Show Notes
Well what can I say? This year was nucking futs. Easily a couple hundred people. At 3:00am, there were buses coming from downtown, completely full of people in costume heading to "that villa party." Was it out of hand? I can't decide that for everyone. Some people loved it, others thought it was way too crowded. At the peak, the dance floor was strictly "do the minnow" room only. Amazingly no cops were called. They stopped by once on a routine drive by to note, "that's way too many people on the roof." A valid point. I've got no idea what the load capacity of the villa roof is, and I'm not interested in pushing it to failure.
As usual, a couple "aspiring DJs"/drunken assholes kept fucking with the DJ gear. You can hear one of them banging away on the piano, and being ejected at exactly 45:10 in the mix. The other guy, after his second warning, said "I do it because I love you man." Fair enough. Roommates Brad and Greg helped with DJing, and DJ GoreMay. Brad and GoreMay bookend this year's mix.
Thanks to everyone who attended, for the good times, great costumes, and good spirits. As always.

All tracks taken from a wonderful mixtape by Jay Buckwold. Jay is a long time member of the Pacific Bluegrass and Heritage Society — probably the founder or at least the president at some point. He also ran the bluegrass camp in Sorrento for many years.
Gettin' ol' timey. The very best in bluegrass, newgrass, whograss?, yougrass, country, country-swing, gospel, and whatever else tickles the fickle Mr. Picklesworth. A new initiative from the mighty La Villa Studios and the artist formerly known as AK45.
Back from the dead. Five (five!) years later we're back. Still at the Villa, still Radio, still La. Join Ard, Dylan, Mayumi, and special guest Andy Day who makes us all look bad by talking smarter, harder, and with a proper accent. Everything you didn't want to know about building and more!
