Worlds Away

[Drunk Monk]

A new EDM fest at the Monterey Fairgrounds. Been a crazy ride to get here, negotiating with the promoters. We’re a furious 5 for Friday - the preparty. People paid a lot to be here tonight - VIP only. Twas fun - some big beats. Lots of supermodel types dancing. Fashionistas. We connected with the cops & security & the head promoter. Our main point of contact is taking good care of us. 

There’s a Ferris wheel, a fun house, a spin & barf and a drop & barf ride, a huge inflatable elephant & Cthulhu (yay tentacles!) a lot of Neft vodka.

I have an extra pass if anyone wants to come.

The afterparty is Laidback Luke, a Kung Fu DJ who we covered in KFTC. We’ve texted and might hook up before his set but he’s coming in from Sweden then headed to NY then back to SF - busy dude.

Had nachos at Denny’s just now. It was surprisingly satisfying.

Got a bottle of Jameson black (a gift I’m donating) and Martell 10 year bourbon. 

3 more vol gals tomorrow.

It’s trippy to have begun and ended my 2024 festival run here at Monterey. Also to be back so soon after jazz fest. 

Decided to camp tonight & tomorrow. Hope to make it back to yoga Sunday morn. 

There’s an AR app that’s fun. Eager to see this all in full gear tomorrow. 6K sold (holds 12k)
