Also, thanks to Poleng for hosting, Poketo for providing their clever, arty wallets for door prizes, and the DJs who volunteered their time: ModestMark, pantyRobber, Politik, Steveda5eight, Proof, and Franchise. Props to Angelo, who got on the turntables when we needed an impromptu DJ to get the party started.

Here’s a couple photos below. But you can see much more at the following sites:

This photo set was taken by Jay Jao and posted at his site MochaMonkey.

Hyphen staffers Khang Tran and John Liau also shot some photos, which are posted here.
