about me
I'm the fiery-dreadlocked androgynous rock star freak your mother warned you about. Well, actually, that's not true. Moms love me. With my partner, the Mysterious D, I throw parties and DJ at clubs such as our monthly mashup party, Bootie, the first all-bootleg club in the United States. I'm also the lead singer for Smash-Up Derby, the world's only mashup rock band. I also have a 'real job' -- or at least one that pays the rent -- namely that of being the art director for the Bay Area Reporter, a gay/lesbian newsweekly, which mostly involves sitting in front of a Macintosh computer making stuff look pretty. Last but not least, I'm an old-school Burning Man vet, the editor and publisher of Black Rock City's favorite alternative newspaper, Piss Clear. Oh yeah, and I like to take roadtrips into the desert.

Direct from Paris, it's the American debut of famed French DJ duo LOO & PLACIDO

Since 2001, this amazingly-talented duo have created over 200 mashup tracks and dropped some of the biggest dance floor bangers ever. In 2004, they were enlisted by MTV Europe to produce 18 exclusive mixes for their "MTV MASH" program, as well as creating a series of "mini-mashes" that blended MTV EUROPE MUSIC AWARDS nominees' tracks. 

The duo have also been hosting their very popular weekly radio mix-show on France's top-rated NRJ Mastermix program for the past two years, as well as their own "Mash Mix" online podcast.

Most recently, their worldwide smash, "Horny As A Dandy" – which seamlessly blends Mousse T's "Horny" with Dandy Warhols' "Bohemian Like You" – saw its official release in Europe by the Peppermint Jam/Postiva label, and also appeared on the first, legally-sanctioned mashup album, "Mashed" (EMI).  It was also nominated in the "Best Underground Dance Track" category at the 2007 Miami Winter Music Conference.

These self-described "bastards at work" are clearly working it! This Saturday is your opportunity to see them now before they blow up huge!

** LOO & PLACIDO will be featured on Paul V.'s Smash Mix this Friday at 5:35 pm on Indie 103.1
Tune in for a chance to win FREE passes to Bootie LA on Saturday night! **

----------------------------------------------------------------
11 pm: MC JELLY DONUT guest raps with house band SMASH-UP DERBY

He may be internationally-infamous for starting a very public feud with UK rap-midget Lady Sovereign ... but he's also our favorite giant rapping pastry snack! He's MC JELLY DONUT, and this month, he'll be joining Bootie house band SMASH-UP DERBY for a couple of songs. He'll be rapping freestyle with the band, as well as "busting a move" on a custom mashup number created just for tonight!

----------------------------------------------------------------
Upstairs: BOOTLEG REMIXES from ATOM and KID HACK

Bootleg culture goes beyond just "A vs. B" mashups, and this Saturday, we'll be showcasing two DJs known for their unofficial, unsanctioned custom remixes – Connecticutt's ATOM and San Francisco's very own KID HACK. They'll be taking over the upstairs room, and spinning a very thumpy set of bootleg remixes for your dancing pleasure!

----------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show: MONISTAT

Every since she came on the scene a short while ago, MONISTAT has been raising eyebrows with her edgy and borderline insane performances, such as when she hosted last month's "Youth In Asia" night at Trannyshack. This Saturday, she makes her Bootie midnight mashup show debut with a loungy number courtesy of DJ Earworm!

----------------------------------------------------------------
As always, your resident DJs ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D, PARTY BEN, and DADA will be holding it down in-between, spinning all your favorite mashups, as well as several fresh new creations hot off the laptop!

We've got free Bootie CDs to the first 75 people and its $8 before 10:30 pm, so get there early!

See you this Saturday!

Special guest DJ set from Oakland's very own DJ JAY-R

It's been while since we've had DJ JAY-R in the house, and we're happy to bring him back for another guest DJ set! You probably know his big mashup hit, "My Other Car Is A Beatle," where he mashes up "Cars That Go Boom" with Gary Numan's "Cars," and turns it into a dance floor banger. And trust us, he's got plenty more where that came from!

------------------------------------------------------------------
Wear a Santa hat and our DRUNK SANTA CLAUS will give you a free CD!

Our drunken Santa Claus has become a Bootie holiday tradition! This year, Santa will have the 2007 edition of A Very Bootie Christmas, our annual compilation CD of all our favorite holiday mashups! To get one, just wear a Santa hat, and he'll give you a free CD... but you also might have to sit on his lap and get your picture taken!

