Some of you Burners may recall that for my first Burn, I camped with the Space Virgins back in '07. It was a loverly first Burn, and I've had a soft spot for the Virgins ever since. They had their 20th anniversary party cum fund raiser last night, and I have to say it was a success: mighty fine DJing from Riz Rollins, Levi Clark, et al. Eye candy both walking and otherwise.
This Burner party was unusual in that the median age of attendees seemed to approach my own. I got to ask people, "Before or after my time?" I stayed out crazy late and wrecked my voice. I've spent most of the day sleeping.
And I think I've found the secret for parking in Belltown on a weekend night, and against my better judgment I'll divulge it: 5th Ave. - yes, under the monorail tracks - between 8:00 and 10:00 PM.
I ran into the Siberian Siren's main squeeze L, and I mentioned to her that the SS was taking over my life on the Saturday before Pride but that I had no plans for Friday night. Naturally, she handed me a flyer for her crew Shameless's record release at Kremwerk that night. I don't have a better offer, Shameless doesn't suck, I've been meaning to check out Kremwerk, and L's got some love coming from the universe. I believe I have a plan. If I'm to walk there from the (2nd annual) trans pride march earlier that day at Cal Anderson park, I better wear my comfy shoes.
Science is hard. Let's go shopping... for more equipment & supplies.
