I hope you all can understand what kind of event this will be.
There is more to it than a barrage of different music styles and people
dancing. There is performance art, musical art, drama, visual art. There
will be three different music rooms to choose from. Display tables and
merchandise tables including:
- VRFX - virtual reality
- Evening Star - metaphysical supplies and, yes, services
- Arcane Art - tatoo display
- Cinnamon Spider - body painting
And can anyone prepare themselves for a complimentary pancake
breakfast after going hard for twelve hours of non-stop fun!? And then to
turn around and party at the fully-licensed Post Party Sunday? People are
saying they are travelling hundreds of miles to partake in the Warm-Up
Party friday night.
The 90's will definetely be defined as a period of raving, so
would you want your children (or grandchildren for you busy people out
there) in the future to not hear what you had to do with the current
scene? Be a part of the history being made. Support the scene here in
North America!
Please feel free to email me on any queries!!
