Early Saturday @ Club Marcella

Its kinda crappy out, so I’m suprised that so many are out before 1am
tonight. #snap

Club Marcella full of freaks

Ok then, what’s new really. The funny part is that a few of our eccentric
regulars showed up sans costume… and yet they still look scary

Snap! - the hetero crowd

We have a few wedding parties at Marcellas, but other then that its pretty dead. I also spot a few slightly uncomfortable straight bears with their girlfriends here. I can’t wait till they get drink and start acting all silly. Thanks to the Episcopollack for the #snap

Snap! - dum di dee dum…

Its sorta a dead night here in Marcella land. Hard to tell why but every so often a few things converge and you get a slow night.

On a positive note, we fixed why two of the lights were malfunctioning. Turns out the two lights at the end of the line had a bad DMX cable running between them. Easy swap and now there are 7 lights running. Just one more fixture needs to come back and we can swap out the piece o shit MLC-128 rig up the new MLC-16 we have just waiting in the back. Im getting arthritis in my fingers from tweaking the broken knobs on the 128. #snap

Snap! - Pooped

Actually im not so tired as I am hot. One of our AC units at club Marcella bit the dust and tonight was a hot and muggy night to begin with. Im covered in a thick layer of sweat and grime. Kinda sexy, no?

Snap! - Big Boy Toys

Marcella’s is finally getting around to replacing some of the lighting equipment that was either damaged from the Tralf flood a year ago, or just desperately in need of repair.

Today we have the Detonator, a Martin proprietary control board for the Martin 3000 strobes that we rehung. When flashed together, these suckers can white out the entire club. And give you a seizure. Sweet.

Snap! - Happy Pride!

The club marcella float is ready! Off to the circle!

Snap! The new bar at Marcellas

Heya Griff! Im at Club Marcella, setting up for the biggest weekend of the summer. We remodeled the whole bar for the White party, gone are the cubist shelves and cubbies, replaced with a more traditional and reflective tiered setup. We even picked up two flat panels and now the bar looks a bit like a less cramped Cathodes.

Buffafirst - Mishka RattleBear Cap

I’m horribly white, I don’t like baggy clothes, I refuse to wear dunks, and you will never see a swoosh anywhere near my body. That being said, I’ve also never owned a fitted in my life. However, seeing as Angel and I are swapping cultures more and more (he’s gone from puerto rican to european, and i’m getting slighty hood in the speech), I took him to New Era on his Birthday (think 20×2+1).

We poked around a bit, and Angel finally settled on a grey NY cap. I tried a few on myself, and was suprised to see a few labels i recognized gracing the walls next to the more urban mainstays. One of which was Mishka, a NY label that makes urban wear thats pretty bizarre and pretty rad.  I own a pink Mishka shirt called “crud white,” featuring a cracked out zombie snow white ripping the arm off of zombie prince charming. The cap had a familiar figure on it, the cover art death adder from the Megadeth album. I’m no metal fan but the cap was so characteristically me that i had to toss it in with Angels fitted.

So here I am below, making my debut as white hood… had so much fun at Marcella’s with it; Angel wasn’t recognized in his fitted and everyone thought we raided each others closets.

DJ Major Dad

• He’s gonna kill me for this, but since Lil Joe has been filling in on Friday at Bayou down on Chippewa, we get the pleasure of Richard, our club manager, spinning the night at Club Marcella. Not that Richard is a bad DJ, its that he is the manager and and can’t dedicate the whole night to the music. This makes three fridays in a row with out lil joe. Im hoping the dj he’s filling in for recovers from her surgery so he can come play some electro beats.>