------------------------------------------------------------------
DJ ADRIAN spins a "very special" all-Christmas music mashup set at 10 PM

Adrian has a not-so-secret love of holiday music, and from 10-11 PM, he'll be spinning a set of mashed-up Christmas songs. We promise it will be unlike any holiday music you've heard before ... and you'll be able to dance to it!

------------------------------------------------------------------
SMASH-UP DERBY to mash up and rock out a few Christmas songs

Bootie house band SMASH-UP DERBY will hit the stage at 11 PM, and they'll have a few rocked-out Christmas songs to throw into their set, including a reprise of last year's "Christmas Bop," their Ramones holiday mashup, as well as a few other seasonal surprises!

------------------------------------------------------------------
Upstairs: FANDANGO XMAS LOUNGE with DJs MALDEROR, REDSTICKMAN, & STEVE-O

Last year, the kids from Fandango – our favorite camp and bar at Burning Man – turned the upstairs room into Christmas decoration overload! You may remember the giant over-sized ornaments hanging from the ceiling, or maybe the Tecate Tree ... So we're overjoyed to have them back, as they bring their decadent holiday party vibes back to the upstairs room, where they'll be hosting the Fandango Xmas Lounge, featuring DJs MALDEROR, REDSTICKMAN, and STEVE-O.
And trust us, NO ONE'S more fun to party with than the Fandango crew! The upstairs will GO OFF.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show starring TRAVIS D

One of our absolute favorite go-go dancers, TRAVIS D, The Indra's usual partner-in-crime, is moving away to Chicago this month. But we're not letting him go just yet – at least not without a midnight mashup show! So this Saturday, we are proud to present Travis D's swan-song performance – and it's a Dresden Dolls mashup! Don't miss it!

------------------------------------------------------------------
Your resident Bootie DJs: JET-LAGGED from Europe and Asia ... but ready to rock!

Bootie's resident DJs will be a bit jet-lagged this coming Saturday – PARTY BEN has just returned from his month-long European tour, and ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D will have just flown back from playing a DJ gig in Hong Kong. They may be a bit delirious, but they'll still be spinning all your favorite mashups throughout the night. Opening DJ DADA won't be jet-lagged, but he may be functioning on very little sleep, since him and his wife recently had their second baby! (Congrats, Dada!)

Jet-lag be damned! We still plan to throw down some post-travel inspired sets for your dancing pleasure!

As always, we've got free Bootie CDs to the first 75 people, and it's $8 before 10:30 pm, so get there early!

Live on stage: PARTY BEN ALIVE !

Bootie's resident DJ PARTY BEN has been hard at work this past month, retiring his "Party Ben Kenobi" persona and cooking up a brand new feature DJ set, "inspired" by – as you can probably tell by the above image – last year's Daft Punk tour!

While he won't have a $2 million light-up pyramid, he will be incorporating tons of massive video and projections into his set for the first time, featuring clips put together by VJ Brewski and VJ Jaren, as well as his own mashup video creations. Musically, it's going to be a "Party Ben Greatest Hits" set – so that means only one thing – be ready to dance your ass off!

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Upstairs Lounge: '90s MASHUP ROOM hosted by DJ JAY-R

It's 2008, and you know what that means ... we're right on schedule for the '90s retro revival! So this month, DJ JAY-R hosts the '90s MASHUP ROOM in the upstairs lounge. He'll be joined by resident DJ ADRIAN, as the two of them relive the "whatever decade," spinning only mashups that feature songs from the 1990s.

Expect to hear music by Nirvana, the Spice Girls, The Breeders, C&C Music Factory, Nine Inch Nails, L7, Ace of Base, Smashing Pumpkins, Technotronic, TLC, Garbage, Right Said Fred, and many many more!

--------------------------------------------------------------------
House band SMASH-UP DERBY welcomes new bassist Angela!

New Years Eve was the last show for SMASH-UP DERBY's bass player, Sam, as he leaves us to join the Blue Man Group in Vegas. Not missing a beat, however, the band is happy to welcome its new bassist, Angela! This Saturday will be her first show with the band at Bootie. Come on out and cheer her on!

Remember, Smash-Up Derby always hits the stage promptly at 11 PM!

