Friends of Curtis Present: Burning Solstinox, Mar. 5th, SomArts
Burn-ing Sol-stin-ox n: definition

1. The Saturday night halfway between burns, when we are equally distant from two burns and farthest away from any.
2. A holiday of hope, rebirth, love, and the creative thrill of radical participation, when we celebrate playa joys in default.
3. The night your friends from all around the bay will connect on March 5th 2005, at SomArts, 934 Brannan St, San Francisco, 8:00PM-4:20AM or ?

As your psyche switches from its vault of dusty memories to new visions of chaos, spend an outrageous evening in a burning village that will keep that rocking playa vibe alive for another six months. We do this all volunteer, totally non-commercial, and following the 10 Burning Man principles, so radically include yourself and participate! From theme camps to theatrics to art cars, bring it on just like last year, to an environment filled with lighting, art, and a magical trace of dust in the air.

additional information:

Coatcheck on premises, bring ID, 21+ event

SILENT AUCTION/RAFFLE: Bid on an hour of biplane stunt flying, the world's most awesome playa coat made custom for you, massage sessions, DJs at your own private party, playa wear, CDs by our DJs, playa DVD's, and many other one-of-a-kind gifts and art.

PARTICIPATE: This is a FUNdraiser with all proceeds going to the Friends of Curtis fund, which has grown to a couple hundred of us, connecting to save an awesome burning musician's life and voice from cancer www.friendsofcurtis.com. So besides dressing your best and brightest, bringing cash and sweet vibe, dancing till dawn....... participate! Create amazing experiences for yourself and others by donating to the auction, representing your art or theme camp, performing, staffing a one hour event shift, or whatever your wickedly creative mind can imagine! Naughty nurse shots. Lap dancing. Erotic Ice Bar compliments of Jocko and Captain Erotica. Massage. Kissing bandits. The connections you make at this event will change lives forever, including your own.
