Is that a ROCKET in your Pocket?
Posted 10-Jan-2012 to Dance PartiesRocket Collective presents ROCKET, a new monthly dance experience launching on January 28, 2012. Featuring the DJ crew of Brian Maier, Trevor Sigler, David Sternesky, and Mat dos Santos, this talented team will bring a new event to life at the Rickshaw Stop.
A portion of the proceeds from each ROCKET will be donated to queer camps attending the annual Burning Man arts festival in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert. January’s beneficiary is Camp Astropups, which is home base for many San Franciscan Burners including Rocket Collective’s own Mat dos Santos and Brian Maier.
Each ROCKET event will feature:
- aesthetic integration with that month’s beneficiary Burning Man camp
- a spectrum of dance music from Rocket Collective DJs that includes modern tech and
- deep house, classic Chicago and acid house, and more
- guerrilla-style surprise performances, blended seamlessly into the DJ sets, from some of San Francisco’s most exciting queer artists
- an inclusive atmosphere that brings a taste of Burning Man’s nightlife, community, and
- radical creativity to San Francisco
Rocket Collective has a Facebook page where they share news about ROCKET parties and other events of interest to the alternative dance community. Rocket Collective also launched a series of free promotional mixes on Soundcloud that showcase the musical vibe patrons can expect to hear at the party.
Tickets for Rocket are available via Rickshaw Stop. Don’t miss the debut of this event which is sure to ignite the senses of all in attendance.
