A Better New Year's Eve...
I've been having a lot of people ask me, and I'll explain exactly why you heard there was a party at my house for New Years, but you haven't seen any postings or details:
There's a buncha things going down this year for New Year's Eve, but nothing sounded really appealing to me. Warehouse parties, concerts, clubs, bars, etc... I started thinking, why was it that I used to have so much fun on New Year's Eve? I realized, back in the day, we had wild parties, but they weren't just random huge gatherings, they were more than that. They were a get-together of our extended friends groups. Even if there were 100 of us, it was 100 friends, where we all knew each other, we mostly all liked each other and we could all be comfortable in the cozy space of my house or the Bungle-O, etc.
So, I decided, this year I don't want to spend New Year's Eve in a bar or club, fighting for a drink, amidst random people needing a place to drink in the new year. I don't want to be in a cold hard warehouse, surrounded by oh-so-hip scenesters I barely pretend to enjoy at Lipstick each week. I want comfort. I want friends. I want something simple and fun and back to the basics, back to the reason I enjoyed partying with all you folks in the first place.
And I'm not the only one who feels this way. I've been surprised (but heartened) by the amount of people who have said the same things as me, or agreed with what I said. Sounds like a lot of you are looking for something a bit more fun to celebrate this year's milestone. So...
The Return of the Annual NYE Bash @ 6Q's!
If you've been to the O St. parties, you're invited. If you're someone I actually enjoy talking to and hanging out with, not just shaking your hand at a bar, you're invited. If you are friends with my roommates or I, you're invited. If you're a random party troller, who knows that 6Q parties are always a blast, and you figure you can bum some free beer, you're NOT invited.
Friends and family here people. Come packed with beer, booze, or champagne - I doubt I have enough for everyone. Bring a friend or two if you'd like, but don't roll up with a buncha people I don't know or don't like. Remember though - I know (and even like) a LOT of people, so I don't think this'll put too much of a damper on this party...
Anyway, 9 or 10p, 15th & V, downtown Sac. fun times. See you all tonight!
