Are you getting enough dairy? Because here's some cheese..
Axis has been one of the best things of my life. One of my favorite things to go to as well as one of the things I actually allow myself pride. Creating this event with Libby has helped to solidify the community in Bloomington (and surrounding areas) that really just needed a focal point. An Axis, if you will. Which is not to say that Axis isn't as kick-ass-amazing-epic as it is.
Why am I getting so sentimental on you, you ask? Well, I'm moving to Seattle. I start driving January 17th.
And while Axis will continue under new guidance (Adam, your resident DJ; and Matt, your favorite Math Geek; with Libby in the wings), it will certainly change. What matters is that all you amazing people - the people that make up the community we helped give a name to - keep it alive. Keep dancing. Keep talking to each other. Keep sharing music and meeting new people and dropping quarters.
All this said, I'm pleased at what my last Axis will be. January 1st we will have the Ghosts Project back from Atlanta (you remember them, the violin/drums/bass amazing music that we waltzed to at the Steampunk Axis), and Nathan of Abney Park is also returning to play with them. Dark Side Tribal will shake those amazing hips for you again. And - here's the kicker - it's a black-tie event. Take that as you will. We'll provide some snacky-treats, good tunes, and the dance floor.
Come celebrate the times you've had at Red and bl00 Axis, and get geared up for the new times you all will create. Give me a hug. And dance. Always.
