Here are the photos of our wildly successful space party. Final tallies are still being made, but we raised over $1,000.00 for Computers 4 Kids!
We all had a blast and hope you guys did too! Here are some photos — to help remind you just how much fun you really had. Please send us your photos and we will post them as well.
Thanks for making the night such a hit!

What, no dancing on bar pics?
I don’t recognize half those people. Were they there? Was I drunk or something?
Hello, everyone. I appreciate you coming out to support cVillain, 106.1, and CSSC. Thanks for all the charities that showed up!
Also, let us Spicy Bear peoples know what you think we can do better in the future. Were we too expensive, too cheap, do we need more booze specials, etc etc?
Cheers!
@1 : I heard the camera batteries died. I’m not complaining.
@2 : seriously. but that star trek girl seems to have had a good time.
@3: Let me start by saying the party rocked, and I somehow missed the space gu-splosion.
I do think the cost kept a lot of people from going. While we may be the coolest people in Cville, that isn’t enough to convince people to pay $20. Either the price needs to be lower, or we need to add something of value that justifies the cost. There always need to be more booze specials, but I’m an alcophile.
Booze specials never hurt! I know I tried a couple of the offered drinks. The “Alien” was awesome. Who doesn’t love a blue drink at a space party?
It might be a good idea not to have the party during big american holiday weekends.
I had already made plans to leave before this party happened. It looks like a good time was had- but what about parlie, shen, and the exploding space goo. Inquiring Cvillians would like to know more
@7: if you still need more after all the exposition, you might need to just get out of the house.
@8 I was out of state and while I nurse my hangover I would like to hear a story before I lay my head down for a little nap
@9: Parlie was sitting by me and had some bendy glowstick thing. I took it and bent it into a penis shape because I am juvenile. Bending it so much caused some of the glowing goo to drip out and it happened to land on my skirt. I screamed in horror because I would have to spend the rest of the party with phosphorescent green dots decorating my va jay jay. The end.
here is the story in it’s most accurate and complete version. enjoy that nap!

other things happened, too, not just space gu, which was funny and happened while it was still light outside. But other amazing things, like mylar skirts being ripped off on the dance floor. And moonwalking across the bar. And free small servings of mac and cheese.
I do wish the parties were cheaper, though. I don’t mind the charity aspect, and x lounge did make it worth admission with costumes and specials, but the price is still just a big hurdle at the beginning.
omfg, there was a REAL ASTRONAUT there? how cool is that?!
I agree. No holiday weekend and cheaper. We have actually discussed these things already and they are being considered for the next shindig. Thanks so much guys! Keep the comments coming.
There’s something about Summer nights and Friday. I think a party thrown on a Friday night during the summer will draw a great audience because people are already out for Fridays after *five* and are looking for a plan thereafter.
Therefore using this advantage to attract the drunken party goers will increase the numbers, both in people and drinking, increasing the cVillain population.
/just a thought.
There was dancing on the bar?! Hmm
PS-The dead battery is a very sore subject-not one you want to touch. Grrr
I just added 2 more pictures.
Ha! Still NO proof I was ever dancing on a bar.
I’m working on my mental picture printer now and will likely have a Mario Paint image of Tues/Nannigans et al. on the bar shortly. You all will have peach skin.
just home from my out-of-town weekend activities and wanted to send virtual high-fives for the C4K haul y’all pulled in. it’s a great cause and it looks as though great fun was had by all - kudos to the space people! (ps - the make-up is AWESOME!)
at some point last night, a few villains were talking and maybe we’d like to have an old fashioned meet up, ala Zinc or Crush. Casual and without pressure. perhaps a very low admission to insure drink specials or something, but hopefully free.
@21: I like it.
21: I’m working on just such a meet-up at The Local. Will that work? Poll to pick the date….soon.
@23 august 15th!
24: Yeah, it’ll be sometime in June. Probably on a Tuesday (the day of the week, not the commenter).
But let us hush on speculation! Post and poll forthcoming as soon as The Local confirms my proposed possible dates.
yay!!
Boo! I liked it better when it was ON me.
@28 How many cvillains could have a meet up on Tuesday?
I don’t know. Let’s try it and find out. It could be just like the tootsie pop commercial.
A tootsie pop commercial. Are you sure about that? Could be painful if scowly has his way
Good point. Maybe we all just play twister instead.
Also Lu Sid has an obsession with the Electric Slide. And Shen likes Slip ‘n’ Slides. Kyle likes to win at War. To really spice it up echo claims to have pick-up sticks or monkeys in a barrel - I don’t remember which - he may hate me now.
Monkeys in a barrel. How could I ever hate you Tuesday?
Would this be a post South Street party or a during South Street party? Either way, I’m there.
