We’ve finally finished the post processing from the anniversary show. Wow, just, wow. You are all beautiful, talented, wonderous creatures and we are so very proud to host your SteamClub.
To our wonderful patrons: We burble constantly about the effort you all go to but again you’ve raised the bar with your creativity, passion, talent and generally awesome selves. There are few things that give us more contentment than hearing happy laughter, excited questioning over the specifics of a particular costume piece or prop and the equally excited answers from those being questioned. And simply to see everyone enjoying a jolly good party. You’ve created a wonderful community. Thank you.
To our incomparable staff: Adrian, Brendan, Declan, cAt, Shannon, Jon, Charlie, Ellie, Eveeh, Josh, Chris, Prenna, Kerrie and Jen! This year has been full of trials and triumphs. With each situation you’ve risen to the challenge with professionalism, skill and humour. We do not have the words to describe how proud we are of you and to have you in this odd little family that’s sprung up. Thank you.
To Gordon and the 320 Crew: You’ve given us a home and taken care of us. You’ve made our staff and patrons happy and safe. Thank you, you’re all a joy to work with and we’re looking forward to spending indecent amounts of time at 320 in 2010.
To No Standing Cello Quartet: I think all we need to say is that you blew everyone away and that we were proud to be the stage for your first live gig. And what a hell of a debut.
To Opalesque: Rather marvellous is an understatement. Pleased as punch that you graced our stage and from the enthusiastic reaction from the crowd they were as well.
To Red Devotchkin: Red hot indeed. You broke many hearts and gained many fans. Thank you pretty lady, pleasure to have you.
To Elke & Ant of Phoenix Fire Tribe: You glorious, magical beings you. I believe you may have set a precedent for the first “live contact juggling to hard industrial music” show ever. Brilliant! Thank you so much for sharing your be-sparkled and talented selves with us.
To John Higgins, David Malki, Feybles.Nel & Von Borg Industries: Thank you so much for your time, talent, humour and glorious wares. We are so happy we could help get knowledge and shiney things out to the populace.
Joolie & Bam: Tea and ears. We love you for it and wouldn’t survive without it.
To anyone we’ve unwittingly neglected to mention: Please accep our apologies. You’re awesome.
Voodoo Lulu Alternative Clothing would also like to extend their heartfelt apologies for having to pull out at the last minute, but have no fear! PB and VL look forward to tantalising your fashion tastebuds in 2010.
So … thank you. An extraordinary 1st Anniversary for an extraordinary event.
Love,
Talisa & Kali
PB Management
