Let us take you dancing

Fog and Laser this Saturday at the Rickshaw!

Fog & Laser!!

I'm super-excited to announce Fog and Laser, a new party I'm starting with good friend Steve MacDonald, launching at the Rickshaw Stop on Saturday April 23rd. We've always enjoyed the type of party when you get to play whatever you want, and like any great house party, it's always best when it's dark and full of intrigue. Fog machines and lasers seem to be the best bet for an over-the-top fun and crazy night. (I've been stockpiling them in our apartment for months, much to Sandy's dismay.) With laser portraits, special guests, and more, it promises to be an epic night, so don't miss it!

Who: me and Steve, aka DJs EmDee and RamblinWorker
What: a genre-free, anything goes dance party
When: Saturday, April 23rd, doors at 9:00 pm
Where: Rickshaw Stop, 155 Fell St @ Van Ness
Why: it's time to dance!

Winterfest

Winterfest is this Sunday night! The end-of-year extravaganza at SOMArts is both a benefit for + celebration of the SF Bike Coalition, and includes a silent auction, an art auction (to which we donated a piece), a screenprinting station, a photobooth and more. Plus, a 1-year SFBC membership is included with the price of admission. Hope to see you there!

Farewell Fastpass

Our love affair with the Fastpass ended a bit before it was forced into retirement by the Clipper Card, but still we feel it's only proper to say farewell to something that got us around the city so stylishly for so long. We know we weren't the only ones enamored with these two-toned cards—from the collector above to our friend Christina who created a fun photo series to document her last month with hers (photos below).

Maybe one day we'll do something creative with our collection...

In the meantime, you can see Christina's full series here, a Fastpass art show here, and vintage Fastpasses here. The Clipper Card may be more convenient but it has some big shoes to fill.
