The Do-Over

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!

What’cha Wanna Do? Do-Over!

Whew. We did it! Somehow we survived another six months of getting done-over and what a past six months it has been. Season Four of The Do-Over was indeed a special one. One quick look at our mystery guests from this year and it could easily be mistaken for a lineup at Coachella (and for free!?!). It’s hard to believe we’ve been so fortunate to have such an amazing cast of artists/dj’s bless us at The Do-Over, but that is a testament to you, our loyal attendees and supporters so for that, we thank you. The Do-Over will always be a party for the people and by the people. Special thanks goes out to Peanut Butter Wolf, J.Rocc, Rhettmatic, Dam-Funk, C-Minus, House Shoes, Induce, Mixmaster Noah and Jedi for getting down at our annual Boo-Over Extravaganza. What a way to end an amazing year. Costumes were plentiful, spirits were high, and good times were had by all. On that note, it’s been real, it’s been fun, and shit, it’s been real fun, but it’s time for Aloe/Chris/Jamie to catch up on some much needed sleep. So we will see you six months from now, unless you suffer from withdrawals and would like to get done-over at one of our special one-off editions. Stay tuned for details.

“This may be the happiest, hoppiest dance party in town, and though it’s done till next summer, at least there’s Do dudes Chris Haycock, Aloe Blacc and Jamie Strong’s annual post-Thanksgiving one-off, The Left Over, to look forward to on Nov. 28. After what we saw Sunday, only a jive turkey would miss it.”
