Actually Ida, people are coming in for Remember the Black Party from other parts of the United States (NYC, Pennsylvania & Florida to name a few) and the World (Ireland and the UK)! :D
Cool -- the more the merrier (and the less locals, the better 8) )
Oh, sorry mods -- I didn't see this section when I posted. Thanks for moving! :oops:

How many mirror balls this time !!!!!??? :D
Anything different to report this time around ?? What gets done differently deco wise for the black party ?? ( Or is this secret 'wait n see' info ?? )

YES!!! There will be more MBs if things go as planned. However, alot of the "Black Party" mood is going to be with the music! Jerry's dragging out some terrific Trocadero classics I completely forgot about. Just remember the theme on the poster, "The sexier side of disco." Maybe we'll see you there, Remicks??! Marky, how about you? Jeff and I would love for you to be at the party with us.Originally Written by remicks

I'm hoping to KEEFELC :D !! I've got a scheduling problem this time around (vacation :P ) ..so don't know if it's going to be possible yet .....
I want to highly suggest to anyone who'll be in the Bar Area , California , the United States ( ...and loves disco) during that time ..this is such a great opportunity . One of my main reasons for going before was just to be able to hear the old era music ......... mixed live and played loudly on a great sound system .... the way it was always intended . This is such a great rare opportunity to be presented that experience .....
:D

I'll cross my fingers that you'll be able to make it, Remicks! Jerry has already been to the club several times to get an idea how to tweak the sound system to sound better this time (and to check out how his reedits sound on a big system!). People that have heard some of the sneak previews (unfortunately I'm not one of them since he goes while I'm at work) are extremely excited.Originally Written by remicks
BTW, "Bar" Area - guess that's a good description of SF! :lol:

Keefelc ...such teases are not fair :P
I've no doubt the music and the mixes will be terrific ..... I was there and heard them last time !!!
If I can ..... I will be there.....
I hope many others are planning to attend ......both those that want to re-experience some of those old times .... as well as those that were too young or whateveter and now want to get some idea of what it was like. The Troc is the real deal folks. It's been modified and sadly is now smaller ... but it is still more the same than not ...when you first pass through those doors that's the same way it was all those years ago ..... And to hear that music in there ....... 8)
And I found the crowd and everyone to be great and there for the right reasons ..... to mix and mingle ...to hear the music ... and mostly to dance their disco asses off....... the floor was full all night .... :D
(I knew both the Bay Area and The Bar Area pretty well back then :P )

Everyone else, Remicks couldn't have describe the past parties more perfectly. We hope to see you disco lovers there! The producers throw these parties for the LOVE of the music we heard and danced to at Trocadero. They don't get rich off of these events. In fact, the parties are fundraisers for "Under One Roof." Many of us donate our time to the events in the hopes the Trocadero Transfer magic lives on for just a little longer. If you can, come and share the joy! :DOriginally Written by remicks
The name of the event on October 9th has just been changed to 'Remember' the Troc Party! Who knew that "The Black Party" is now a registered trademark of The Saint At Large Inc.??? However, this event continues to celebrate the spirit and atmosphere of the Black Parties at Trocadero of the 70s and 80s.
A rose is a rose is a rose! :D
>> registered trademark "Black Party"
The nerve... anyway I am sure there will be a shortage of "Black Party" garb in SF the weekend of the party... so be advised... lol!
Here we go, the weekend of 'Remember' the Troc Party is finally here!!! I am most curious if people will take this opportunity to have an excuse to dress up. Of course, since we're in San Francisco, maybe I should say dress down??? :D
Who from this Board will we see?
I'll be there! :D

Keefe ....... :cry: .....I'm still dealing with this damn head cold .... going to work today ...... and if I wake up in the morning , feeling better ... I might zoom up there . I just know I'll read that playlist afterward and hate myself for missing it ..... :P ....
Have a great time IDA ..... is this your first one ??
I meant to mention one thing for first timers... I know last time I was concerned about us being there from 6-2 and getting .... hungry ! Didn't want to have to interupt the night to go eat something . So we took munchies like trail mix . BUT.... upstairs was a nice complimentary spread with fruit like bananas and cookies and I believe even water ..... ( besides the drinks from the bar of course ) .....
That was a nice thoughtful touch ..... :D 8)
I know it'll be a blast ........
REMICKS
