Thank you EVERYONE for sharing your time, your knowledge, your art, your food, your energy, your music, your booty and your money to support our noble cause of bringing burnination and bad J-pop to the masses.

When we were planning this party, we aimed to raise between $1500 and $2000. We figured that the most we'd ever raise, in our wildest dreams if we *really* rocked it, was $3000.

I am ecstatic and thrilled and GIDDY to announce that we raised... *drumroll please*...

THREE THOUSAND AND FORTY EIGHT DOLLARS AND EIGHTY CENTS!
$3048.80! $3048.80!!!! MORE THAN OUR HIGHEST ESTIMATES!

The party itself pulled in almost $5000 in cash from bar, door and raffle. (Before subtracting expenses). 5Gs, baby!

And just as importantly, we had a goddamn BLAST doing it! I never imagined I would have that much fun at a party I was so stressed and anxious about. The fact that I was able to truly enjoy myself was due in large part to the *amazing* work everyone did to help make the party happen and happen LARGE!

Once again, THANK YOU for helping us fulfill our goal to make this project a reality.

Just to get a little nostalgic.. when I was sitting in my brother's living room in Boston last December, talking on AIM with Ian saying "Yeah, that's my next project, fire DDR!" I didn't even remotely imagine it would have such an awesome amount of support.

You are all very, very fucked up people who do very, very fucked up things and I respect and love the hell out of you for it.
