Thursday, July 21st, 2005

Hey y’all,

Tonight will see me and Jai Young down at Sublounge for Third Orbit Thursday, watching movies and playing records!! Oh yeah, and playing games on the two playstations.

Sublounge is at 3rd & 20th St (628 20th st)

We’ll be there from 9:30pm until close — probably a bit after midnight.

Oh yeah, and it’s a FREE NIGHT FOR A FREE COUNTRY, baby. :-D

Party is ON!! Last Saturday of July, 2005…

Friday, July 15th, 2005

So, our party is on.  It will be the last Saturday of July, at an underground location from 10pm ’till 6am.   2 floors, 2 bars, 16 DJs, including:

M3
Dee
Laird
Galen
Bones
Alvaro
Nathan
Melyss
Antonio
Mancob
Garlynn
Jai Young
Fred Funk
Sol & Seven
Bran Robinson
Tal & Chardmo

…and the theme, you ask?  The Playa.  Playa wear encouraged.  The mad science disco will perhaps be apparent once you’re inside, but in terms of selecting costumes, anything playa-rriffic will be fine. :-)

And, hotties in white coats roaming the floor with test tube shots of a special concoction?  Those rumors may still be true. ;-)

Are you excited?  Pumped?  Can’t wait to get your playa on and funk it out all night long?  Come on by.  Go to another show, shut down their bar, then bring everybody over to the party afterwards.  Mutaytor is rockin’ the Fillmore earlier in the evening, Jai Young is doin’ his thang at some other underground spot, also earlier in the evening, and then we will be the after-party.  And what an after-party!!

Or, if nothing else sounds great that night, come early and show some love for the DJs playing the sets from 10pm ’till 2am (that is, before the bars close).

You get the picture.

Psst — pass it on!

love,
~Garlynn

an event July 23rd weekend from a fellow burner

Friday, July 8th, 2005

Hey friends,
I got this post on Myspace from a fellow burner.  I’ll be out of town that weekend, but it sounds *reallY* cool so I wanted to pass it on to y’all.

Hi!

 
I saw your profile and saw that Burning Man is one of your interests
and that you live in the Bay Area. We are having a Fundriaser
party/concert for our theme camp, The Wet Spot on July 23 and we would
love it if you considered coming out and supporting us. Please read all
of the info below and you will have a better idea of what the party
will be like.
 
Thannks!

Robin

 
The Cold Wet Spot invites you to…

 
Come up to the Santa Cruz Mountains and enjoy a 2 day Burner

retreat/FUNdraiser, a fabulous Reggae concert with 2+ Bands and a Live DJ

including Santa Cruz’ own DUB CONGRESS , and a scrumptious "Wake-N-Bacon"

Breakfast the next day.

 
We are raising money for our 2005 Burning Man project, a 48′ refrigerated

semi trailer housing the coolest party on the playa!

 
If you made it to our last fundraiser party, this one will be BIGGER,

BETTER, LONGER and UNCUT! If you missed the last one, here’s your chance to

come out and see what all the rave was about!

 
Bands include the Reggae Superstars, Dub Congress (www.dubcongress.com) and

the San Jose favorite, The Starving Millionaires. Alongside them will be

The Powerhouse Crew, throwin’ down Hip Hop & reggae.

 
Bring your tent, pitch it in the beautiful Redwood forest, dance and drink

’til you drop! If you are not a camper or prefer to not stay for the night,

evening party-goers are completely welcome! 18 and over, please.

 
Entertainment and events include:

Outdoor concert

Tickets are $20 in advance (prior to July 19) and $25 at the gate. We’d

love to have you all come out for free, but this is a fundraiser. This

party can only get so huge, so there will be a limited number of tickets.

we will send you a unique ticket that will get you into the

party/concert/retreat.

My first Friendster blog post ever!!

Hi!

I’ve been invited to serve drinks at the Critical Tits afterparty at Burning Man (on Friday) this year.  That’s right, bartend to 3,000 topless women.  Some of them bottom-less, too, I’m sure.  Why?  ‘Cuz I’m such a special guy, and generally considered to be mostly harmless, I suppose.

What do I think about this?  I’m elated.  Aside from DJ’ing, bartending is one of my favorite things to do on the playa.  This is an opportunity to bartend at somebody else’s camp, too, which ought to be a lot of fun.

Speaking of other people’s camps, though, I think I’d also like to spin records at other people’s camps at this year’s burn, as well.  Have a camp?  Want me to come play records there?  I’ll even accept requests for genre, though I reserve the right to switch genres mid-flow to respond to the crowd, such as it may be.  Old soul, funk, reggae, dub, trip-hop, downtempo, acid/funky/spacey/deep house… that’s pretty much what I’m focusing on right now.

OK, so can you respond to my blog post?  If so, do!!

Thanks!

love,
~Garlynn~
