JAMES_BONDAGE ~The Deviant Fairytale~ Feb 11 Squamish BC

woodhead — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:40:02 -0800

Tick tock, tick tock, time to hit the dance floor it's 9 o'clock! Boom, and just like that the countdown to the greatest party of the year is officially on! Trinity Romance's 8th edition of our annual James Bondage Valentines Fundraising Extravaganza has now arrived and donations are officially being taken.

Centred deep within a dark European forest comes the ghost of fairytales past in a theme that spirals around a Brothers Grimmesque tale where dark will quarrel with light, and good will struggle with evil in a battle of the ages. Populated with an array of characters from stories long ago our minds will wander down a garden path of ecstasy and desire in a synchronous mind-thumping beat. This years performances will include the traveling forest creatures known as the Myth Makers, and the ever-riling Sweet Soul Burlesque troupe who are poised and ready to ‘bring it’. The gypsy queen Jezebel will also be seen transforming a brass pole into a medium of art, and passion.

This years line up of bass bumpin’, booty shakin’ dj and producers will feature:

Woodhead (Vancouver) Crippled Wheel (Squamish)
Librarian ( Basscoast) Dagan Beach (Whistler)
Craiger, (SquamishFM)
Just Sheila (Squamish FM)
Spilt Milk( Vancouver, Homebreakin)

Gypsy Phantom (Squamish)
Kori K (Whistler, House Party)

and the ever legendary MC Think Tank!

Get your tickets soon, they won’t last long….

Double Bounce - Whistler Sat. Jan 28

woodhead — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:03:21 -0800

&Entertainment, K Su Photography, Smooth Sound Productions, Love Hertz Events, Mixmaster Fab Sound System and Lighthead Visuals are all combining forces to bring you the new standard in next level underground events in Whistler, BC Canada!

We will not be using the Bounce Trampoline Venue this time around... we have secured two large rooms elsewhere where we will hold then entire event. Please don't show up to Bounce Acrobatic Center Saturday looking for the event.

We're introducing two separate rooms each with their own respective theme, a full size bouncy castle with padded play zone, comfortable shoes off lounge area away from the action, there are multiple clean washrooms, big time professional sound and lighting all indoors in two comfortable rooms that will accomodate several hundred of our closest friends!

Our friends at LightHead Visuals will be doing a full video mapping visual display.

http://www.facebook.com/LightheadVisuals

This event is a totally 100% organic community initiative designed to be free of sponsors, advertising, commercialism and corporate influence. You are encouraged to be as creative and expressive as humanly possible. Be true to your yourself, your surroundings and the people who will be sharing this grounded experience with you.

What do you think a gathering like this might cost to attend?

This next level event is valued at a minimum donation of $20 and that's just enough to cover the rental of the space, production equipment and our entertainment for the evening. We are proud to say that we're taking events to the next level while keeping it affordable so that you'll have enough money left over to take a safe, warm and comfortable taxi home when you ready.

One more thing; we all know how bad bottled water is to our health and to the environment, so being the enlightened people we all are, water will NOT be available for purchase. Never has and never will be at our parties because its just morally wrong to sell water. That's right, water will be free! We ask every single person attending to please, please for your and their own well being and comfort, bring a reusable water container. You will be extremely happy you did!

Request your time off now, find your favorite children's themed costume, dig up some toys, washout your reusable water container, call your friends and arrange to share a taxi, this is going to be one event this year that is not to be missed. The hype is real, now you know the deal. Bounce!

New Year Day Sweatacular!

karlis — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 14:13:58 -0800

I have a dream. Every New Years Day there is a very popular polar bear swim at 2:30pm down in English Bay and I imagine getting all superheated in the sauna and stepping out steaming and casually walking into the ocean, no problem. What a hit the saunatruck would be at event like this!

The problem is we're never awake or in any shape to drive a big truck at 2:30pm on January 1. Typically on a New Years day we've just gone to bed around noon, and the sauna is still hot and probably in use by a few leftover revelers. We actually did have it parked by the ocean one year, 2002 I believe, and I was standing in the ocean on New Years Day (at like 230am, not pm), but we never make it out to that polar bear swim.

This year is no exception. And like all new year's days, we will be celebrating with a sweat. It's also a sunday, which we also traditionally celebrate with a sweat. It's also the Saunasessions 11th anniversary, which we will celebrate with a sweat. That's three celebrations and three sweats, all in one evening.

We'll be at our current location, the Hammock Residency, 1923 Gravely st, alley entrance. The box will be hot from 6pm-12. I have heard that Orkestar Slivovica is also having a super jam party next door, so since we're all down for a good time this should be a new years day to (try to) remember. And if you can't make the swim at least get in a good polar bear shower.

I hope you can wake up, come down and join us.

Sweet Soul & Shah Djs present: Warriors Of Time NYE 2012

woodhead — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 09:27:54 -0800

Special night in the works to slay 2011 and bring in 2012 with a bang. Hope you can make it.

A message from Crystal Precious:
My Dear Darling Sasspots,

Wow. It's been a long time my darlings. So many changes. SO many costume changes! I suppose as with everything, we evolve. And now with 2012 approaching it's like a whole wack of change is on the brink of slapping us in the face. Umm... what the crap is gonna happen now? So many new messages and causes abound... and of course the answers vary with all of us. Different shades and angles, all travelling at varying speeds; bolts of blue, red, and obviously, PINK. ;)

NYE 2012, we regroup - as Warriors of Time.

We invite you to suspend reality for a night and unearth your inner warrior. Be it ninja, samurai, knight or sith. Be it wrestler, road-warrior, droid or drag queen. Use the greats throughout history as inspiration, or move away from them altogether. Whoever you truly identify with, whatever you feel symbolizes your strength, put that shit on. And whatever secret powers you possess... bring them to life in the tradition of our dark Vancouver playgrounds. And then - let's fucking dance.

“Dance, when you're broken open. Dance, if you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you're perfectly free.” - Rumi

Sweet Soul & SHAHdjs present

Podcast: Dane's @Homebreakin Body Language Mix

woodhead — Sat, 03 Dec 2011 14:01:12 -0800

Dane dropped this mix to get us sexed up for his set at Body Language at The Beaumont tonight. It worked! Listen here. http://saunasessions.ca/mp3/Dane-Body-Language-At-Beaumont-Studio-Dec-Pr...

See you tonight.

Dane (Common Edit, Edmonton)

The massively successful Foosh / Treehouse / Common empire has spawned many progeny over the years, but none so instantly classic as our man Dane. His all-vinyl disco, soul, and cosmic sets have won the hearts of Soundwavers, slow-ravers, and dancefloor slavers across western Canada, and probably many other places I'm not aware of. He's humble, self-effacing, really funny, and talented. He is also handsome. Check out their "Common Edit" series featuring Western Canada's most discerning editors tackling classic fare.
