The Start of the Word

Greetings and welcome to all,

After lots of planning and contemplating we have finally got the blog up and running. The function of this blog is to give a better look into the float on it community as well as to keep you informed on the latest news in your local music and art scenes. We will also be posting stories from people wide and abroad who have been on, going on, or never left tour along with helpful advice for those of you thinking about it.


A Look Into the Wooded Lot



The Wooded lot is one of the event venues that will be used during the out door season. It is Located in Wales near the Palmer border. Set off deep into the woods this is probably the most scheduled of the venues. Its primarily used for multiple day events such as festivals and camp outs. It will also host some art showings and auctions as well. As of right now we have nothing set yet but will soon be posting more.

The Wicker Man

The majority of our events include a bonfire of some kind but building the normal tepee to start it is a little bit too cliche. So we build a straw man usually between 3-5 feet in height and place an "interesting" picture on them(some of the ones we've used in the past are Michael Jackson, George Bush, and Henry Anslinger). This Practice has become kind of staple of what goes on. However by all means it is no where near as impressive as the Burning Man festival held out in Nevada.



Next weeks blog



Look at some new artists that will be making an appearance at future events, SWAP IT, Surprise interview as well as a look into the speakeasy and what exactly it is



See ya all next week
