Global elite, beware: David Icke is coming to town.

The British author, public speaker, and conspiracy theorist has spent the past two decades profiling, for our benefit, the organizations that are controlling the world. The former soccer player and sports announcer has uncovered, in 20 different books, ways in which our universe has fallen prey to what Icke calls “New Age conspiracism,” and how the Earth is being secretly run by a group called The Illuminati.

Wait. It gets better. The Illuminati are apparently a race of reptilian humanoids known to one another as the Babylonian Brotherhood, and include among their number Queen Elizabeth II and Kris Kristofferson (also George W. Bush, a theory that makes Icke’s theories more plausible, somehow).

Icke discusses his moral and political worldview (for seven hours!) during a lecture titled “Human Race, Get Off Your Knees.” Tickets are $50, a small price to pay to listen to a who’s who of the lizard world.
