First Place: The table Waldo was shot over
Second Place: Dr. Jacoby
Third Place: Josie Packard and her fish in the percolator
We just got the pictures back from Alison Narro from the photobooth at the party, and there are some absolutely great shots. The above picture is of the costume contest winners (and just let me say here that it was VERY hard to choose, there were so many great costumes) and I am going to put some of our favourite shots of other people that dressed up after the jump. We should be getting some party shots in the next couple of days, and you can see all of the photobooth pictures at our flickr page.

We just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone that came out and partied with us last night, it went so wonderfully, better than we ever could have hoped for.
We especially want to thank Shangri-La and all of their staff for having us, Vulcan Video, End of an Ear and The Onion for the prizes and all the help, the Roadhouse band for playing so amazingly, Alison Narro for taking pictures, and everyone who dressed up for looking so amazing.
Keep an eye on this space and we should have the pictures up for you guys soon. Thanks so much to everyone again.
xx,

Some friends of ours have some really great podcasts that are currently live, so I thought I would link them here.
- Kon Karne and The Bear is our very own Kon Karne (Dave) and our friend Butcher Bear doing a podcast preview of their monthly night held at Rio Rita here in Austin. RECSPEC is also doing the design for the series – you can view the poster for the first night here.
- Rapid Composure Series 2009 is the new podcast from SLC based Eucci, and features near daily snippets of ambient noise and music for as-yet-unmade films. Really haunting and beautiful.
- 6th Floor Sessions is our good friend Zombie-J from San Francisco, dropping all sorts of bass-heavy dubstep-ish goodness.
- Scrapecast is the podcast of Austin-based Aphid and his other alter egos. Nice crunchy in your face electronic experimental madness.
- The 4am is writer Warren Ellis‘ collection of new found music sent to him directly by musicians and artists. If you have stuff to send him, you should. From his own words, The 4am “shits fireworks and baby heads.” Hell yes.
I’m sure I’m forgetting some of you, so e-mail us if you want your name included on this list. We’re music obsessed and love to spread your love.
Redline Hookas. While walking around earlier, we saw these little guys and had to snap a photo. Edited to add: these guys have since been painted over.
Our party, Fire Walk With Me, is exactly two weeks away, so we thought we’d try to give you a little inspiration as to who you should dress up as if you’re unsure. We’ve made it so you can be any character from any Lynch movie, so the possibilities are really endless. Here’s some ideas for your perusal & ways to get the look, first from Twin Peaks:
Coming bludgeoned, wrapped in plastic, or dead, is always an easy route
What you need to get The Look: plastic, a psychotic family member
