2007 Bloomington Blowout!

December 4th, 2007  |  Published in Uncategorized

THREE DJs, TWO NIGHTS, ONE REASON:
AWESOMENESS.

Since both most everyone in Bloomington and the Rad Summer crew are going to be gone around the end of the month, we’re getting rid of all our best jams early! This weekend’s got both an all ages and a 21+ party, so there’s plenty of fun for everyone..

Expect fire from resident DJ’s Action Jackson and Flufftronix, and some special dance party magic from Denver/LA’s Sara T!

ABOUT SARA T

Sara T. has djed with Grandmaster Flash, Girl Talk, Flosstradamus, Gogol Bordello, Kool Keith, Glass Candy, Valient Thorr, Xiu Xiu, Stereo Total, The Juan Maclean, Bang Gang, Drop the Lime and more. She has dj’ed in warehouses, museums, dive bars, backyards, house parties, rock clubs, clubby clubs, galleries, theaters, event centers, weddings, on the radio and is open to other stuff you might dream up. She’s been doin this since 1997.

“As a musician, a visual artist, and the co-owner of the popular boutique Chielle, Sara Thurston already has plenty on her plate. But her soul is best expressed through her performance as DJ Sara T. Long hailed as one of the best DJ’s in Denver, Thurston blasts out sets of electro-inflected shrapnel and bass heavy artillery, all delivered with verve, intellect, integrity, and abandon. If you’re looking for a party in a crate, Sara T. brings it.”-The Onion // Sept 7th, 2006 // by Jason Heller

OH AND.. THE PARTY @ SPACE 101 IS AN ALCOHOL-FREE PARTY. SORRY FOLX! GET YOUR DRANK ON BEFORE OR AFTER..
