Here We Grow Again….

Due to the popular demand of our New Year’s Eve 2010 Mansion Party and my 28th Birthday Celebration, Russ Weiner’s Rockstar Energy Mansion will no longer be the host of our event.

Although we’re blessed to have such a problem of of having an event with this much anticipation, Russ Weiner (Owner of Rockstar Energy) and his employees have been contacted unfairly and with an overwhelming amount of phone calls and e-mails regarding New Year’s Eve.

Our event’s recent buzz, growing hype and misunderstandings have caused great concerns for Russ Weiner, the Rockstar Energy Brand, the Rockstar Energy Estate and it’s neighbors. We were forced to change the site of our event that we had previously promoted.

We have been fortunate enough to secure another location for our event. Moving forward, Russ Weiner, the Rockstar Energy Estate and/or the Rockstar Energy Brand will NOT be affiliated with our event. Russ Weiner’s Rockstar Energy Estate will not be having an event on New Year’s Eve of any kind.

On behalf of everyone involved in the Promotion & Marketing of this even, we would like to apologize to Russ Weiner, Rob Griffin, Tony Guilfoyle and Rockstar Energy for the attention we’ve caused them and their property. Although we wish we could have done more damage control prior to the cancelation of our event, we understand the concerns by all parties involved regarding our prior engagement. All parties have agreed to move in a different direction for this Special Event in order to produce the quality event we promised everyone who has purchased tickets.

With the past behind us, we’re extremely excited to be days away from our highly anticipated event and look forward to seeing everyone in attendance. It has truly been a work in progress. We hope to see you all there and if you can’t be a part of it, at least you’ll get to witness history!

Mass Appeal nor any other Promotional Group involved meant any harm in the Promotion or Marketing of this Event.

We’re less than two months from the end of the decade and up to now, the media has been suspiciously quiet about it. Maybe it’s going to be a surprise party, but it wouldn’t have been unreasonable to believe that the retrospective coverage would have been wall-to-wall for the entire second half of the year. There’s always December!

Whatever the case, Newsweek is kicking off their celebration of The Aughts and welcoming 2010 with a new website: The Decade In Rewind. It’s highly interactive, filled with top 10 lists and essays, and will doubtlessly be fleshed out at New Year’s Day grows ever closer.

The best part so far, though, is their 7-minute review of the decade in the style of Nine Minute Sopranos, all fast-talking and nostalgic, which was posted to the Newsweek Tumblr this morning. From Y2K to Obama, it’s all there.

Unfortunately, they’ve decided to make the clip un-embeddable, but the video transcends that obnoxious reality because it’s just that good. Watch it here.

Update: Newsweek was nice enough to pass on the video in shareable form. Check it out below:
