Get a little PLUMP w/ Sammy Bliss & Nick the Neck! (events » nightlife) Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 9:00 PM 326 RSVPs Plump
Fat Vibe * Juicy Beats

Saturday March 15th, 2008
9pm - 5am

It's gonna be a fat beat smackdown fo sho on this one! What a combination of audio alchemists lined up to rock your soul. A visit from our old pal Sammy Bliss, first ever Plump appearances from Nick the Neck, and Bazooka Joe, plus your explosive Alma residents! And endless cool things to look at with featured artist Cristina McAllister, and guest VJ NIO visiting us for this edition of Plump! You just can't hold back the plumpness. Now, for the theme! Turns out our party coincides with an international day for peace, and since we're not exactly on the frontlines of anti-war protest, we thought we'd support the cause in our own way: with decor, fashion, music and vibes. I know it's hard to dress up as peace, but we trust you'll pull it off in your own special way...and then there's always pomegranates...

We’re not collaborating, we’re not playing for someone else . . . this is gonna be an good old fashioned Pocket Party.

It’s a night focused on the music. Pocket DJ’s bringing the dirty funk in one room and LALA bringing the juicy sexy down-tempo in the other.

Over 30 artists and performers will make the event truly spectacular!

Burners Without Borders is a disaster relief organization made up entirely of volunteers.

Join us for an evening of inspired art, eye-catching shows, delicious music and a worthy cause.

Bring the HEAT! (events » nightlife) Wednesday, April 1, 2009 - 10:00 PM 330 RSVPs Hey look, Tribe is still here! Who knew?

Just wanted to shout out about our gig tomorrow (Wed.) night. I haven't played out in a good while, been working a ton, but tomorrow night we're bringing back an old school, back in the day tag team duo . . . Sammy Bliss & Saynt! A special "April Fool's" set that is sure to make you jump for joy.

Yes folks it's true. Some of you will be instantaneously transported back to the days of the FirePLAYce when Saynt and I used to tear it up . . . back when we were the new DJ's on the block! Saynt and I started spinning at exactly the same time, and we played publicly for the first time together at Hyjynx's birthday party years ago! Ahhh memories.

Anyway, come out Wednesday night to Zanzibar and join our little reunion. Rumor has it that Saynt and I are playing 10:30-12:30, though we can neither confirm nor deny that information. I mean, we could . . . but then we'd have to kill you.

Just for the record, we are both totally open to the idea of you buying us a drink if you want to, no pressure though. We still like people who don't buy us drinks . . . maybe a little less, but it's all good. ;o}

Sammy Bliss & Jesse Wright at Technique! (events » nightlife) Tuesday, June 23, 2009 - 9:00 PM 325 RSVPs I know, I know . . . this flyer is NOT RIGHT! I don't know what happened, who got paid off or who (Jesse Wright) offered a certain "someone" (Michael Hart) a certain "sexual favor" (hand job), but Jesse Wright's name is SO totally supposed to be below mine. It clearly states in my contract that I get top billing over Jesse Wright on alternating Jewish holidays, anytime we play in Iceland and on Tuesday nights when playing at a venue with two "Z's" in the name. So here we are, playing a sweet 3 hour set at ZanZibar and I get 2nd billing. WTF?

You can bet your sweet ass I've got my agent on the phone and heads are gonna roll! Ok, I don't have an agent . . . but neither does Jesse so why should he get top billing? Stupid Jesse . . . kick him in the nuts . . . . grumble grumble . . .

SO YEAH . . . come out tomorrow night and help me kick Jesse repeatedly in the nuts! Why? 'Cuz it's fun dammit! Then you can buy us a drink! YAY!
