The Do-Over

FOOOOOOOLLLLSSSSSS OOOOVVVVVEEEERRRRR!!! Wow!

No better way to forget your worries then to indulge in a Do-Over like the one we had this past Sunday. From Haycock’s tank top tropical boogie to Juan Maclean’s bouncy burger service throwdown to Craze’s super flashback to Nick Catchdubs’ slice of non-gongable classics to A-Trak’s sunglasses at night two plus hours of sweaty sexy and at times yachty jams… it was a intimate slice of heaven. Special thanks to Azul for holding down the hosting duties for a second week in a row. You never know what to expect and weeks like this reinforce the creed that you need to arrive early and stay late to get your fill.

Without going into extra specific details, we will let the photos, videos and DJ sets do the talking.

As always, The Boo-Over jumped off heavy this past Sunday as we closed out our regular Sunday series. Big thanks to everyone participating by dressing up, even though it was a day following Halloween. Some amazing costumes and amazing times made for a very memorable edition. Big big ups to all of the special guests who kept the soundtrack unique throughout the course of the day. A-Trak, Fashen, annual regular The Gaslamp Killer and a very special live performance from Very Be Careful took us across many moods and grooves.

Though we won’t be popping off regularly, there is no reason to be sad. In addition to a couple of special editions we will put together in the off-season, we will be working to make next season of The Do-Over even more special than the last. The current plan is to kick off our sixth year on Sunday May 16th, 2010.

Our next special edition is only three weeks away. Our third annual Left-Over is set to take place on Friday November 27th. Check back here for more details on that very very soon.

Finally, thanks to all those that have helped us make this season of The Do-Over the best yet – Darren, Dominique, Annie, all of Cranes bartenders, staff and security, Al Myers, the DJ’s and you!

It’s difficult to explain in words the levels of epic that we experienced this past Sunday at The Do-Over. Perhaps it was the smiling faces, the sweaty bodies or the sheer excitement preceeding the mystery guests (whom only Haycock, Strong and Blacc knew before opening time). Regardless, we can easily say that the energy that all experienced this day goes into the record books as the most anticipated Do-Over in our 5 years of existence, while the anticipation proved itself ultimately worthy to the challenge.

Following the usual warm-ups from Strong and Haycock, our favorite substitute host Azul stepped in and brought the levels up after too long of a hiatus from our backyard boogiedown. Next up, local hero and Do-Over fave Rareform, kept it going uphill as the place officially reached sardines. The first jaw dropping moment of the day was when our man Rich Medina stepped in the place and dropped his record bag behind the decks. His set did nothing short of amaze the people. As the bodies were locked in perma-groove following Little Ricky, we decided to redesign the Do-Over thermometer as it got even hotter. Originally we we agreed that we could state before, during or after the next guest, but something fell thru and things changed (good thing for everyone). Getting on with it, A-Trak smashed it out of the park like we knew he would, and even went on to say “Do Over was suuuuper fun, best party in LA”. Finally, lets not fail to mention one of our newest favorite DJ’s, DJ mOma from NYC doing it perfect on the late shift. Nobody wanted to leave, even though the bartender should have cut them all off around 6pm.

What’s it going to be this week? Only we know and if you arrive early, you will find out…