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show: The Bohemian Brethen of SF BOYLESQUE

For the first time ever at Bootie, we've got a bona fide dance troupe performing the midnight mashup show! The Bohemian Brethren of SF BOYLESQUE will be gracing our stage, performing a dance piece choreographed by Alex Ledesma for the infamous Fondue Meltdown mashup, "Push It Satisfaction" (Salt n' Pepa vs. Benny Benassi). We can't wait to see what they do with it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Resident DJ MYSTERIOUS D on the decks with DADA and ADRIAN

Resident DJ MYSTERIOUS D will be serving up the dance floor bangers on the main floor, spinning all your mashed-up favorites, and some of the hot new mashups we've found in the past month! DADA will be starting off the night with a special extended set, and ADRIAN will be spinning the closing set.

Launched in San Francisco in 2003, Bootie was the first club night in the United States dedicated solely to the burgeoning artform of the bootleg mashup. Named "Best Mashup Party in the U.S." by Complex magazine, BOOTIE now hosts monthly parties in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Paris and Munich.

Mixing and matching every conceivable musical genre, era, and style into one big dance party where everyone feels welcome, Bootie provides the soundtrack for the A.D.D. generation - with free mashup CDs given away like candy!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
From San Francisco, Bootie creators & resident DJs: ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D

Resident Bootie DJs A+D have had a busy two months, with gigs in Hong Kong, Mexico City, SF and LA – but they're psyched to be back in New York City, the center of it all. They're armed with several CDs worth of hot new mashups from all over the world, some new A+D tracks, as well as all your old favorites.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Voted "Outstanding DJ" in the 2007 Boston Music Awards
Kick-ass mashup producer DJ BC

For our first Bootie NYC of 2008, we are proud to present Boston's very own DJ BC, who is also a co-creator of Boston's Mash Ave. club night. Recently voted "Outstanding DJ" in the 2007 Boston Music Awards, you might also know him from the annual Santastic holiday mashup compilations, as well as his two highly-acclaimed Beastie Boys vs. Beatles albums, The Beastles. These ingenious mashup albums were ultimately banned by the Beatles' record label – but not before getting a ton of press and making DJ BC a bootlegger household name!

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight (and 1 AM) mashup shows! Singer KATIE ENLOW and rapper BLACK EXACTLY

We are VERY proud to present, back again to rock the Bootie house with a voice that's bigger than she is – Boston mashup chanteuse KATIE ENLOW! Katie performed at our second-ever Bootie NYC party – and just killed it. We're thrilled to have her back. She'll be belting out two live mashups, including one with her brother, Mash Ave. co-creator, Lenlow. Also, DJ BC is bringing a new voice to Bootie, New York rapper BLACK EXACTLY, who will be live on the mic, rapping to a DJ BC mashup.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

New for 2008 ... it's the Pirate Lounge!

Since all we play at Bootie are pirated bootleg mashups, it only makes sense that we love pirates! So this month, we're doing the Pirate Lounge! We're taking over one of the VIP booth areas, and filling it with pirate goodies and our 6-foot blow-up pirate mascot! You may even find some pirate treasure.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

We're looking forward to Friday, we hope to see you there!

From 10-11 PM – special early guest DJ set from THE ILLUMINOIDS

This month, we are proud to feature two of our favorite mashup artists, the punk rock "Mashup Monsters" Howie Pyro and Jells Mayhem, a.k.a. THE ILLUMINOIDS. This LA-based duo have produced some of our favorite bootlegs from the past year – their calling card is their use of indie and alternative artists in their mashups – from the Germs to David Bowie, from Devo to The Trucks. They are also the co-creators of "Pretend We're Alala" (L7 vs. CSS), an officially-sanctioned mashup that was co-created by Donita Sparks of L7, and which has recieved almost 500,000 plays on CSS's official MySpace page. You can check out one of the Illuminoides newest tracks on our Bootie Top 10.

