The Inferno de L'Impur troupe hosted a little party for the anniversary of the beginning of their special fetish performance routines.  It was full of the usual fun and games, just a lack of fire, as almost all venues now prohibit that sort of display thanks to that little bit by Great White earlier in the year.  It was no less interesting though, but a bit sad.  This would be the last performance by Veronica the Fire Vixen.  She is moving on to bigger acts in bigger cities. view more photos from this event ...

On a little more than a whim, a friend and I jumped in the car and headed south to Springfield for a one of a kind event featuring Happy Hardcore!  The all night rave-a-thon featured DJ Flippy from Austin, Poximal from Atlanta, White Russian from Boston, Noi from Winston-Salem, Dazee Cutter w/ MC Pibb out of Dallas, Polar from over in St Louis, Ziggy Trix from Fayetteville along with Elekid and Manny from Chicago. With a theme featuring the Power Puff Girls, who could resist; not many from that area, and then some from St Louis and Kansas City.  We didn't make it down until around 10 pm, and the party was already in full swing.  It was a fun-filled night indeed.   view more photos from this event

There was a little Afterhours event down at the dirty little Guinotte place.  I am not sure what the occasion was, but there were some fine beats from the likes of Radionic, Clockwerk, Bucho, and Jon NuSkool. view more photos from this event

I dropped in for a few quick shots of Darian's birthday celebration.  I think he is manager or something like that.  It was kind of early, and there were not too many folks there. view more photos from this event

How could I pass up the opportunity to visit the 2nd Annual Libra Soiree (aka the birthday party for Robin - BPostive).  Tyrone Blea, Ninalicious Maxx, KTHPM, Roland, J-Fyvo and Fitzroger rounded out the lineup.  There might have been someone after that, but the photo is cut off.  It was great time though, and I look forward to the 3rd in the series.  Happy Birthday, Robin! view more photos from this event

After the little bash downtown with CROMA, I dropped in to catch the last bit of the rehearsal by the I band at their little spot in the bottoms.  All followed up by beats from a few local DJs.   view more photos from this event

A different sort of event took the stage, in a bit of a rave / spiritual setting, featuring Jeffrey Zion out of Indianapolis, Ethan Bliss from Manhattan, Guru Sole out of Lawrence, and KC locals DCVS and Dan & Jon. view more photos from this event

Frisky turned Kabal upside with the East Coast Boogiemen from DC dropped into town and battled The Lawnchair Generals to keep the dance floor moving.  They definitely succeeded.  This was a fun and fabulous night, once again proving Kabal is the place to be. view more photos from this event

A crazy Wednesday night at the Hurricane, with a visit from Bizar out of Washington, DC, along with support from local support from 1.800 vs Phelyne, SvS, Dappa aka KTHPM, Ben Fuller, and Clockwerk from Breakbotix.  At one point a bridal party invaded the space adding their own sort of flavor. view more photos from this event

On late notice, I took out for midtown, after hearing about a little impromptu gig at the shelter at Loose Park.  I am not entirely sure if more folks had been there or not.  By the time I got there, all that was left was a DJ playing for a promoter, another DJ, a dedicated fan, one guy passed out, and someone claiming to be a former Hare Krishna from Oregon.  We had fun just hanging around though, listening to House. there are no more photos from this event
