Investors of False Profit, LLC - considered a national security threat by the US Treasury for their cutting-edge economic theories - will be reaping huge Dividends this Thursday at the Poleng Lounge. This is the Poleng Lounge's first encounter with False Profit, LLC and its investor base. Officials at the Treasury had planned to send in the National Guard until they realized there were none left to send. Rumor is that Dr. Toast, holding a doctorate in Downtempo, has recently been in the lab isolating several new isotopes of bass. You might want to look into that. |

Go to hear rhymes, metaphors, and beaucoup de silliness. (EK) |

Record label head honcho Michael Mayer, and recording artist extraordinaire Gui Boratto are in the house to preach the sermon that is Kompakt. Mistakenly thought of as a cold and mechanical genre, Kompakt has helped break this false stereotype by bringing emotion, melody and slickness back to techno. Showing them how we do it in SF are Dirtybird and Kontrol residents going back to back. Go ahead, make it a 4-day Memorial Day weekend! (DJ) |

design at FIT. The textiles are on the side now because Knuckles
has become one of the most in-demand DJs in the world. Clubs worldwide
sell out with people who want to see and feel this master at work.