They will be doing a special guest DJ set from 10-11 PM, spinning a very eclectic set of tunes, so be sure to get there early!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW! Downstairs Echoplex Lounge will be open!
The Bootie LA Makeout Lounge

To help with some of the over-crowding we had last month, we're going to be opening up the downstairs Echoplex Lounge, for chilling out and listening to some cool mashups that we don't normally get to play for the dance floor. There will also be another bar downstairs, so if it's too crowded to get a drink at the main bar, just head on down!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From New York City, guest DJ LOBSTERDUST

Anyone who reads our Bootie Blog and downloads our monthly Top 10 already knows that New York City's LOBSTERDUST is one of our favorite mashup artists working today. Born and raised in Israel, his innovative mashups mix indie, pop, dance, and hip-hop into a unique sonic collage, and have received significant airplay on radio stations around the globe, including Sirius, France's Oui FM, and LA's Indie 103.1. He's also been a favorite mashup artist of indier-than-thou Pitchfork Media.

He's the rotating resident DJ at our Bootie party in New York – but we've been dying to bring him out here to San Francisco, just so he could rock the house of the DNA Lounge, and play at Bootie's original mashup party – with the most enthusiastic and fun crowd – you!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
At 11 PM: SMASH-UP DERBY presents "Request Night!"

The last time SMASH-UP DERBY did "Request Night," it was just kinda of a last-minute, "what the hell" idea. But to the band's surprise, you guys loved it, and got so into it, screaming out songs we forgot we had ever mashed up! So this month, we're bringing it back, and we're ready to play any Smash-Up Derby song you call out.

A complete list of mashups the band performs is posted on their web site at: www.SmashUpDerby.com.

See something you wanna hear? Yell it out ... it's "Request Night!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Brand-new Absinthe Bar!

Yes, the rumors are true! The DNA Lounge is now serving absinthe, in their new Absinthe Bar underneath the staircase! Try this infamously-banned, 19th century elixir! Mmmm ... absinthe!

And you thought the Bootie parties were wild before......

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Upstairs room: Seattle's original mashup party FRANKENBOOT

Launched by DJ FREDDY, KING OF PANTS over three years ago, FRANKENBOOT is Seattle's long-running mashup bootleg party – and is one of the only other all-mashup parties in the country besides Bootie! This Saturday, it becomes our "club-within-a-club", as Freddy brings his Seattle mashup party to the upstairs room. Resident DJ ADRIAN will be joining him on the decks throughout the night. Freddy is a Bootie favorite when it comes to guest DJs, so we know you guys will show him another damn good time upstairs!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show starring: ANNA CONDA

Returning to the Bootie stage this month will be ANNA CONDA, a former Miss Trannyshack, the fabulous host of Charlie Horse, which takes place at The Cinch every Friday night. Anna Conda has a taste for, and DJs, alternative styles of music, so she fell in love with this mashup..... she'll be performing The Illuminoids' "Pretend We're Alala," which mashes up L7 with CSS!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Resident DJs MYSTERIOUS D, PARTY BEN, and DADA on the decks

And as always, your trusty resident Bootie DJ MYSTERIOUS D, PARTY BEN, and DADA will be on hand, spinning all your mashed-up favorites, as well some fresh new bootlegs hot off the laptop!

From the UK: Live video mashup set by Jonny Wilson of ECLECTIC METHOD

Bootie is proud to present a very special audio-visual VJ mashup set featuring Jonny Wilson from UK video mashup pioneers Eclectic Method. Dubbed "the future of nightclub entertainment", their fans read like a 'Who's Who' of musical innovation and have been recognized as punk innovators for the 21st century. They've created video remixes for The Prodigy, Basement Jaxx, Dizzee Rascal, The White Stripes, M.I.A., and U2, amongst others.

Eclectic Method don't just mix videos like DJs mix records, it goes a step beyond ... take a healthy dollop of post-modern irony, a Britney sample here, an indie-rock riff there, an electronic dance anthem or two and a peppering of pop classics and you’re on your way to understanding the Eclectic Method style. Top that off with some rare hip-hop and film action mania and you’ve got an all-encompassing audiovisual show shuffling together mainstream and underground to create a live visual improvised remix experience.

Click here for a YouTube clip from Eclectic Method's new DVD:
www.youtube.com/watch

2005's "We're Not VJs" was the world's first DVJ video-mixtape and was phenomenally received. Their second mix album, "Lock Up Your Videos," was just released in January, and with their ongoing remix projects and video podcasts, they continue to push the boundaries of mashup culture.

