Captured! By Robots is a band of evil robots from space. They captured and experimented on the unfortunate human now known as J-Bot, and he is now forced to take the robots on tour to deliver the message of their hatred for all humanity through the medium of music. The tours are themed, and past tours have included a funk show, a reenactment of The Ten Commandments (the movie), a Death Metal Star Trek tour, and even a Richard Simmons-esque workout theme.
This year, the theme was “I got married by Captured! By Robots;” J-Bot is ordained by the Universal Life Church and is performing marriages at the concert. Bridget spotted the tour announcement email and suggested we get married by robots, and I enthusiastically agreed.
On May 21st, 2006 at the Cactus Club in Milwaukee, Bridget and I were married by Captured! By Robots… and oh, what a wedding it was.
The place was packed, and a surprising number of our friends showed up to see us get hitched. The show was definitely one of the better C!BR experiences I’ve had — the music was awesome, and the banter between J-Bot and his verbally abusive mechanical captors (and occasionally the audience) was entertaining as ever. J-Bot even brought a wedding cake! What a guy.

If you see C!BR coming through your town, I recommend you check it out. Tell J-Bot that Toby from Milwaukee sent you.

It really was awesome. Thank you everyone who came and celebrated our very solemn nuptials.
Very good reading. Peace until next time.
