This yard sale is a couple of things. First it's an opportunity for you, yes you, to bring records, CDs, gear, movies, whatever to sell. Get rid of what you no longer want or need. You know, one's man's garbage is another mans, blah blah blah . . .<br /><br />We will advertise, get the traffic and provide you with a place to sell your stuff. You just keep your end of the bargain, bring stuff to sell. Hang out, make some money, chill with like minded individuals and travel down nostalgia lane, while chatting about your random collectibles.<br /><br />People who bring records and are planning on playing later for the fundraiser will have a secure place to keep their stuff for the party. No need to cart everything home right away.<br /><br />Two, it's a part of the Fundraiser for the L.E.A.F. camp at <a href="http://fireflyartscollective.org/" target="_blank" title="Firefly">Firefly</a>. We as a collective have a lot of expenses, but not necessarily the monetary means to support it all. We have some dope ideas and want to see all of them come to life, ask us about them, you'll want to help out and see them into fruition. Trust!<br /><br />The yard sale starts at noon, Saturday, June 16th. Feel free to come early to set up. Those of you coming to shop, swing by after noon.<br /></div> <div style="text-align: left; color: rgb(85, 85, 85); font-size: 13px;">Posted by Blamo!: Monday, 04 Jun 2007 11:00 PM » <a href="http://www.zookoda.com/zoo/index.cfm?apg=emailpreview&aid=12481" style="font-size: 12px;">View Comments</a></div> </div> <div style="clear: both;"> <div style="text-align: left; color: rgb(27, 4, 49); font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica Neue Black Condensed,Arial Black,Arial,Sans-Serif;"><a href="http://www.zookoda.com/zoo/index.cfm?apg=emailpreview&aid=12481" class="aa">Skill Share | 5:00PM | June 16th</a></div> <div style="text-align: left;">The Skillshare was a last minute decision but looks like it will come together nicely.

Celebration of the Mexican army being victorious over the invading French. Celebration of a new member of the household. Celebration of the beautiful fucking weather we've been having. <br><br>After a day of rushing around for last minute preparation, dinner was served at eight-thirty. Jes made burritos from scratch; pulled chicken, fresh vegetables, herbs and spices, spanish rice and black beans were topped with guacamole and starr's homemade salsa. Delicious!!!! <br><br>Guests began arriving around nine-thiry as Starr, Randy, JD Disclexic and I were tossing around plates to warm up the upstairs decks for our openers, Tad and Nile. As an added surprise Paul came along as well and the three of them tagged a bouncy blend of sounds from lounge to dnb. Tad stayed along to play with JD at twelve-thirty, as they dropped from dnb down to breaks. <br><br>Simultaneously, in the basement Zyler had just finished setting up the visual gear and Skunk began dropping dubstep on the chillers down below ground. Phil's decorations, along with a wall for a projection screen, kept a mellow vibe for those who wanted to relax or lay out on the shag. However, up two floors was far from relaxation.<br><br>Cosmos had fists pumping and people dancing to some old hard house. The vibe was great and the last trickle of new guests came in the door. After some quick and easy sound dampening adjustments (windows shut, fans on), the remaining guests began the subconscious game of who can last the longest.<br><br>I took over upstairs while Sir Kibbles hooked up his computer to the setup. I kept in the vein of Cosmos and brought it harder and harder. <br><br><a name="trackscinco">Here are the tracks I played between three and three-thirty.</a><br><br>Hughes & Gamble - Twisted Synth Hard Mix<br>Yves de Ruyter - Psycho String<br>The Alien Thing feat Mark Bongwah - Ride the Pony<br>Yoji Biomehanika - Peace Out - Yoji's 21st Century remix<br>Vicious - Turkish Bazaar<br>CM - Psychopath<br>Mo-dem - Bits and Bytes (The Final Mission Mix) *see note<br>Span Thang EP - Span Trak<br>Digital Science - Digital Edge<br>A9<br><br>*after I mixed out of Bits and Bytes, which I had to turn the bass down a bit on while playing it, I noticed that the bass kill switch for that channel had been on for some unknown amount of time! The actual bass in that track was ridiculous.<br><br>Sir Kibbles finally found a workaround for his computer, and so tagged with JD on trance, hard dance, breaks and whatever else to close out the night til five am. While Nora chilled the basement crowd down til five-thirty. And with sunlight breaching the cloth-covered windows, the sleeping arise and say goodbyes. Gear is packed up, and finally to bed....room...to edit pictures from the night. <br><br><center><a name="picscinco">And here you are.</a><br><br><br><b>The DJs</b><br><br>Upstairs<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-starrc.jpg"><br><br><a href="myspace.com/sylverlace">Starr C.</a><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-nile.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.myspace.com/djnile">Nile</a><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-tad.jpg"><br><br>Tad<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-paul.jpg"><br><br>Paul<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-jdgroans.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.myspace.com/jd_disclexic">JD Disclexic</a><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-tadandjd.jpg"><br><br> JD and Tad working it together<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-cosmos.jpg"><br><br>Cosmos<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-sirkibbles.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.myspace.com/sirkibbles">Sir Kibbles</a><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-jandkibbles.jpg"><br><br>JD and Sir Kibbles rockin out<br><br>Downstairs<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-skunkbasement.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.myspace.com/skunklike ">Skunk</a><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-alex.jpg"><br><br>Alex<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/djshots-nora.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.myspace.com/norajean_">Nora</a><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/vjshots-zyler.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://dadatech.com">Zyler </a>on visuals<br><br><b>The Crowd</b><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/crowdshots-keglobby.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/giocoatandtie.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/allisondorothybonk.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/crowdshots-hallway.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/yumikodoublepeace.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/shawncarriesabody.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/crowdshots-dancingtrio.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/whoputxonthefloor.jpg"><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/cinco%20de%20mayo/earlymorningresters.jpg"><br></center><br><br>Thanks to everyone who came out, I hope you all had a wonderful time and can't wait for the next one!<br><br>Special thanks to Mike for working the door, Peeps Jess for providing decorations, Stas and Skunk for providing sound, and Zyler and Phil for visuals and decorations.<br><br>And as always LOVE to my housemates, Jes, Shawn and Starr, you're unbelieveable!Mr. Eyes Leehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11344476375076962038noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4333129425607395803.post-56209487373257882732006-10-23T23:38:00.000-07:002007-05-24T00:02:48.432-07:00Auditory Influx:Here it is ten days, one new hard drive, and a few hours of culling through a gig of photo and video, and I've finally gotten pics and vids for all to see.

