Thrill in the Exchange

Halloween experience rocks EEC.
(UPDATE: Thriller gallery now up!)

What a resounding, ridonkulous success!

Muy bonita Bundown (ed: can someone verify the broken Spanish?  Gorky?) is due to all the patrons that reached our first ever Thriller party.  Though billed as a two-room venue, the venue failed to inform us we would only have the main room at our disposal, so we certainly apologize for the missing side room – more notice than the day of the event would have been appreciated.  Turned out to be a blessing because the entire main room was blazin’ with a likkle bit of e’eryting ‘n’ ting: soul, funk, rap AND house.

Here’s the Thriller gallery…

THRILLER

Ugotpegged.com was up in thurr all night & check for the Thriller gallery on their site. 

Extra special shouts to our sponsors SHOPGIRL and STARTING LINEUPS, our security, door & bar staff, our special guests Brent Phillips and Alphagroove and props to Lazo‘s “baby”, the “zombies” and “Edward Scissorhands” for their excellent representations in costume!  

Nothing but smiles all ’round for our first co-promotion with Next Level and Soundwave Entertainment.  It will certainly not be the last…in fact, Next Level is onboard once again for the next installment of WTF?, which takes place on Friday, November 23 at Academy Food, Drinks, Music, 437 Stradbrook (formerly known as Osborne Freehouse) and we will be providing an assist on the promo tip for Soundwave’s Roger Sanchez and Method Man shows.
