Weekend Details...
Posted on Oct 21, 2009
Another quick, post-weekend event update for y'all. October has been a super busy month, which pretty much peaks for a lot of us this weekend:
"Bloom" - Friday, October 21
First off on Friday night, we have a unique dance and dine event - "Bloom" at Radha Yoga & Eatery on Main Street. Piandre and Frantiq will be providing music during dinner from 6:00pm onward. After 10:00pm, the volume gets turned up a bit and Drew David, Cannabinoid and I will be playing until 2:00am. This is a great crew of people I've just gotten to know over the summer, and I'm really looking forward to this evening! To find out more about Radha and what they're all about, have a look here. Also bear in mind that 50% of profits from the evening go to benefit the Friends of Radha charitable organisation.

"Bootleg" - Saturday, October 22
So we're less than a week away from the next Soundproof party, "Bootleg." As you could probably tell from the event description, the theme is centered around the concept of a 1920s Prohibition era Speak Easy. Tickets are going pretty fast, so we're only having 2 ticket checkpoints this time around as opposed to 3. Due to the limited size of the venue, we're only be selling 130 tickets for this event. It's highly recommend you grab your ticket in advance! If you can't get a hold of a Soundproof crew member in advance, the meeting points for tickets will be as follows:
*As per usual, look for the orange dinosaur!*
Friday October 23 - 6:30-7:30pm
Starbucks - 398 Robson St (@ Homer)
Saturday October 24 - 12:00 - 1:00pm
Starbucks - 398 Robson St (@ Homer)
A couple of other important things!
Where exactly is the party happening? Well, details will be posted on the website Friday night/Saturday morning for the exact address and directions to the venue: http://www.soundproof.ca/
As for the DJ schedule for the evening, it's been finalized:
10:00pm - Johan "Yo' Thornton - LIVE PA
11:00pm - The Trucker
12:00am - Chris Singer
1:00am - Miss Innocent
2:00am - Drew David
3:00am - Evan Jones
4:00am - Jason Tamplin
5:00am - PK
Cheers, and hope to see you out this weekend!

Upcoming Events...
Posted on Sep 15, 2009
So, fast on the heels of my last entry documenting the end of the summer festival season, here's a quick note about what the Fall is going to look like. In short, it's going to be busy!
A small group of Soundproof DJs will be taking over the Anza Club on Saturday, October 3rd. I believe on deck this time around are myself, Colleen (Ms. Innocent), Andy (Drew David) and Chris Singer. As per usual, no cover, cheap drinks, loud music, friendly faces!
On Friday, October 23, Drew David and I have been invited to play alongside Spaceman Spliff at the next "Bloom" at Radha Yoga & Eatery. We're both pretty excited about this. Join us for dinner, followed by dancing until 2:00am at what I've heard is a really amazing space.
The next little bit of news might come as a pleasant surprise to people: Soundproof is going to be throwing 2 indoor parties this Fall.
The first one will be on Saturday, October 24 and the second one is going to be on Saturday, December 12. Space at both parties will be limited, especially for the October event. I'll post contact information and more details on the October event in the next week. But, if you want to come out, I'd *really* suggest you get your tickets well in advance, as we're definitely going to sell out ahead of time.
Oh, and I'm still totally flogging this video.