The party coincided with our newest roommate's birthday, as well as the beginning of fall, and we wanted to bring the crowd a little something special to make up for a less than spectacular event that preceded this one. Two days were spent prepping the house for the party, from top to bottom cleaning and rearranging to meticulously taping real leaves to the walls around our front door. <br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/jesposes.jpg"><br><br>The birthday girl in her birthday outfit<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/mikeleafpose.jpg"><br><br>Unpaid help from NYC<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/frontporchprep.jpg"><br><br>The workers contemplate a strike<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/akivalightsetup.jpg" ><br><br>Akiva helps Prism Lighting set up<br><br><br><b>The Music:</b><br><br>All the DJs rocked it, Akiva, Ekko, Jeremy, Dev/Null, TechnoBitch, and DJ C upstairs, as well as JD Disclexic, Dru Styles, Ikari, Skunk, and theSunsetsDown downstairs. <br><br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-akiva.jpg" ><br><br>Akiva<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-ekko.jpg" ><br><br>Ekko<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-jeremy.jpg" ><br><br>Jeremy<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-devnull.jpg" ><br><br>Dev/Null<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-technobitch.jpg" ><br><br>TechnoBitch<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-c.jpg" ><br><br>DJ C<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-jddisclexic.jpg" ><br><br>JD Disclexic<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-drustyles.jpg" ><br><br>Dru Styles<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-ikari.jpg" ><br><br>Ikari<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-skunk.jpg" ><br><br>Skunk<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/djshots-thesunsetsdown.jpg" ><br><br>theSunsetsDown<br><br><br><b>The Visuals:</b><br><br><br>Lighting on the second floor was provided by Prism Lighting, and Alison brought a projector for VJ Bonk to display visuals over the first floor walls.

Beirut was set up in the kitchen and the party started filling up. By midnight we had sixty to eighty people, a number which would remain constant for most of the night. It was just the right number of people to keep the dancefloors filled and various concentrations of group chatter in kitchens, bedrooms, the back stairs and of course, the roof. The roof also happened to be one of the better vantage points to view the fire poi in the backyard. <br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/caniseeyourid.jpg" ><br><br>No, I swear, I'm one of the djs<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/justinshawnkitchen.jpg" ><br><br>The kitchen is the home of quality discourse<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/rooftoplounge.jpg" ><br><br>Jes and Russ relax on the roof<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/norajeremyporch.jpg" border="0"><br><br>Nora and Jeremy conversate on the back porch<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/medfordkids.jpg" ><br><br>The Medford crew<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/throughthedoorway.jpg" ><br><br>A peek into the madness<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/welllitroom.jpg" ><br><br>Is this a nightclub?<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/crowdshots-rosey.jpg" ><br><br>The crowd enjoying the music<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/crowdshots-dancers.jpg" ><br><br>Dancers!<br><br><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g175/MrEyesLee/auditory%20influx%20pics/crowdshots-bonk.jpg" ><br><br>Bonk gets out on the dancefloor<br><br><br><b>The End:</b><br><br><br>The music upstairs wound down around 4:30 am, while downstairs the beats flowed til at least 6 am.
