Fez-o-rama's 2021 Show Schedule

Due to serious medical issues we have to cancel our upcoming shows. Update:We unfortunately need to change our plans for the upcoming months. Due to serious medical issues we will not be able to attend Emerald City Comic Con this year as we had planned in December. We also had to skip Tiki Caliente this month.
