Sonoma County Deputies Arrest 2, Seize 40, Pills Of Suspected Fentanyl Two people were arrested in Sonoma County over the weekend on multiple drug charges after deputies said they seized tens of thousands of suspected fentanyl pills.

First, we brought Markie over with his box of records, and he played at Colossus for resident Jerry Bonham. Jeno was playing records, Markie was playing records, Thomas was playing records and although Garth was doing a regular job at that time, we soon talked him out of that.

JAS: What is the relation between Wicked, the early Acid House scene, and the counterculture both contemporary and earlier, i. They were growing their hair out, wearing baggy flared jeans and funky tops and what not. But personally, I'd always had an interest in the psychedelia scene. They were teachers and guides for us and I drew a lot from those relationships. We were now looking back at 3 or 4 decades of alternative culture, which meant many valuable lessons had been learned on how to live, work and create outside of the mainstream, lessons that some of us would now incorporate into what we were doing, whether it was Whoosh or Tonka, or Wicked.

So I see Wicked as being very much a continuation of those lessons, for example, our interest in free party ethos, or our very DIY approach. I see Wicked as being just one branch on the tree of alternative culture.

We contributed. Jeno : Intention - to do something more than just throw a party. To celebrate yes, but also to do so as a way of living, rather than just as a form of entertainment. To be successful, without making it all about the money.

Perhaps humbly inspiring them to go off and create their own art, their own music, their own way of celebrating. But it was all about love essentially, it was about propagation of unconditional love as the medium for sharing the experience of being here, now, alive, conscious and aware.

Essentially it was a modern replication of the ancient magical arts. A shamanistic application of music and dance used to create a physically tangible psychedelic experience. Garth : Heady. Everyone seemed to be high all the time. Love was everywhere. It was everywhere. Alan : It was just full on gay disco. It was great. It was brilliant. Loved it. Just being around other people who are sexually comfortable with their identity, being around human beings who are comfortable with who they are.

I guess that was one of the underlying important things that I stumbled across, being around a lot of other people who are comfortable with their own sexual identity is a wonderful thing.

Jeno : That first year in San Francisco, I clearly recall the feeling that we could do anything we wanted, that anything was possible.

Even when it was still only a core of several dozens of us, rocking all the parties with our unique musical approach and our cant-stop-wont-stop attitude. And I met a lot of wonderful like-minded people back then. It was amazing while it lasted. Over time things started to feel less spontaneous, less innovative, more formulated, especially once the rave promoters moved in, repackaging the good vibes into superficial slogans for large warehouses full of impressionable kids.

Which I care to mention only because the Wicked full moon parties became a great foil to that kind of influence. Garth : Well I had a nice stereo system and boom boxes as far back as I was always the kid with the latest tunes recorded off the radio.

Until I could afford to buy records. When I was at University in London, my friends pressured me into playing a set down at the Student Union bar which was always hopping on the weekend.

I remember being bloody terrified but somehow managed to play a few hip-hop and Rare Groove records without clearing the place out.

It was ' I didn't go near a DJ booth until moving to San Francisco when the same thing happened again. My friends demanded that I play my house and disco records for them over a proper club system so they could get their groove on. The year was '91 and the first party I played lasted ten years. It was called Come Unity. At its peak, kids would pack Folsom on a Wednesday night until 4 am. Wicked and our Full Moon Beach Parties started the same year. We just turned Time flies.

JAS: How would you describe the style s of music you spin? Has it changed? Garth : I like to think it's timeless dance music. I tend to avoid the bells and whistles and over produced stuff in favor of a solid groove. I mix all my influences together. A typical set might include acid house, deep techno, psyche rock, cosmic disco but I've been known to pay funk, dub reggae, Balearic oddities and even the odd country record when the mood takes me.

Music is music. JAS: How do you feel that spinning vinyl vs. DJing has become so laughably artless with the rise of the over-hyped stadium guys. At this point, the digital realm is just not for me.
