Bay Area Friends: I wish I could be there with you! Halloween: Deeps FlashDance Please forward and repost. HALLOWEEN FLASHDANCE: YEAR FIVE Thursday, Oct 31st: 8PM INTRO: CALLING ALL SF HALLOWEEN LOVERS! Ok folks - its ON! Halloween FlashDance: Year 5! I cant wait to see you in your Halloween costumes! And if you dont have a costume. Well, make one. Sheet-with-eye-holes is better than being a barnacle with no costume :-) A couple of years ago, StevensINK Productions made this kick-ass video of the proceedings... BASICS: WHERE: Secret! We keep it a loosely guarded secret so we dont get shut down. The location will be the same place weve done it the last few years! If you dont know where the pier is, send me an email, ask nicely, and tell me what youre going to dress up as & Ill send you the location. Ill also send it out via Twitter on Thursday! (PLEASE SIGN UP FOR THE TWITTER FEED) If you are a law enforcement official, please read my note at the end before requesting the location. WHEN: THUSDAY, OCT. 31th at 8:00 PM HOW: WEAR A COSTUME! Just being in costume will make it more of a fun thing and less of a gawker thing... Barnacles are no fun! BE POSITIVE AND NICE TO EVERYONE, including the people who arent being positive, nice or in costume :-) LEAVE NO TRACE! Clean up any trash you see while you are there and especially when you leave! ITS NOT ABOUT DRINKING: Sure, have a drink if you want! But make sure drinking isnt the focus of the night. Too many great SF events have had problems when drunk comes before FUN - we like FUN & hope you do to! GET UPDATES ON YOUR PHONE: Send the SMS/txt follow deepfunstuff to 40404 from your phone, to get updates on your phone the night of. See details below in the SMS section. DETAILS: MISSION: A lot of us are heartbroken that Halloween in the Castro was killed off. Sure, there were things that sucked about it (too many drunk idiots, too many gawkers/barnacles and not as many awesome costumes, and yes too much violence), but the way to deal with these problems was to fix them and work to improve the situation, NOT KILL IT. Halloween in the Castro was inspiring, hysterical, brilliant and essential too. For years and years it was one of the highlights of being a San Franciscan.... So what to do? Lets TAKE IT BACK AND FIX IT AT THE SAME TIME!!!! TAKE IT BACK: Lets make a NEW San Francisco Halloween scene! FIX IT: Lets make it better - promote a FUN, ZANY, COSTUMED vibe without the violently-drunken idiots. Also, lets not trash this beautiful city that we love - lets leave it at LEAST as clean as we found it! WEBSITES: Facebook: facebook/flashdancesf This page: flashdance.org/hw/Halloween2013.html A NOTE FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT: Dear Po-Po. Hey look, were not trying to outsmart you (youll find us if you want to, we know that), were not trying to make your lives difficult (being a cop is plenty tough), and we know youre not anti-fun (youre just doing your jobs as youre told,) I hope you bear all that in mind, and allow us our simple fun on Halloween. Were just trying to enjoy life, you know? Yeah, I knew you did. Anyway,, I appreciate your taking the time to read this, however you decide to handle the situation. Thanks - Deep For Extra Credit: GIVE ME MUSIC SUGGESTIONS: For the last few FDs, Ive asked people to give me their requests and Id try to work some in. It has worked SUPER WELL. So lets keep doing it. Give me more suggestions! Im looking for things that I dont already play that GET A LOT OF PEOPLE HAPPY AND DANCING - email me your ideas, links from the iTunes store, places I can download etc. NOTE: These need to be high quality song fiiles (so no 128Kbps MP3s - 160 at least! 192 preferred!.
