We chatted a little bit after the fact. The big posters were snatched up before we could get to them (which was a little disappointing) but we got a couple smaller ones and a sticker. We chatted with Will, the Warp UK guy, who was really nice.

When i went up to see what was going on I quickly realized what was happening. The box of big posters appeared to be depleted and I stood around snagging a few stickers for a second before someone reached back into the box and another 10 or so posters appeared out of seemingly nowhere. There was a brief squabble for them and I was able to grab one, luckily. I have a sneaking suspicion many people snagged more than one large poster. What can you do. I also got handed a HUGE stack of stickers and was so overwhelmed that I was just handing mini-stacks out to people while imploring them to spread them around and give them out. I hope they did and everyone that wanted a sticker got one.

I couldn't tell if you (or whoever it was) were one of the organizers, or a guy who had grabbed a huge stack, so I sort of hesitantly asked if I could take one... I'm still trying to decide where to put the one I got...
...And yeah, I was chatting with Will, but I was still kind of giddy and I probably sounded like a total spaced-out weirdo, despite being totally sober. I heard someone mention something to him about the Coke sign (and he said something like "yeah, we thought about setting up under the Coke sign, but we thought this was better, etc"), but we looked on our way out and couldn't find it. Where was it?
It's nice to be able to chat about it (you know, forum chat) with other people who were there. Most of my friends are (apparently) not quite as excited about the new album as I am...

Honestly from what I've gathered/read/seen about the event, this is what music is about... Music has a really powerful sense of community imbued, and the listening party is a prime example of how it can really bring people together and pull them into an intense and probably awe-inspiring moment.

I noticed that you walked past the old swimming pools. I wonder if one of those is indeed the one that was used in the Reach For The Dead video. Has there been any confirmation from the director whether part of the video was shot in that area of California?Synthetrix wrote:OK here is one last listening party video.
BOC fans descend upon the box of free posters and stickers after the listening party.
I kept the video running as I walked back to my truck and the long drive back to L.A.
