Myself, my friends and my brothers all somehow fell into the warehouse party lifestyle. We threw lots of parties ourselves, but some of the coolest parties were the ones I went to in Deep Ellum in giant warehouses. My time was really just from 95 til 2001, so not as old school, but still lots of great memories. I was always the one who would decorate the places and design the flyers, etc. because I just loved the idea of setting the theme. Just wish I was actually able to make some good money doing it. In any case, that part of my life totally shaped the outcome of everything afterward. Glad to say it has lead me to a great creative career in multimedia design.

Greenville Ave. I found this blog as I Googled around trying to find
Les Wright, we were joined at the hip then and I want to reconnect.
Does anybody know how to contact him? Anyway, I always
worked the door with Fred Livingston, big guy, and I had absurd blond Texas hair, as was required at the time…. and I know I will have to come back three or four times as a leper just to make up for all the bad karma I accrued working the door there.

I am just thrilled I made it out alive and with no police record!
WHEW! So, if anyone knows where Les is…let me know! Kathy

freind Sam from Video Bar that I met thru Matt Bailey.

I remember the first time I went to Deep Ellum (2 weeks before my 17th birthday). After the initial shock and awe of the scene, all I could think was…look at all these kindred spirits. My first time in the blacklight room at Clearview, I walked in and saw the cubby holes stacked on the wall with arms and legs coming out of them. I freaking loved that place. I will always love Deep Ellum, we had some great times.

We had some great times though didn\’t we? The Prophet and Theatre Gallery, State Bar and Bar of Soap, Clearview. Gringos and Daylights! Oh Yeah those were amazing times.

I have trouble believing anybody who remembers Deep Ellum and Lower Greenville etc. from the early 80s still lives. Me, I didn\’t really understand that I was part of a scene until much later, long after it was history. Oh well, WALSTIB :-)

That is quite an impressive feat though. If only lemonade stands were that productive.

PARTY DUDE!

Or be free. And thats the joy in it.
