The boat party last year was very cool - esp with the freak show. It was the one that I remember above all else cause of the venue and the stage show.

now this is your town, you're know more than I would about options so I'm just throwing out ideas here.

I'm not a big pot user - but I wonder if it would be possible to have a bar for smoking pot - would that be legal? no idea - as part of the party??? Just an idea that people would def talk about.....

Also being the home of the red light district and with what we do for a living- live sex acts would be cool - havnt' sceen that in a while actually at a show and I'm sure there are companies that could do it up right in an interesting way with fetish performers making it into a stag show of the like too.... and with this crowd possibly even having some people (the brave ones) partake in the show or get drawn into the show in some capisity. Make for great stories....

venue - no idea - I don't know the city well enough to suggest there - but something big enough as I personally HATE being cramped. Look for something cool and origional.



what i try to do when throwing an event is make sure there is somethign about it that people will look forward to and talk about afterwards. I'm all about the buzz around the event.


hope that helps?
Thanks dude.
Good feedback and thats what i'm looking for from other people.
