Big thanks to all of you who came out to SnowFest! It was perhaps the best yet. The Mog sounded (and looked) great and so did all of our DJs! Oh, you looked great too! Did I look great? Probably more like exhausted, cause I was, having just too much fun. I think the only time I sat down was on a chairlift. It was great riding with you all and seeing so many smiling faces. It even snowed on our parade, and it only made it better! The only negative experience I had was being forced to pull the plug on Saturday afternoon (....bitches), but y’all quickly resumed the mayhem Saturday night. Mad props all around. Friday night was the biggest (and perhaps craziest) night the Plaza Bar had ever seen (more on that some other time) no small part due to Rrrus, Brad Robinson and Tamo (w/ help from Viajay). Outside at the Lakeside was equally ridiculous (w/ djs J9, Bassben, Rrrus and Brad), especially when you factor in the temperature. The dance-floor inside just didn’t quit either (w/ Aaron Jae, ShOOey, Mancub Shissla and Kapt’n Kirk on the ones and twos).

Thanks to all of our RIPE friends, both non-djs and djs alike who gave a hand one way or another throughout the course of the weekend.

Most importantly, I want to give a special shout out to all the non-DJ Space Cowboys, who rarely get any love, but really deserve a big chunk of the credit. Next time you see them, tell them how much you loved their set, err I mean contribution, and let them know you realize it just couldn’t happen without them. They are the true rock-stars.

I’ve got to go get a massage now, but we’ll see y’all soon!

First off, I want to thank everyone who came on down to the End Up for The Show this past Saturday. It was a really freekin’ fun time. The DJs rocked it and the dance floor was packed the entire night, even with the rain. It was great to see so many familiar faces and hang out with a bunch of new ones at that. I really want to thank everyone for their patience in dealing with the line (and the door process in general). Many of you heeded our advice and came down early (thank you!) and yet encountered an unnecessarily long line. Many of you were rock-stars and patiently waited, and some understandably bailed. I want to personally apologize for that unnecessary part. That’s not how the Space Cowboy’s roll. We talked to the club about it as it was going down; and WE did everything we could at the time to get you solid peeps in there…. but it still didn’t go down not exactly as we would like, and I personally was frustrated about it. There were certain behaviors by the door staff that just weren’t acceptable… and assure you that you’ve got no better advocates than us, we take a quality night out seriously AND CLEARLY SO DO YOU!!! So thanks again for coming down, (despite our soggy weather) and rockin’ it with us again!

On the upside, all this soggy weather means killer conditions in Tahoe, and we’re getting stoked about SnowFest! It’s Friday March 5th – Sunday March 7th. Much of it will be similar to last year (why not? that shit went off!) ... Rockin’ it slope-side at Squaw all day on Friday and Saturday; with nocturnal mayhem Friday night at Squaw and Saturday night in Tahoe City at the Lakeside. Get your lodging squared away now, and get ready for some alpine shenanigans!

Let it snow!
