Two of your favorite Ticket Booth DJs going off right here! D2 Denise Martin on the decks and skinnyFAT Edgar Blazona as the ticket slinging hype man.

Summer is going to start heating up any day now. Starting with lots of campouts leading up to that dusty finale of a week. See you all there.

In the next few months, we need to make a couple of big repairs lingering from last year and a few little improvements that have been bugging Ed. If you know him you know how he gets about the details, like easy close and lockable side doors (what he calls “abandon ship lockable side doors”) in the coming months.
And, of course, we will be nailing down our annual fundraiser date with The Office this summer any day now, so stay tuned for that.

Let's go!

This is not a donation ask.

We are NOT looking for people to simply fund our art.

What we are doing to help raise funds, is selling a few upholstery orders through my sofa company, MadeRightCA.com at 35% off. We can offer 2-3 of these heavily discounted orders (depending on timing and delivery needs) to help offset the cost of the Ticket Booth’s new front end which took a death blow out in the open playa and was dragged to its resting spot at The Office for the rest of the week.

Yes, these extra sales will certainly help The Ticket Booth. But it also creates a rare opportunity for someone who has wanted one of my MadeRight sofas or upholstered pieces and maybe could not quite swing it at full price or whatever sale price for that matter.

The details:
To get her ready for this summer’s events, pop ups, and renegades, we are offering a seriously discounted, any size custom upholstery order, built at our usual high quality level, and using the profits to help fund a new professionally designed and fabricated new front end with suspension.

The new setup is being built by Art Morrison (https://artmorrison.com). It will still raise and lower like the current one, but this version is engineered to actually handle the load without doing sketchy art car things.

So no, this is not a donation.
It is a chance to get a killer deal on a custom sofa or upholstered item(s) while also helping the Ticket Booth come back stronger, safer, and ready for summer.

Feel free to repost.

2 to 3 orders only, depending on delivery timing.
First come, first served.

Last of the “brackets” done tonight!!! Just in time for a load up thursday and headed to the big show. This is a folding spot light bracket ( we are finally able to get the up and running after a few years in the garage. These are for the roof so we can fold down the lights when traveling down the road so we dont exceed height and get them caught up in branches. Our goal is to put the booth away fully set up in its own garage. We have been working towards a 15 min offload and set up (off the playa. I

Hey all you Mutant Vehicle makers — stop by The Office of Permits and Regulations (on the open playa, 9:00 corridor in about halfway out to the man) and make sure you get a proper parking permit so you can park that car (bikes too) anywhere out on the open Playa. Saves all the hassle of getting towed and then dealing with the Org out at the D lot.

Plus stop at the Ticket Booth and you can grab the official BM drink tickets and skip the line passes (even O**y Dome!!) for most of your fav big camps. Thanks to some well funded Bay Area tech co (they dont wanna be named), we got a bunch of fresh drink tickets for the larger parties — and of course some of LA’s biggest sound and rave camps.

Lastly, special announcment: Playa Alchemist are back this year. In honor of them returning, we worked out 2 for 1 drinks. Just look for that big triangle shaped structure.

Same place, same time! We'll see you Thursday August 28th at The Office for an all-nighter filled with ass shaking music and the shenanigans you know and love. Is your permit visible? It better be.

Next up in our Meet the DJ series, we have D2, resident TicketBooth DJ. We asked D2, Denise Martin to share her best moment on the playa so far and here's what she had to say.

There are many but one that really sticks out is 2024’s burn. The Red Hot Beverly - The Fire "Extinguisher" had some technical difficulties and couldn’t make it out to support their homie’s art piece so we offered to bring the TicketBooth to them. Little did we know that this would be the start of something truly special. Ed and I rolled up to meet Dulce and Rachel who would lead us to the Love Shines Down art piece where Exoendo dropped a face melting set. Dulce introduced Ed and I to the entire squad and let me just say trying to remember one name late night on the playa is hard, try meeting the full crew at once!

We had to bring the TicketBooth back to The Office to entertain our thirsty patrons so we invited our new friends to come back with us. On the drive over, I opened the back door of the TicketBooth and told Ed to take a look; 20+ bikes following us (looked like a scene from E.T.) to The Office where we opened the decks up to the Red Hot Bev crew and holy s**t what a treat. We were all like kindergarteners after our first day of school meeting a new friend. One person was more giddy than the next and we dropped dirty breaks until the sun came up.

For those who don’t know The Red Hot Bev, it is the only art car I ever look for on the playa. They bring the nastiest breaks all the time. We’ve had several nights riding our bikes next to them just listening to music and stopping to dance when they stopped.

We all came home and found one another on socials and became fast friends doing parties, boarding, watching basketball and then some. While there are many amazing moments of music and art on the playa, my favorite is always connection and this was the start of a lifelong friendship with an army of great people. For that reason alone, this stands as my favorite playa moment…so far!