We will have vintage TVs on the dance floor displaying the VJ show, as well as back wall projections!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From San Francisco, Bootie creators ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D

Also on the decks will be resident DJs and Bootie creators ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D aka A PLUS D, who will be throwing down all your favorite mashups, as well as some hot new tracks, fresh off the laptop! As usual, we'll be mixing and matching every musical genre, era, and style into one big A.D.D. dance party, keeping your brains guessing and bodies dancing with their creative song combinations!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bigger dance floor, Anniversary CDs, and the Pirate Lounge!

The Vault has recently expanded, and now it has a BIGGER DANCE FLOOR! The Vault has torn down one of the walls in order to make more room from your dancing pleasure. Come check out the debut of the new bigger and better Vault dance floor!

And we're bringing back the Pirate Lounge, filled with pirate booty, including the crowd's favorite dancing partner, a 6-foot inflatable pirate named "Bootleg Bart."

There will also be giveaways of the 20-track Bootie NYC One-Year Anniversary CD, which will be given to the first 100 people through the door. This limited-edition CD will feature mashups from every guest DJ from the past year, as well as Bootie New York's fan favorites.

We're looking forward to Friday, and we hope to see you there!
And don't forget, RSVP for the discount, and get there early for those free exclusive Bootie NYC CDs!

Upstairs: Introducing ELECTRO-BOOTIE, our new club-within-a-club

Those of you who keep tabs on our monthly Bootie Top 10 have probably noticed our unfettered love of dancey electro bootlegs. Hell, Adrian & the Mysterious D have been threatening to launch a new electro dance party for years ... but then Bootie kept getting in the way. But not anymore...

Starting this Saturday, and taking place every fourth Saturday of the month, we are proud to present ELECTRO-BOOTIE, our new "club-within-a-club" in the upstairs room of the DNA Lounge. This is where we'll be spinning all those electro bootlegs and covers, unofficial remixes, and electro-rock remixes that we love, but that don't really fit in with the "A vs. B" mashups that we play on the main floor. It's still gonna be Bootie-style ... but with a bass-heavy electro dance twist!

Each month we'll be showcasing a special guest DJ to join us at ELECTRO-BOOTIE, and for this first one, we are proud to welcome back bootlegger genius DJ EARWORM, creator of some of our favorite electro bootlegs. He'll be joined up there by resident DJs PARTY BEN and MYSTERIOUS D, who will finally get to spin all the electro tunes they've been saving up!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show: YA-YA vs. STEVEN SATYRICON

Bootie door girl YA-YA and go-go dancer STEVEN SATYRICON go head to head as Britney Spears vs. Kelly in this midnight mashup melee! You probably know Kelly and her YouTube hit music video, "Shoes." The two will duke it out for "More," complete with mashup video accompaniment. "Gimme more shoes!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resident DJs ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D and DADA in the main room!

We know a lot of you like it when the resident DJs take over, so on Saturday night, the main room will be all about ADRIAN & the MYSTERIOUS D, as they throw down extra-long mashup sets, as well as DADA, who will kick off the night with a special 90-minute set as well. PARTY BEN will primarily be spinning upstairs at Electro-Bootie this time, but he will also be doing a short set on the main floor as well!

There will be NO SMASH-UP DERBY on fourth Saturdays, but don't worry, Bootie's house band will be back on Saturday, March 8th ... but until then, that means that yes, you can dance on the stage all night!

Live on stage show: PARTY BEN ALIVE !

Bootie SF's resident DJ PARTY BEN has been hard at work, retiring his "Party Ben Kenobi" persona and cooking up a brand new feature DJ set, "inspired" by – as you can probably tell by the above image – last year's Daft Punk tour!

While he won't have a $2 million light-up pyramid, he will be incorporating tons of giant video and projections into his set for the first time, featuring clips put together by VJ Brewski and VJ Jaren, as well as his own mashup video creations. He did this show in San Francisco in January, and as you can see from the photo below, it was one of the best productions we've ever had at Bootie.

