BURNING CHOCOLATE

The giddy motion of the whirling mill,
In fumes of burning chocolate shall glow,
And tremble at the sea that froths below!" "

This was an awesome party!
Derby and SOT were fantastic as usual. The space was amazing, industrial, gritty. The owners opened the roof to us at 6 a.m. and we went up to watch the sun rise.
This was probably the biggest and most amazing local Burning Man party we have had in Chicago.
Kudos to Boperella, Matt and Simmydan for the fantastic job they did pulling this one off.
