Prince Purple Party - Recap & Partial setlist

The first Prince Purple Party recap

There was lots of dancing, smiles, Prince songs and purple.

Positive energy was abound as you grooved, gyrated and got down to the music.
The fashion was spectacular! You are a gorgeous lot!

It was a great way to celebrate a birthday and I thank everyone who participated including everyone dancing, the DJs who spun the music with me (Jason Savvy, Jack Stauss & Henry Self), The Holding Co. (venue), Brian Erzen photography, Lina Lecaro (LA Weekly) and the amazing aerial silk artistry of Pamela Samuelson. Watching her attach and dismantle the silk from the rafters was quite intense!


My feet were sore from Prince-esque dance moves in my tall white boots, but it was worth it ;)
If you have photos from Saturday, please send links.

Here is what I spun from 1:30am until 3am (other sets will be added)

P - Let's Go Crazy
P - Delerious
p - Dance On
Morris Day & The Time - Cool
P - New Position

Setlist from RevellShok's First Fridays #2

Sunshine Cleaning, BRUNO (Borat Follow Up) & First Fridays

Yesterday I helped a friend move all day and then in the evening, I went to see Sunshine Cleaning, starring an ensemble of Amy Adams, Emily Blunt, Alan Arkin and Steve Zahn. I saw this at The Arclight Cinema in Hollywood, where I view most films. Five of us went and none of us knew much about it apart from me reading off a line about biohazard cleanups. The film focuses on two sisters who wind up falling into the business of cleaning up after crime scenes. This brings about issues with their own loss and while it has serious moments, it is a very well organized farce and I highly recommend this, particularly if you like films such as Little Miss Sunshine and The Royal Tenenbaums.



I am off now to head to a pre-release screening of Sacha Baron Cohen's follow up film to Borat and Ali G., BRUNO.

The full working title is Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner in a Mesh T-Shirt which is expected to hit theatres on the 10th of July here in the states.


++++

Tomorrow night is the 2nd installment of the FIRST FRIDAYS party which successfully brought a wide variety of people together to enjoy a wide variety of music. It was amazing to have over 500 people enjoying an evening together. (btw, beyond the drink specials and absinthe, the FOOD, is great!)

Recap-Setlist of last Friday @MedusaLounge & COVENANT REMIX

1. Short Recap
2. Set list
3. Covenant - We Want Revolution (Shok's ReRevelation)

First of all... I had a great day with Johnette today. I am very excited about the new project. More on that later... but I wanted to express that so I can realize today was a good day!

Secondly, here is my remix of the Covenant song, "We Want Revolution"
Covenant - We Want Revolution (Shok's ReRevelation) via mediafire
Covenant - We Want Revolution (Shok's ReRevelation) by fdaallday

I played a rough version of this last Friday... which leads me to the next topic.

Last Friday, was amazing!!! It was the opening night of my new monthly party with Darren Revell at the gorgeous, Medusa Lounge. I like to keep my mind open to all possibilities and was surprised that after only 45 minutes of us having had door open, to learn 35 people had already paid. This increased quickly and by midnight there were 375 people paid. This is not even including the guest list!!!

The total number of attendees broke 500 and needless to say, we are eager to celebrate again next month. I had not seen so many people dancing all night in ages... When I was not spinning, I was dancing! My other gage was seeing Legion dancing almost all night!

We even had Ms. Jill Tracy rockin it!

SO...
Here you go, our first First Fridays @ Medusa Lounge set list.

Darren started the evening and then ended as well. D++ continued around 11 and I took the plates around midnight.
