I just wanted to say again that all the thanks that is necessary is due to you. The Kiss and Tell Martell Party was literally one of
the most mind inspiring, language celebrating and body soul uplifting convocations that I have been to in a very long time.
I had a wonderful time and I am always so lucky and honored that I managed to stumble into such a fantastic Technicolor
wonderland tunnel where everything is more beautiful than the dreary separated black and white of the regular world.
I am continually amazed at not only the diversity of events that you do, but the consistent impeccable quality of them.

Please please please thank all the djs for me specially. I can honestly say that I got my serious groove thing off. I thought
that I was literally going to blast off when they threw down that remix of That Girl...by Stevie Wonder. It was yet another
delicious simmering savory human roux made with love by you and I was so glad that I got a chance to taste it. Really, you rule.
We are so lucky to have you here!

My guest and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The hospitality was warm, the Martell Cognac gifts were fabulous, the music was great, and the
poetry was superlative! You did a steller job. Thank you.

Just wanted to say, the setting was great and the atmosphere was even greater. It was a bit chilly in the bldg, but after it started
filling up and it did quickly it got warmer. I got there at 9pm with a friend, but we could not stay late because I rode with her, so needless
to say at 10:45pm we left and I did not get a chance to kiss and tell. I hope to be at another event of yours soon. I know the poetry was
awesome because Bonnie, Cocktails, Abyss, John Goode and some of my other poet friends were there and the few I mentioned are AWESOME!!!!
The Martell Cognac Cosmo was great and the gift bag was even better. Your greeters were very professional and beautiful I might add.
One day, we will meet, but in the meantime, much success to HUSHBOX and peace.

It was a wondrous event! Does the Tapestry Nightclub always play that kind of music on Saturdays or was it just for your event that you supplied the club with your own DJs? I would like to go back to that club or attend another one of your events.
