description:
One night. Several musical acts. A famous ballroom that wishes to remain anonymous due to the raucous behavior of some debutantes and some physical damage to the property by some musicians long thought dead. A night to remember most definitely. You didn't R.S.V.P., how sad for you. How very sad.
A few of the debutantes and their escorts, perhaps you are familiar with the term "Urban Haute Bourgeoisie," well that describes a few of us, weren't content with the tired songs usually played at these sorts of sorties, so we hijacked the playlist and got some great bands to crash and here it is. It was so ... very.