We are proud to be bringing this show to LA for the first time! Musically, it's going to be a "Party Ben Greatest Hits" set – so that means only one thing – be ready to dance your ass off!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Downstairs Echoplex Makeout & Chill Lounge with guest DJ MR. FAB

Once again, just like last month, we will have the downstairs Echoplex Lounge open! This means extra room to chill out, make out, and – most importantly – an extra bar to get drinks! So if it's too crowded at the main bar, just head on downstairs! Guest DJ MR. FAB will be holding it down, spinning all kinds of mashup loveliness, especially in the chilled, lounge, jazzy, reggae, abstract and novelty catagories – stuff that we don't usually get to play for the dance floor upstairs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resident DJs Adrian, Mysterious D & Paul V. spin the hits and new faves all night

As always, resident Bootie DJs ADRIAN, MYSTERIOUS D, and PAUL V. will be on the decks throughout the night, throwing down your favorite mashups, as well as spinning some brand-spankin' new tracks to get your asses on the dance floor!

And if you wanna get a taste of what's in store, tune into Paul V.'s Smash Mix this Friday at 5:30 pm on Indie 103.1. And don't forget to also check out Paul's electro/mashup/robot rock radio show on Saturday nights, Neon Noise, also on Indie 103.1 – this Saturday features a guest mix from ... Party Ben!

Starting at 10:30 PM, Warper co-creator and special guest DJ MOLDOVER will be throwing down nasty remixes and mashups, produced 100% live, on-the-fly, using Ableton Live and his custom-created controller, a style he calles live-remashing and controllerism.

At 12:30 AM, San Francisco's very own TRADEMARK G. of THE EVOLUTION CONTROL COMMITTEE, will be joining him, bringing along his own unique live-cut-up stylings, including a special presentation of "The Wheel of Mashup." The Wheel of Mashup is audience-interactive and TradeMark G. and Princess Frillypants will host your participation in rocking the dancefloor, ECC-style.

*****Burning Man Year Round RADIO: Can't be at Bootie that night? Catch the Warper Room and ECC show on www.ShoutingFire.com! Tune in Saturday night for a live broadcast!
About ShoutingFire.com radio:
Those who've followed The ECC's Burning Man experiences for the past few years will recall The ECC's involvement with BMIR 94.5 FM, Burning Man's radio station. The great times of broadcasting for that week in the desert are sullied by just one thing -- it's only for that one week. Well, we aren't the only ones: The rest of the BMIR staff felt the same way, so we've all done something about it. And that something is Shouting Fire, a year-round internet radio station spun off and inspired by BMIR and Burning Man.  And it launches this Friday, February 29th 2008.*****

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

This Saturday, we move downstairs to the Echoplex, which is bigger than The Echo, meaning everyone will have more room to dance! There's also excellent sound and lights, and – starting this month – we will be showcasing several mashup music videos in the mix as well. We are excited to start incorporating mashup videos into our regular DJ sets!

Resident mashup DJs ADRIAN, MYSTERIOUS D, and PAUL V. will be spinning mashups all night including several brand-new tracks hot off the laptop. Get ready to break in that new dance floor!

Guest DJ RAW-BURT from club BLENDER

DJ RAW-BURT is the creator of club BLENDER, a monthly party that takes place at The Faultline in Silverlake. There, Raw-Burt spins everything from indie rock, nu-wave, pop, hip-hop, 80's classics, alternative, dance, electroclash, rock, showtunes, and music from the 90's. But he specializes mostly in mashups – which is why we're happy to have him do a special guest DJ set at our first Bootie at the Echoplex!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show: The return of PRINCESS KENNEDY

Way back when BOOTIE first started in San Francisco in 2003, PRINCESS KENNEDY was our very first midnight mashup show. And when we launched our LA party two years later, she was there, as our very first BOOTIE LA performer. Back then, she used to perform at Bootie quite a bit. But then she moved back to her hometown of Salt Lake City.

However – this Saturday, the Princess is back in LA, and we are happy to have her back, as she performs our first midnight mashup show at The Echoplex! Don't miss it!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check out all the photos from last month!

Aman About Town posted a bunch of photos and blogged about last month's party, which featured the Party Ben Alive video mashup show, as well as our most dressed-up crowd ever!

Live on stage: from France, it's the return of DJ MOULE

France is a veritable hotbed of mashup talent these days, which is why Bootie is proud to present – live on stage – the triumphant return of DJ MOULE, one of the brightest stars of the currently-hot French bootleg scene.

When Moule played a late-night set at Bootie back in October, we were blown away, as he kept the club jumpin' to his unique bootleg style. Mixing indie rock with classic rock and dance beats, Moule is a natural stage performer, and he's crafted some of Bootie's most crowd-pleasing mashups.

