(Playlist within!) Hi, friends! Well, the 36th anniversary party for Nocturna this past Saturday was A BLAST!!!! Full house, great vibes, and I lost my voice (surely the sign of a good party!) 😁 Hopefully my voice will be back (enough) for my weekly Twitch live stream tomorrow night. Anyway, I am so grateful to have so many people- literal generations- attend Nocturna. It's a lot of work and over the years there have been both ups and downs, but it's always been my passion and I can't possibly imagine my life being anything else. Thanks so much to everyone who attends, to the friends who help decorate/set up (this time it was Alicia, Justina, Nathan, Angelica, Marty, and Kat!) to all at our host venue Metro, to GlitterGuts and our vendors, and of course, to William for the vast amount of support & help in so many aspects of Nocturna. Here's to 36 more years of Nocturna (why not?!) Pic of me post-Nocturna so def a little blurry/bleary-eyed!
🖤😊🎶 💜
