Mash up your New Year! Bootie celebrates New Year's Eve, mashup-style! And because this is sure to be an
epic night, we are
only selling
advance tickets! In order to make sure your NYE is the best it can be, with everyone getting in quickly and easily -- and to keep things from being overcrowded -- there will be NO tickets available at the door.
An extremely limited number of "early bird" tickets will be available through Tue, Dec 15 (or until those sell out). The price goes up after that, and goes up again after Mon, Dec 28, so get your tickets early!
To help you celebrate the New Year,
Smash-Up Derby, Bootie's award-winning house band, will be doing a special "Greatest Hits" set, counting down to midnight and ringing in 2010 with a pirate balloon drop, champagne toast, and a mashed-up version of "Auld Lang Syne!" Resident DJs Adrian, Mysterious D, and
Dada will be playing the best mashups from the past year, and
The Indra's Go-Go Dancers will help you party like it's a brand-new decade... because it is!
Upstairs in the Fair Use Lounge guest DJs
Freddy, King of Pants (from Seattle's FrankenBoot) and
Jells Mayhem (from LA's The Illuminoids) will be spinning a mix of mashups, electro remixes, and bootlegs. There will be many other surprises as well, including
free "Soak Up Your Drunk" hors d'oerves served at 2 AM, and and we'll be giving away 500 "Best of Bootie 2009" CDs throughout the night!
Launched in 2003 in San Francisco by DJs Adrian & the Mysterious D, Bootie was the first club night in the United States dedicated solely to the burgeoning artform of the bootleg mashup -- and is now the biggest mashup event in the world, with monthly parties in nine cities on three continents. Mixing and matching every conceivable musical genre, era, and style into one big dance party where everyone feels welcome, Bootie provides the soundtrack for the A.D.D. generation -- with free mashup CDs given away like candy!
Bootie's DJs and house band Smash-Up Derby, as well as guest mashup DJs from around the world, keep your brain guessing and body dancing with creative song combinations, celebrating -- and satirizing -- the many different forms of music. Bootie also presents the infamous Midnight Mashup Show, featuring local drag and burlesque performers. Bootie showcases the best mashup productions from around the globe... because one song at a time just isn't enough!
