As we hope you all know, the original mission of the WUE was to bring you a free outdoor haloween party featuring world class talent. This year, we are planning our third spooky bash, and hope you will join us.   This year, for the first time ever, WUE will be a campout event.  We will also be using a virigin location that we hope you will like.  As always, WUE will be in the mountains, but this time most of the driving will be on straight, paved roads.   We will have plenty of flat open space, and a river/lake to chill by.   We will (hopefully) be going all out with our crazy WUE decorations, which as you know tend to be a bit off the wall.  Also this year we will have a much larger sound system, courtesy of Neuroscience.  

Although we usually send out announcements the day before the party, we figured that we would give you all time to prepare adequately for this one.  So mark your calendars for Friday night October 18th.  

The spooky goblins and gouls chilling your soul for the eve will be:

Andy W (Viberation, SF)
D'John (WUE, Stockton)
DJ Pat (WUE, Fresno)
Dragn'fly (WUE, Sacramento)
Forest Green (Cloudfactory, SF)
KelleyGroove (WUE, Sacramento)
Mikey J (WUE, Sacramento)
Neuroopsyntist (Neuroscience, San Jose)
Trace Evans (WUE, San Jose)

As always, this party is NOT open to the public.  This has always been our way, but after having gear stolen and hearing reports of violence at the two parties we have had open to the public, it is now even more important.  If you are not on the WUE list already, you will need to get on it before attending the event.  Directions to the map point will only be sent out via email.  There will be no infoline.  Once at the map point your info will be checked.  If you are not on the mailing list, please write us at thewue@thewue.org and let us know that you want to be put on the list. When writing us, please let us know how you heard about the event. Keep in mind that you may be asked to justify to us why we should allow you to attend. This may be as simple as telling us who told you about the party or as complicated as having to write a short essay on why we should accept you into our family and what you will bring to the family.

To some this will sound elitist, however we feel that it is the best interest of our family to keep it tight knit. The few times we have eased these restrictions, we've had problems. This is all extra work for us that we certainly don't have time to do, but it is necessary to ensure that we maintain the level of quality that we are striving for.

Now that the formalities are out of the way, there isn't much left to share with you.  Those of you on the WUE list will receive an email with directions the morning of the event.  For those travelling from far off lands, plan on driving 45 to 90 minutes north of Sacramento, depending on traffic conditions.  Bring tents, sleeping bags, basketball rims, chocolate milk, and all that good stuff.  Dress warm. There won't be a bonfire.  We may bave barrel fires, but those only give off so much heat so prepare acordingly.  Costumes are encouraged (this is a haloween party afterall), but make sure you are warm.  A naughty nurse costume would certainly make all the DJs happy, but seeing you not dance because you're cold wouldn't make them happy.

Thats all we have for you now.  Stay turned as the event nears for more information.