Click here for the video DJ Zebra shot of him and Moule's trip to Bootie last year, with some live footage of them and Smash Up Derby -- www.youtube.com/watch

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11 PM: SMASH UP DERBY debuts a couple new tunes

Bootie house band SMASH UP DERBY has been hard at work this past month, cooking up some new mashups, which they promise to debut this Saturday. One of them could best be described as "goth-pop" or "darkwave R&B," and the other is a Bootie crowd favorite that you will love even more after hearing what Smash-Up Derby does with it live!

Joining them on stage will be special French guest MOULE, who will be singing a song that he and DJ Zebra played at Bootie back in October, when the two did their Bootlegs Live Band. Smash Up Derby loved the mashup, so they, ahem, "borrowed" it – now, it only seems fair that the band should give it back to Moule!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upstairs: UNDER COVER LOUNGE – cover songs all night!

This month, we celebrate our love of all forms of manipulated pop music with the debut of the UNDER COVER LOUNGE! DJs EARWORM, SUPPOSITORI SPELLING, and ADRIAN will be taking over the upstairs room and playing cover songs all night!

Be ready to not only dance your asses off, but play a guessing game of who's covering what. We'll be spinning very eclectic sets, featuring fresh takes on familiar classics, as well as a few hidden gems as well.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show: MISS MOLLY & the CHEESE PUFFS

Continuing this month's fascination with cover songs, we are proud to present the midnight mashup show debut of THE CHEESE PUFFS, featuring MISS MOLLY MOZZARELLA. They'll be doing their own unique interpretation of a Guns N' Roses song, as performed by lounge singer Richard Cheese.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DJs MYSTERIOUS D, PARTY BEN & DADA spin mashups & MASHUP VIDEOS!

In case you haven't noticed, we've starting spinning mashup videos at Bootie! Check out the big screen projection on the back wall above the stage. Resident DJs MYSTERIOUS D, PARTY BEN, and DADA will playing all your favorite mashup jams, as well as tossing in some hot new tracks fresh off the internets!

As always, we've got free Bootie CDs to the first 100 people – and it's $8 before 10:30 pm, so get there early!

While it won't have a $2 million light-up pyramid, it will be a special ALL-VIDEO mashup showcase, featuring clips put together by VJ Brewski and VJ Jaren, as well as his own mashup video creations. He's done this show in San Francisco and Los Angeles, and now, he's finally bringing it to New York City.

DJ WiiJ band MIYAMOTO presents Super Mash Brothers: Bootie

This Saturday, it's the next evolution of DJing – it's the live DJ WiiJ band, MIYAMOTO, who will be debuting their new stage show, Super Mash Brothers: Bootie (Yes, this is a band rife with Nintendo references!) Miyamoto is a unique hybrid band which combines a DJ using hacked Nintendo Wii controllers (known as "WiiJing") with live guitar, video mixing, keyboards, and other Wii devices, such as a wireless Guitar Hero controller.

For the gearheads in the crowd, it's a tech wet dream – but for the rest of us who just want to dance and party, Miyamoto delivers the goods, playing a dance-friendly set of Wii-controlled mashup hits!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upstairs room: ELECTRO-BOOTIE

Every fourth Saturday of the month, we present ELECTRO-BOOTIE in the upstairs room, our "club-within-a-club" where we showcase electro bootlegs, covers, and remixes.

This month, our favorite mashup DJ from Philadelphia, DJ MAXENTROPY, joins us on the decks for some electro goodness, while MR. ANTHONY – who spun an amazing electro set at GUILTY at the last Bootie – returns to rock the dance floor!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Midnight mashup show: FUNK4SOUL dance collective

We've been featuring a lot more dance troupes for the midnight mashup show, and this Saturday, we are proud to feature the dance collective FUNK4SOUL, the dance-child of choreographer Lee Pazmino. They'll be performing a sizzling dance number to one of their own custom mashups!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
DJs ADRIAN, MYSTERIOUS D, and DADA spin mashups and video!

Your resident Bootie DJs ADRIAN, MYSTERIOUS D, and DADA will also be on the decks, throwing down some fresh mashup sets, as well as tossing in some new bootleg videos into the mix.

As always, we've got free Bootie CDs to the first 100 people – and remember, it's now only $6 before 10 pm! So get there early! See you on Saturday!
