mischief (and avoid being one of the people we're antisocial toward), here is the deal:

How to apply: Go to https://www.manateemeatcompany.org/assc-member-rules to see how we handle our "exclusivity."
Donations: Since we are "stealth do-gooders," your donations go directly to 7 Gifts of Kindness, helping cancer warriors, caregivers and children in need of advocacy.

No, you can't just 'swing by': Tucked away on a private acre on the north side of Crystal River, we value our privacy as much as we value a well-mixed drink at the EscoBar.
If you aren't a member yet: Stay tuned to our Events page for announcements on when we’re temporarily tolerating outsiders for our larger fundraisers.
