The Mystic Beat Lounge knows how to throw a party. Me thinks they've been schooling for years out at Burning Man, and true to BM founder Larry Harvey's vision, they have taken that knowledge back to their community.
Lasers combined with computer animation projected on the wall of Grace Pavilion beckon party-goers in. The hanging light sculptures insid the pavilion somehow work...it can't be easy to transorm what looks a bit like an airplane hanger into a festive club scene, they're huge but so is the hall...the edges are lined with booths selling festival merchandise, food, art, and clothes... The carpet sculptures towards the back are a nice touch, as are the couches, and this area is full even before the entertainment starts.
Backstage is lined with buses, I see some familiar ones from back in the day of early Burning Man. The crew is friendly, they introduce themselves readily, and all seem to be having a great time whilst busily handling the show details.
I'm especially entertained watching this guy with an Emperial Cruiser jumpsuit take his first few turns on a segway. He picks up the skill pretty quickly, and his huge smile almost shines brighter than his pink hair. I can't see the wheels from where I am, so it looks like he's floating Jetson style...good fun indeed!
