My Schedule & Black Rock City: Green Gorilla Lounge Playa Project 2005

Monday, August 22nd, 2005

      

    Hey burners,

I’ll be with Green Gorilla Lounge again this year. We’ve been moved
across the city: we’ll be at 10:00 & Bipolar this year (the streets
go Esplanade, A, B, C, D, etc… we’ll be at "B").

We’re scheduled to arrive on Saturday, August 27th at some point in
time. We plan on having the bar/nightclub open in time for Happy Hour
on Wednesday, August 31st, though you’re certainly welcome to drop by
earlier.

Also, if you’re looking for my personal DJ Schedule, here’s what I have so far:

GARLYNN @ BRC 2005

TUESDAY: 1am-4am @ StarLush Camp, in the 9:00 Plaza with the lit-up
dancefloor (they’re at 4:00 if you’re standing in the center of the
plaza and facing the Man).
WEDNESDAY: At Green Gorilla (10:00 & Bipolar), time still TBD

THURSDAY: At Green Gorilla (10:00 & Bipolar), time still TBD

FRIDAY: At Starlush (9:00 Plaza), 10pm to 1am

SATURDAY: On board the Nautilus blue ex-MUNI articulated mutant bus
vehicle thingy, starting after the burn and continuing until I get
off… then, potentially a followup set at Green Gorilla, time still
TBD.

We’re still firming up the Green Gorilla DJ schedule, so I’ll post
it if I see it before the playa. Otherwise, drop on by on Wednesday to
find out what it looks like for the rest of the week. Tentatively, the
theme nights are:

Green Gorilla Sound Camp at Burning Man!!

Nevada

Green Gorilla Lounge

Black Rock Sound Camp

10:00 @ Bipolar

Wed. Aug 31st to Sat. Sept. 3rd

Wed. "Hump the Funk"

Djs playing funk, disco & downtempo from happy

hour ’till you stop!

Thur. "Busy Beaver Happy Hour"

Lady djs happy hour! Followed by GGL djs bringin’

the funk!

Fri. "Green Flash sunset party followed by Gender

Bender crossdressing house mayhem!"

Sat. "Burn Baby Burn"

Come help us finish drinking the booze!

"free cold drinks, deep and funky music and

too many sick djs to name!!"

Let me know if you have any questions, comments, or other places on the playa where you would like me to drop some tunes. :-)

so I’m entering this photo contest thing…

Thursday, August 18th, 2005

Y’all should view my photos, and BOOKMARK any that you think are "hot."

My personal favorite is the sunrise after the burn, but I leave it up to your discretion which ones you like.

According to the contest organizer,

" You can ask your friends to bookmark you even
if they are not in the Photo Contest group. Use
the ‘Post a Bulletin’ link and/or BLOGS to spread
the word so that you could be BOOKMARKED.
They can just go on your profile to bookmark you.
But in order for you to be qualified, you have to be
in the Photo Contest group. That’s all!"

So yeah, have fun!! :-)

cheers,
~Garlynn

P.S. for those of you going to the burn, Green Gorilla Lounge will be at 10:00 & Bipolar, and open from Wednesday through whenever we all pass out on Sunday post-burn.

Yup, that party pretty much rocked.

We had about 700 people show up, we went until sunrise, the sound was awesome, the DJs all played extra-terriffic sets, I think everybody had a blast, people lost clothing, it was general mayhem…

Anybody have any specific memories to share?

love,
Garlynn
