Spring break just is around the corner, and we're looking to jam! 

THEME

What's breakin'? Is it a horde of zombies? monsters? Hopefully it's not the ape in that cage over there. We need to talk about the theme for this jam after all. It's going to be a SMASH! Oh, the ape got out. It's a bit loud, so let's move to the next paragraph.

Much better. So, the THEME: It's breaking, it's escaping, it's BREAK OUT BREAK DOWN! Smash pots, dance your heart out, make breakin' chaos. Are you breaking out, or are you breaking down break-outs? Either way, start breaking ground and get going!
