We are getting a little bit of an early start this month, because it’s going to be a very special party. We are celebrating the release of a fantastic new book called Pride and Prejudice and ZOMBIES! Oh yes, Jane Austen with a twist of Zombies…. and NINJAS? Get your costumes ready, because whether you go as a zombie or a ninja, Tommy B will be doing a special photo booth for you to carry out your epic battles. The DJ’s are yet to be announced, but they’re awesome so keep an eye out for future announcements. And perhaps an un-dead thriller dance session on the patio after midnight? You never know….
NOW LET’S PARTY!
I have to say that this is by far my favorite Blow Up LA flyer that I’ve ever been fortunate enough to model on. It allowed me to take my traditional Lolita attire, and take it to the next, guro-lolita, level. I have to thank three very special Los Angeles Lolitas (Jen, Lauran, and Lauren) for helping me with the outfit and make up. Everyone did a great job:)

Although not directly related to Blow Up LA, everyone likes free music. So here’s an awesome mix and a story that goes with it you can read while the mix downloads!
A long time ago, when I was really into the drum and bass scene in Florida in 1999, I was at an event where a record was thrown off the turntables and into the crowd. Yes, people used records to mix then! I’m not talking serrato records either! Anyhow, that record flew into a ceiling fan, which catapulted it down at a ridiculous speed….right into my FACE. I was knocked completely out cold and fell down. This was the first time I met UK drum and bass producer/dj and owner of East Side Records, A-Sides. He was so concerned that he ran over and picked me up and helped me. I ended up with a mild concussion, and an adopted big brother. It’s been ten years since that night, and I couldn’t have asked for a more hilarious start to an incredible friendship. A-sides has dropped more drum and bass mixes and original tracks than you can imagine during that time, but this mix is actually one of the rarer hip hop mixes of all 80s tracks. It’s rad as hell, and you probably will enjoy it:) Huge thank you to him for sending this over to me!
80s Hip Hop Mix by A-Sides
Also, for those of you who also listen to drum and bass, he will be dj’ing the Respect 10 year anniversary party in Los Angeles on March 10th! He’s legendary.
