Warm
happy holiday wishes to you all! Trusting everyone has had a fabulous
season and that the hustle and bustle has slowed a little to gather
yourselves for the new year, the new moon, and one HELL of a fabulous
start to a joyous and prosperous 2014!
TICKETS are nearing two-thirds sold out and we've had over 10K hits to our blog... GRAB EM!
WE
ARE LOOKING FOR SET-UP & TEAR DOWN VOLUNTEERS! This entire event
is set-up and torn down without a trace within 48 hours. We need a
few more on the team to help with various small tasks. SO if you'd like
to trade a couple volunteer hours for entry, please email us here!
We're
making some improvements: faster bar service, a satellite bar, a
smoother entry process... and the space itself has grown and evolved
over the past year. As you may have noticed, we've also kept to our decision to keep this event word-of-mouth, meaning
that only those who have been privy to or given the link have access
to this information. Quality, community vibes is the goal! (Also fun people who will dress-up, although that's not mandatory, but it's way better obvs). In any case, we
are very excited to see you.
ABSOLUTELY NO OUTSIDE ALCOHOL.
DON'T
FORGET, there is a large fenced parking lot if you wish to drive to
the event and then pick up your car the next day, HOWEVER - DO
NOT DRINK AND DRIVE. Terminal Skytrain Station
is 2 1/2 half blocks away as well as transit. We will be going quite
a bit later than most events as well so hopefully cabs will be more
available then as well. There will be a full coat & bag check.
PLEASE
BRING CASH!! There is no ATM onsite.
Really looking forward and feeling grateful to have an opportunity to stir up some good ol' fashoined trouble. Very pleased that this is essentially a large-scale collaboration between people who have spent
years working at this in our community--- decor, performance, sound,
operations, woodworking... it's not JUST about the DJs, although of course, in our humble opinion, the fine men and women in
charge of selecting the music are second-to-none. But we try very hard as always to properly cover the old-school
reasons of why people love parties: unconventional space, fabulous
people, good music, safe, fun, playful, magic vibes and lots of room
for interaction as well as dancing!

On that note, let us leave you for now with this write-up from our sound team for the night, Application Audio, who will be providing us with an incredible 20 000 watts of crystal clear, firm, full sound:
"In
the last 5 years the name Application Audio has earned a reputation
for delivering incredible sound quality to dance floors and stages
across western Canada and into the States. Application Audio has
become integral to audio crews at world-class music festivals like
Shambhala, Burning Man, and Basscoast. Working with such brand names
as PK and Funktion-One, the owners Doug and Darby,
have given their hearts and souls to the Application Audio project,
and are successfully chasing their dream. To them this is more then a
production service, or a sound system. It is everything they love. It
is their life’s purpose. It is a gift. Their passion is the not so
secret ingredient to the sound quality they are known for. While the
gear is important it is not the reason you will fall in love with
their work. The years of gratitude they have been shown by their
community has fueled an unstoppable fire inside of them to grow and
better their abilities. Their life’s mission is to master the art
and science of creating the vibe that gives us all goose bumps. “
SOON!
