RH Photos: RTC's Bday @ Lava Lounge
Man, first of all, thank you to everyone that came out to my birthday party at Lava Lounge. I was literally shocked when I walked in at 11:40 PM, and the place was packed. I saw a lot of familiar faces, faces I haven't seen in a minute, and a lot people I met for the first time that heard of the party from following RH and coming to my gigs. This was perhaps my best birthday party, and I think the best party of the young spring 2009. It's kind of blurry to me, but luckily my friend and RH partner, Virgil Solis, held it down on the photography tip, taking a ridiculous 150 pics. We cut it down to our favorites, please check them out below, and let us know if you see yourself. And special thanks to Jesse Lee of dubFrequency for helping me set everything up, Naledge, Really Doe, Phil G, Rude1, Metrognome, Word, Dave Jeff and Izzo for doing their thing as well so I could just get drunk and talk to girls...haha...

Bacardiru slid this my way earlier today. I'm not too familiar with Mr. Trife, but definitely an Astonish fan. This is something a little different than what I'm used to from him. Grab it below.
