partyvolcano@yahoo.com
This happens sometimes: Party Volcano spits out its weekly email only to find a bunch of events in the inbox an hour later that should have been included . This time we are posting an updated list including new events like Eric Yates' 21st Birthday party, Seattle Advanced Kitesurf Beach Party, Special Animated Film Series, and "Burning Board".
I am sure that as soon as I am sending out this email I will get an exciting invitation for let's say, a Glowing Piano Party or even better: a Chainsaw Pumpkin Carving Get Together. By the way, did we miss Seattle's Annual Red Dress Party 2002?

Manslaughter @ Vital 5.
Vital 5 Productions proudly presents "Manslaughter" - a degenerate play written and directed by Greg Lundgren:
a Hooker
a Billionaire
Crack Cocaine
a Candy Bar and
a 9mm Handgun
Wanna Date?
Party Volcano talked to Greg Lundgren (the guy who runs V5) about it and it promises to be hyper-violent--with lots of crack smoking, gun play, prostitutes. Yeah!
Greg was very upfront about warning it might not be everyone's cup of tea (eg. a scene where dudes in a car try to sexually assault the hooker, Sugar; and Sugar winds up shooting them all--which, of course, is only justice served, but you get the idea, regarding it being uber-violent.)
The physical set-up of the play is a cool idea: the audience will be INSIDE Vital 5, looking out the front window and the play will take place OUTSIDE, literally on the street. The actors will be mic'd up with wireless microphones that will be patched into speakers in V5, so the audience will be able to hear the actors. Once the actors move off the "set"--eg. the hooker gets in a car with a trick and they drive out of view, the sound over the spearkers will switch to pre-recordded dialogue, thus, also, allowing the opportunity for realistic sound effects such as semi-auto gunfire.
The fact that the play takes place OUTSIDE means, of course, that it's entirely possible that random passerbys will happen into the scenes on the street and think that the actress standing on the corner really is a hooker....
Vital 5, 2200 Westlake Avenue, Seattle (on the Southeast corner of Denny and Westlake Ave.). The doors open at 7:00 and the show starts at 8:00. Be warned: Graphic violence, drug use and sexual content may be offensive to some audience members.
"San Francisco Found Object Festival" @ 964 Natoma (SFO).
If you happen to be in San Francisco don't miss the San Francisco Found Object Festival created by Matt Davignon (Tape Recorder, Field Effects).
For two nights, Bay Area musicians spontaneously create music using objects brought in by you, the audience! Please bring one or more objects (just about anything around the house or outside) to be used as sound sources by the artists. Of course, you'll get them back at the end of each night...
NOTE: Please do NOT bring hazardous or radioactive materials, live animals, or firearms... thanks!
I guess you can bring those to Vital 5's Manslaughter show...
964 Natoma, San Francisco. Between Mission and Howard, 10th and 11th street, south of market. A few blocks from Civic Center BART, or the corner of Market & Van Ness. Bike parking inside!
Starts at 8pm, $6-10 sliding, no one turned away for lack of funds.

Eric Yates' 21st Birthday party.
Party Volcano has received this friendly invitation to this unknown young gentleman's birthday party. It says: "Bring a friend!" - As of today Friday 9/20 Party Volcano has 291 friends. So I guess we all can go:

1215 NE 55th St, just off of 55th and Brooklyn in the University district.

Seattle Advanced Kitesurf Beach Party @ Golden Gardens
Looks like the whether will be good on Saturday. But even if it won't be perfect you should go to Golden Gardens and chekc out the second Seattle advanced kitesurf event and beach party, which is brought to you by Advance Kitesurf and Seattle Kiteboarding Center:
Uniting Souls’ artist community and DJs’ ( http://www.unitingsouls.com )
will be spinning bumpin tunes at Golden Gardens for their Golden Gardens
beach cleanup party.
This will be our end of summer beach party and kitesurf season kickoff
event, and an opportunity for local Seattle kitesurfers to bust out some of
those new moves they learned this summer. We’ll have a just for fun
expression session contest too. BEST WIPEOUT takes home a trophy!
Saturday's weather forecast is looking great for a beach party. Sunny skies,
lotsa wind and big air for the local kitesurf scene…. It will be warm, but
we suggest bringing warm clothes (beach towels and drinks too?) to break the windchill.
Vamos a la playa!
WHERE: North end of Golden Gardens Park, Seattle
WHEN: noon-sundown - Saturday, September 21st, 2002
*** Please keep a safe distance from kitesurfers launching and landing their kites at the north end of Golden Gardens park.

