Blocked Out\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Block Party in Legion Square happened on Friday for a long twelve hours. There were lots of vendors and performers. JC Security, the same security company that was there for the original cosplay costume event at The Hub, was there, and they were much more strict about doing their job this time. They were checking people at the entry whenever someone left and came back. Shots were still fired, though, this time, it was at the end of the contest after the winners were announced. The same mice never resolved their problems with a therapist because they fought over how the others were the problem as to why they lost. I guess you start \u201cleaking\u201d if you punch at or near a certain masked person. If any of the three mice attend another cosplay contest, please pick a non-mice costume.<\/p>\n\n\n

Besides that, I enjoyed the music. There were so many artists, including Piper Riggs, Lulu Moon, Jason Tanners, Velma Piper, Konrad Knives, Mayumi, Loomis, Bando, DJ Spooky, and Copperhead. The list is so long; I think this isn\u2019t even it. I can say that the special guest was BillyBoe Stone with Lil Pooh. Welcome back to town, BillyBoe Stone! As for the cosplay winners, Roxanne Ramirez and IX, dressed as Himiko and Deku from My Hero Academia, took home the $100,000 cash prize. I wonder how they\u2019re spending their winnings, considering the housing market will be opening again soon. Oh! As for the Pension Mania thing with the battle between the Winkler and Norman \u201cThe Cuh\u201d Wren, Norman told me he won.<\/p>\n\n\n

A Very Blue Day\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blue Bionic celebrated his birthday with a Bioniversary Bash at Stella Melon. DJ XR played music, and everyone got the chance to enjoy the new Blueberry Bioothie drink. Happy Birthday, Blue!<\/p>\n\n\n

Yay for Soir\u00e9e\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was a very long night. CLOUT Magazine had their Sapphire Soir\u00e9e event at the Sapphire Vineyard. There was a beautiful blue carpet for guests to take photos on. Weazel News also broadcasted the interviews that happened on the carpet as well as the musical performances inside. There were loads of people there, all dressed very nicely. The fashion we have here wouldn\u2019t be possible without the wonderful designers from Original Clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n

I remember hearing about how Remy Fitzgerald was styled by Tommy Grayson and Remy herself styled \u201cthe boyfriend,\u201d Jay Lamb. Becks Lawson\u2019s dress was made by Original Clothing and bejeweled by Remington. According to Maxine Finch, Becks looked like a million bucks; at least her dress does. If you haven\u2019t gotten yourself a copy of the new edition of CLOUT, get a copy for yourself and enjoy the hard work brought to you by Becks Lawson, Claire Halsey, and guest writer Roxanne Ramirez.<\/p>\n\n\n

As for performances, there were artists from Bohan, KOKORO, and Ronin Records. They all played a few songs each. Some even made announcements; more on that another time. You can enjoy the live broadcast here<\/a> if you missed it last night. Maxine and Rhylee did a great job with the interviews on the carpet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of Fashion\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Original Clothing is doing a weekly outfit contest this month. There\u2019s a theme for each of the four weeks. To enter, you just have to tweet out a photo using #OCCHALLENGE, and you\u2019ll have the chance to be featured on their website. You can have as many outfits as you\u2019d like, but one photo is good enough for each outfit. They\u2019re also offering photoshoots if you\u2019re interested.<\/p>\n\n\n

It\u2019s Bussin\u2019…<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Happening on a Thursday night this time, I rode the shuttle bus to the discreet location for The Bus Part 3. The pick-up location for The Bus was announced on Twitter less than an hour before the event started. As always, they made sure people could safely park their vehicles before getting on the bus, taking them to the music.<\/p>\n\n\n

We heard music from Vapors, Mando, Pax, Konrad Knives, Jason Tanners aka Squid Man, and Lucas White. I hope everyone that was there had a blast. I know some of us stayed till the very last moments. If you enjoy the things DJ Spooky Entertainment is doing, they\u2019ll be having their next Food Truck Friday towards the end of the month, so keep an eye out for a chance to eat and dance to music.<\/p>\n\n\n
