CAYA - Let The Folly Burn, Ye Children of Chaos 🔥 🔥 🔥

Dear Lost Souls!
The Folly

Tipping our hats to all of our Haberdite Burners enjoying the chaos out on Playa in Black Rock City, tonight at The Haberdashery we will feature a livestream of the midnight torching of The FollyThe Follyholds a special place in our hearts, and we salute the months of tremendous effort, expense, and love that went into its conception and execution. It is always extraordinary to see how the power of the ephemeral can manifest in an art project of this scale . . . one that ultimately exists for less than a week . . . and we thank its creators for their hard work and dedication!

Yes, my Pesky PyromaniacsCocktail Houris on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm . . . and we will feature the live stream from Black Rock City through to The Folly burn at midnight. As always, please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary destiny . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA - Hot as a Pistol and Headed for the Burn 🔥 🔥 🔥

Dear Lost Souls!

It's that time of year again . . . when all the loose nuts and marbles roll gayly into the Nevada desert to populate ephemeral Black Rock City . . . and to engage in every imaginable form of radical self expression and delicious debauchery. Come help us send off Brother Anto as he christens the Dough Dough mobile . . . sailing off into deep playa to careen across the dark empty expanse on his quest to disseminate the gospel of the perfect pizza. 'Praise be his name. Tonight we will be toasting Burners everywhere with best wishes for a safe and successful adventure, as well as celebrating the end of another scorching week on our fragile little blue marble.

Yes, my Populist PyromaniacsCocktail Houris on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. As always, please feel free to zip by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary pilgrimage . . . or to linger transcendentally.

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA - A Sanctuary from our Digital Detritus

Dear Lost Souls,


As another week in the proverbial coal mines draws to its inevitable conclusion, and the sneaker-bound drones of our post modern digital dystopia emerge bleary eyed from their interminable assembly lines of first world binary detritus, we look ahead with tearful promise at the latent potential of a midsummer weekend . . . brimming with a sumptuous smorgasbord of Playa fundraisers, pastoral excursion, birthday celebrations, and oases of quiet repose. And behold! . . . just there, beyond the crest of aspiration's foothills, lies the prospect of a Friday night cocktail at The Haberdashery; a sanctuary from the chaos of our time . . . gently shaken, lovingly stirred, and subtly seasoned with eclectic starlight; to be sipped beneath the dappled shade and shadow of low expectations at The Last Resort . . . Come As You Are.

Yes, my Denizens of Dystopia, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please join us as we humbly offer you a handcrafted manifestation of your ephemeral whims*. As always, please feel free to shhwing by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary destiny . . . or to linger indefinitely.
