  1. I am always in. NYE sounds good.
  2. I'll admit I haven't been excited to see a DJ in a long time. I am now officialy excited. He rocked the mayan not to long back and he is now playing at spundae SPUNDAE IS GETTING NOT ONLY A DECENT DJ BUT A GREAT DJ! GO! HAVE FUN! I know I will
  3. Cause I can't really think of any. Seems to me that compaired to last year the music scene is a little dead this year. Wondering if things are passing underneath my radar....
  4. highlights: Doing arial yoga during the white out with the structure around us falling appart at the seems. My GF getting hit in the leg with one of the fire works shot off from the man Being a part of fire conclave and standing that close to the man when he went off. and the mornings. Every morning on the playa was the most amazing thing in the world to witness. Being sorrounded with surreal, unrestricted creativity. This is why pictures will never do BM justice. You see the photo and everything is taken in one at a time. In reality you are surrounded by the bizzar. You are looking at a pyramid in the desert as the chesire cat and white rabbit are having a drag race and a guy goes by wind sailing on roller blades with a giant wood scuture on the horizon. and since it is so constant your view on reality changes and I have yet to adjust back to this default reality.
  5. Probably monday morning/afternoon.
  6. TWO MAN ENTER, ONE MAN LEAVE!!!! These are the rules of thunder dome that we abide by! In serious I will watch myself, Thanks for the heads up. I will be camping at camp Unofficial at the 3 o'clock and Chance. Stop by and say hi!
  7. probably LAX, don't really follow him but I know that friday's at LAX is usualy his weekly shindig.
  8. Go to burningman . com and go through the first timer's guide. Basically we are going to be camping out in the desert for a week, so we gotta get tents, sleeping bags, clothes for the hot days and the cold nights, food, water, and all of requirements that don't require much thought when you are not in the desert. Also, because the dust out there is so fine you have to dust proof everything and also have goggles and maskes for when dust storms kick in. On top of that it is a giant music/art festivle so your outfits should be these crazy costumes, home made or modified. Also these outfits should probably light you up like an xmas tree cause it is flipping dark out there and people might not see you and run you over with a bike. And that is just covering the basics. If you are part of a camp or making an art installation, You've got to build it all, then take it down and some how ship it out to the desert and set it all back up again, then take it down and get it out of the desert. Burningman takes a ton of preperation and I know people who have been going for 8 years and they still are in panic mode the week before they go, but everyone says it is worth all the effort. I'll give you my two cents on that when I get back. As for what I want to do: I wanna take the tia chi and yoga workshops, take full advantage of the free cookies and milk at midnight, Take advantage of the message camps, I wanna fight in the tunderdome, I wanna play on the life size rock 'em sock 'em robots, I wanna see all of the art installations, I wanna see the giant pants catapult, I wanna dance until I drop and I want to be suprised. What type of music is at burningman? It is a 50K+ person event that goes on for a week, I am pretty sure you can find ALL kinds of music there.
  9. I have a guest in town and I was looking for the spundae guest list that is usualy up that has free entry befor 11pm. Normaly it is up on traffic events or I get an email, but so far nothing. Anyone able to help?
  10. On that same night I will be performing a fire dance in front of 50K odd people at burningman's 20yr aniversay. It was any easy choice for me to make.
  11. First time is always the worst and this is my first time. There person I am camping with and I are going insane trying to get ready for this thing.
  12. Wal mart employee's motto: "I am not paid enough to care."
  13. Oaky so my performance group Pois in the hood are locked down and we will be performing in the conclave on the night of the burn! If you are going be sure to track us down and say high afterwards.
  14. I am not, but be sure to NOT MISS rabbit in the moon or infected mushroom. Two of my all time favorite live acts. I expect a full report on the show when you get back
  15. I would totaly be down for that If I wasn't going to be at burningman
  16. Welcome to giant Look towards the bottom to see who is playing NYE in LA. I know it is a long way off but I have never seen the two of them perform together. How long has it been since S&D played together in LA?
  17. I heard a rumor awhile back that some club from new york was expanding to LA and I haven't heard a damn thing about it in a long time. Anyone got the skinny? Was it just a rumor or did the NY people actauly get to LA and decide that we weren't worth putting up with?
  18. I agree that spundae has a great crowd and I want them to make a come back too. AND I LIKE THE RENOVATIONS! THbbbbt to all that don't. The main dance floor is a little bigger, but that just leaves room for people in the back by the bar so they don't interfere with the people dancing. The side room is great to chill out and still be able to be a part of the action and it gives people a lot of room to spin poi. I wish they would kiss and make up with god's kitchen The thing that bugged me about all the great DJs playing at Avalon and no one knowing who they are or caring is that it is like going to a concert and not knowing the band or caring. Do you see people randomly buying tickets to the hollywood bowl, house of blues or the greek theater without knowing the band playing that night and not giving a flip about the band playing when they get there? I'd venture to say that it is unheard of. BTW, there is a difference between going out to hear someone new and what I am talking about. Cause if you are trying someone/something new you actualy care about the music act that is currently playing.
  19. I was a cashier. You would not believe the idiots I had to put up with on a day to day basis. Not to mention how little my bosses cared about my well-being. My mom commented on how I was much nicer to be around after quiting that job. Also, before I quit, she hung out by my register, just to see if my job was as bad as I said it was, and she could only put up with WATCHING for 2 minutes before she got so frustrated she had to leave. The store is a magnet for america's scums, morons, and failures.
  20. BTW, I'd like to weigh in on things. I don't judge a club night on dress, girl-guy ratio or any of the other things mentioned. I look at the ratio of people dancing vs. people not dancing. Then I look at how friendly the crowd is. Can I just join in on a random dance circle without getting any "who the hell is this guy?" feedback. Do I get a lot of "ugh, how this guy is dressed" feedback? The great thing about dancing at a club is that people that are drunk, or rolling or sober that are dressed cool, raver, or t shirt and jeans from all differnet backgrounds look at each other and think the same thing, "damn this song kicks ass, let's dance". For atleast one night all these differnet people are marching (dancing) to the beat of the same drum (song). I hate the raver kids sitting on the floor getting drugged out light shows as much as I hate the gucci'd out elite and I hate them for the same reason. They don't join in on the fun. A good night of electronica is like an organized riot. It is the only place in LA when you step on someone's foot that THEY will apologize to YOU, and they just got their foot crushed. I won't tell the raver kids to stop with the drugs and the light shows, just do it at home. There is no need to do that in public. I won't tell the social elite to stop trying to see and be seen, just do that in clubs ment for it like the standard. So by judging a dance club on wether or not people are actualy there to dance, I would have to say that the Avalon is a pretty lame dance club. There are a million reasons to go out. Just make sure that your reasons match up with the type of club your are going to.
