I was able to get some time and sit down and chat with DJ/Producer Paul Goodyear. This is one amazing guy, with a great story. Please link out to the article for Edge on the Net to read the interview.(http://www.edgeonthenet.com/index.php?id=128217). You can get out and hear him spin at RUB on New Year’s Eve at the BeatBox in San Francisco.

Throughout each year, the reviewers at the Juice Box use the “Water Bottle” rating system, with a 5 bottle rating being the best in class, and a noteworthy event. Parties that get a 5 bottle rating go into the 5 Bottle Hall of Fame. 2011 is about to be closed up for the record books and there were a significant number of new additions to the Hall of Fame and a few new events as well.
You may ask how the “Water Bottle” rating system works, so here is how it is applied:
This is the box the event is built in and it is often all about location, location, location.
This is what makes an event special, including lighting, decorations, and the landscaper the promoters creates – this is the magic of the event.
An obvious key to any good event, including any entertainment, acts or headliners, this is a key ingredient to success.
This factor is a bit more esoteric and relates to things that add pop to an event, a special value, something unique. Most of all this is the crowd or community attending the event.
This is the catch all for the rating system, including everything from how long does it take to get a drink at the bar, how clean and orderly the restrooms were, security process, coat check friendliness, and the overall presentation from entry to exit of an event.
Five elements – five bottles of water – one rating system that works for all parties!

It’s that time of year; time to go out and drink champagne, watch a balloon drop or two, catch some fireworks, and toast the old year away while ringing in the New Year.
There are so many parties, dances, home events, that it is easy to get lost in choosing what to do.
The Juice Box has posted many events on our calendar: http://www.juicyfruitjim.com/calendar/
Check out the events happening to see what is happening this year. Then get our your glitter, your sparkles and have a wonderful New Year’s Eve! Play safe and dance under the mirror ball and dance floor lights.
