Cosmic Babies Free Open-Air Party - THIS FRIDAY July 5th!

Greetings fellow children of the cosmos,

This Friday Cosmic Babies invites you to come party in the warm summer air, bathed in the pale light of the moon...

A gathering where fellow psychedelics may partake in the peace of nature while enjoying deep and dark magikal sounds...

Location: precise directions TBA (proximate to the beach in downtown TO)

Time: 10pm - 10am

3kw of sound
Glowing trees
Blacklight deco
Moonlight

Expect to hear the grooviest in psychedelic sounds, ranging from progressive/minimal techno-trance to more aggressive full-power full-on trance...

Spread the Word!

location ...

i'll prolly hit this up if i can get my work shift switched.. which TO beach is this gonna be at .. ?

We'll be in a clearing about 100m back from the water on the east side of cherry beach. For those who don't know, this is located at the end of cherry st. (ie. the street The Docks is on)...follow cherry st. all the way to the end, then follow the gravel road on your left to its end, you'll then be in a parking lot and should be able to hear the music from there.

It's probably wise to bring some blankets to sit on, lots of water (the lake ain't too tasty), and maybe a sweater since it's supposed to cool off a bit on friday night (though there is a firepit). And since we're supplying the sounds, we ask that you guys maybe bring some fruit or something to share with a few people....of course you should also bring lots of good party spirit to infect everyone with!!

cheers

Do you need to book the area through parks and rec?? or do you go through the city?

Also how long are you allowed to keep the music on? past 2am?

Thanks,

itikia

the music will be going from about 10pm until 9 or 10am-ish....there's no one within ears distance to make noise complaints, at least that's been our experience with the last 3 parties we did there.

PSSSSSSSSSSYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYy...ya may come...is alcohol allowed?? any security around??

Posted by dEsidEL on Jul-04-2002 05:44:

Cherry Beach .. ? thatz not too TTC assessible is it .. ?? i figured u guys would have done it at Kew Beach, Ashbridges Bay or somewhere closer to Harborfront.. i guess itz those noise complaints eh .. ??

i'll still try to reach if i can hook up a ride there. not too inclined to drive esp. back up north where i live after an all nite party.

bummerz...

sorry

i don't really know how you'd get there by transit...If you're going with a few people you could take the subway to union or something and get a cab from there, that shouldn't be too expensive

Atman will also be joining us this evening. He'll be spinning some atmospheric, uplifting and crunchy german techno.

See you at the beach!

oh shit...what do u mean it got busted???what time??

Posted by dj pharmakon on Jul-08-2002 20:07:

silly cops

The po arrived just when the party spirit was climbing (around 1.30). I guess the security patrol in the area got spooked by the completely full parking lot (no joke!) and 350+ people hanging around. The po arrived in full force (10 or 12 of them) and then stood around sort of stupefied at the full-on hippy freak-out that was going on (it was an om renuion it seems). Anyhow they were pretty respectful to the people, though they managed to scare most of them away. I couldn't convince them to let us keep the music going...they wanted us to tear down the gear, so we started moving shit around and looking busy and finally they left (about 45 later)....then we swiftly put it all back up and carried on until about 8.00 when the next shift of po came around (music died for about 10 minutes, they left, music went back on). Yeah, so those 100 or so who had the patience to stick around had a pretty good time...even a bunch of hulla ravers turned up in the morning. I think next time we'll find a lower profile venue...stay tuned

p.s. don't forget to check out our bi-weekly event at Labyrinth Lounge (this friday), featuring psy-trance upstairs and melodic/uplifting trance downstairs...cover is $5

<-- Part of the hulla afterparty crew that showed up in the morning.

It was exactly what we needed after the dirty operahouse, I like that spot alot better than the actual beach part that most people use for the parties.

Respect to you guys for having the balls to turn the sound back on after being told to shut it down... hope I can make it out to the next party as well
