Here's the story: I'm at the Typhoon Lounge for happy hour one Friday and talking to one of my coworkers about Stereo. Suddenly, one of his friends whips around and says:
"You go to Stereo? How often?"Needless to say- that was how Turbo started going to Stereo on Saturdays and Fridays. (It nearly killed him that first month we hung out. Then Sabs showed me how to party 4 nights a week, then 5- then the blur.)
"Uh, yeah- once every two weeks, sometimes more..." I respond- trying to remember this guy's name...
"I've never seen you there...what night do you go?"
"Saturdays."
He says- "Ahhh- I go on Fridays, I'm heading there tonight if you want to meet some of my friends."
That's also the night I met Sabs. She was the first person Brian introduced me to. She hung out with us and introduced me to 100+ people; Stereo has been my house away from home ever since. She is a promoter and VIP Hostess and general PR machine for Stereo and some local DJs to boot. At one point last summer she was promoting for 4 nights out of the week. And she can dance like an angel- all night and all day, in serious stilettos if she wants.
And she is one of the warmest, brightest people I have met in the scene. This is an excerpt from an email she sent before my trip:
Just wanted to wish you a safe trip. Have a good time, and don`t miss us too much. I
will be sure to party like crazy while you`re gone. After all, someone is
going to have to pick up the slack that your absence will create. Although
being the holidays and all, I am sure that Turbo will be out in full force.
Hope you had a good time @ Pat Boogie. I`m really sorry I had to miss that,
but I`m kinda glad I did. I`m still tired and yucky feeling today. Oh well...
Guess I`m getting old. Having a real job sucks in some ways I tell you!!!
Anyway, keep us updated on how your vacation is going.
Sabs
PS- Sabs- Pat Boogie rocked but our Ferrari speed was a bit on the light-weight side and we were all home by 7 AM.
