I had a lot of fun and was amazed at the elaborate costuming I witnessed. The music was fierce upstairs and actually pleasant down (a beast, I am). Props to Makita.

I also want to say that the B&B crew did an outstanding job with the decor and that I deeply appreciate all the hard work that went into it. I was there from the begining and could tell that things were a little stressful at first. You guys deserve major fucking props! Thank you.

    Wah, mad props! It was a great time. Fun crowd, excellent music all around. I really enjoyed Jill Tracy's performance, I never get tired of watching her play the piano. I really admire that woman's talent. As always, the greatest thanks goes to Shatter and Megan, for successfully invoking this whole thing into existence for us once again.

    Shatter, Megan -

    I know you guys put yourselves through the wringer for this club - and I can't thank you enough. The amount of effort, originality and heart put into the event really shows... and I think you've created something unique and very cool.

    Thanks again!

    It was really, really lovely. Jill Tracy was wonderful, as always. And even understaffed at the beginning of the day, everything really came together.

    Thanks S&M (*chortle*)

      Shatter & Megan -

      Like many others here, I agree that you've created something very unique and cool here. I enjoyed the grace and beauty of it, unlike any party I've seen so far in SF.

      However, I wonder about the timing... With so many other things happening around the Halloween period, and the fact that this party has so much class to it, I wonder if it wouldn't be better placed, better attended, and perhaps more lucrative around the December period to take advantage of Dickens Faire synergy, which has a similar feel and perhaps could be cross-marketed. Also, there is often less party competition other than Dickens itself during this period, and people do want to get out and party during the stressful Christmas shopping season. As a plus, it might be more attractive and lucrative for your vendors during said gifting season.

      Just my $0.02 observations. Keep up the outstanding work!

    That segue to "Silence" after midnight was awesome. People were talking on the sidelines when the opening strains came on and then everybody automatically flooded the dance floor.