Return of the Thing Equinox Celebration @ Greenlake Masonic Center.
Party Volcano reader Yuri is co-hosting an Autumnal Equinox event in the greenlake area on the 21st it will feature feature a "ritual" play written by Sir Aleister Crowley called "The Rite of Mercury":
Please come Masked to honour the God of Intelligence, Trickery and Splendour! Feel free to bring something for the altar that you would like charged with Mercurial energy (an orange candle- a stick of incense a hat- are all good ideas for the altar) and you can take them home to use as you see fit. There will be Raffles with prizes donated by local and guest Vendors, Hebrew Bingo before and after the Rite as well as a Deacon Flogging booth (two whips for a buck!). Come to this rare event and bring a friend. Enjoy this play written by the naughtiest of Victorians!
I wish I could go back to that great Wig and Skirt party earlier this year and recharge my voodoo doll with that Mullet Shrine's unique energy. I really need a hair cut.
Greenlake Masonic Center 307 NE Maple Leaf Place, 7PM, $7.
Tickets are 7 dollars advance from Edge of the Circle Books (206)PAN-1999 and 10 dollars day of show- with a three dollar discount day of show if you bring 2 canned food items for North West Harvest. Doors open at 7, show begins at 8 with vendors and bingo till midnight.

Baroness Jzeannette @ Odd Duck Studio.
I met Jeannette at Butler's Homo Garden show few months ago. She apparently used to live in Germany for a while and was telling some very funny stories. She will play at the Seattle Fringe Festival. Here is the press release:
Baroness Jzeannette (think: Marlene Dietrich meets General Patton and
won't take any scheisse weak love!) answers your questions on Love &
Life. Social critique in fishnets, cabaret style. Verbal jousting mit
oomphf!
ODD DUCK STUDIO (Stage 5), 1214 Tenth Ave. E. (Capitol Hill, one block off Broadway at Union), $10, 7:15PM.

Sunday 9/22.
Special Animated Film Series @ CoCA.
CoCA is showing animated films from around the world. Seattle Weekly wrote:
Tuesday features Don Hertzfldt's very funny Oscar-nominated Rejected and the excellent Sub...Other titles in the program show a nicely hybrid mix of styles, as CGI, line art, stop-motion, and manipulated photos meld into a worthy showcase of new-school animation.
I am sure there will be a cover charge. Unfortunately CoCA is too unorganized and they forgot to mention it. Notice that Tuesday's program also features live performances by Plan B.
CoCA, 1420 11th Ave, between Pike and Union
Sunday shows: September 22 (All Ages) 2 and 4 p.m.
Tuesday show: September 24 (Adults Only) 8:30 p.m.
Wednesday 9/25.
"Burning Board" @Golden Gardens.
Seattle Kitesurfing Association (SKA) presents "Burning Board": Sacrifice to the Wind Gods - kitesurfing season opener beach party/bbq.
Some folks were stoked about kitesurfing since the Advance Space Virgin kitesurf party last June. Burning Board will be an occasion to schmooze'n booze with more kitesurf geeks, maybe even scam a free lesson. This could be fun, but it might be lame too, so don't get too excited.
North end of Golden Gardens Park, 6-9pm, free.
*** Please keep a safe distance from kitesurfers launching and landing their kites at the north end of Golden Gardens park.
Slender Means Society's Audio Hors d'Oeuvres @ SAW
The press release says:
The Blow's EP release and Hors d'Oeuvre party! The whole gang will be there— The Blow (performing their new opera, Blue Sky vs. Night Sky, an elaborately orchestrated collection that extends The Blow’s focus beyond that of all previous incarnations.) Karl Blau (in particular the rare city appearance of Karl Blau, Anacortes native, the well-kept secret totem pole who's music runs deep and seeps through as a muse to many of the people who will be playing at the show [he is also a heavy influence on the Microphones, who sadly won't be at the show])
Calvin Johnson, Little Wings, Wolf Colonel, Yume Bitsu, The Badger King, Thanksgiving, Swastika Girls ...a bunch of the folks from the K family, playing alongside their best friends and those who give them heavy influence and inspiration.
Secluded Alley Works, 113 12th Ave, 6:30pm. All Ages. $6, or $4 if accompanied with a plate of hors d'oeuvres.
