This post starts with a BIG congratulations to Harmony and Matt. They did a bang-up job on this party and again raised the bar for promoters in Phoenix, Arizona. It was refreshing to be in a new venue for the first time in a while, and I’ve gotta say the only downside was the insect life. The warmth combined with all the water in the ponds etc made for an icky amount of them. The setup and theming were 100% on par and the tunes were bangin.
I was a little saddened to see the stage that I was setup near shut down a little early for noise, but it was amusing when they played hulaish island music at a lower level until they let a few of the djs go on with reduced volume.
It was a good night of hangin out, jammin a lil bit, but mostly just hanging out. My helpers for the night spent most of the night disappeared or wandering around so I didnt really get to check out the other stages, but I still managed to have a bit of fun.
I know Harmony was freakin out at the beginning because of the size and implications this party carried, but it turned out great! If you got yelled at like a few people including myself did, I’m sure it was no big deal, just a case of nerves. Thanks to Patch, Metro, and Bones for stoppin by and keeping me company from time to time!
I brought out a couple of new toys this weekend, and a couple of old ones. The new ones were the cool foam led bonker toys, and the old ones included the ghengis khan wands which play music and sing “I’m with ghengis khan, we’ve been workin on his car” or something along those lines.
