Fresh off a return appearance on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon , the World Record Appreciation Society is gearing up for a massively outrageous July blowout. We'll be documenting over 10 new world records, there's a massive surprise lined up, and we've got the sweet beats of Blast Off! to rock us all night. Fresh!

The night will start with the World Premiere screening of Loud People, a hilarious new short from Todd Lamb. We'll then bring out songstress/comedienne Erin and Her Cello as our opening act, fresh off a headling gig at Joe's Pub.

The lineup of world records is shaping up to be our best ever, and we're thrilled that Blast Off!!! will once again represent as our URDB house band for the evening. Oh yeah, and free Pyrat Rum from 8 - 9!

CONFIRMED WORLD RECORDS SO FAR:

* Giorgio the Human Carpet - Most Women To Stand On A Man Rolled Up In A Carpet (read about him in the NYT http://bit.ly/RIkEb)

* Betsy Davis - Longest Balloon Squeak

* Alexandra Young - Most Autographs Signed On A Person's Stomach In One Minute

* Evan Berger - Fastest Time To Drink A Beer Through A Cocktail Straw

* Cody Ryder - Most Fortune Cookies Eaten and Read In One Minute

* Marcus Livesay - Most Names Written On An Uncooked Piece Of Spaghetti

* Jake Bronstein - Longest Whisper Chain (Attempt #2)

* Jon Chonko - Most Toppings On A Scanned Sandwich

* Chris Beresford-Hill - Mystery Record

Cost of admission remains at $5, free if you're unemployed. Advance tickets highly recommended. Hope you'll join us for what looks to be a night of serious, serious mayhem. If you come and it sucks, we'll give you your money back.
