Da General SPARKLE ALERT!

Another Legendary Night!


Now that I am finally rested up after a spectacular night on Saturday, I just want to thank everyone who made the Join The Sparkle Army party so magical.

First, I must thank the dashing MC of the night, Monster Ronson, who throws his friendship, heart, soul and wallet into this party and without him none of this would be possible.

Also big round of thank yous to:

– all of our musical guests:  DJ Juan of a Kind for playing the grooves to get the party started right, The Supermen Lovers for an amazing live disco show and to Massimiliano Pagliara for delivering an extra special galactic set a that rocked our sparkling world!

– our special rooms of fun: Isa who ran the green screen room so that our Soldiers could dance in outer space (can’t wait to see the video!).  Fenia for the sparkle-tastic makeup and Shauna for the glittering tattoos!

– dancing sensation Jackee Word for showing us all how to move in the fiercest way possible!

– our devoted Sparkle Soldiers who helped us build the most fantastical spaceship deco ever: Diane, Lucy, Julian, Rebi, Ding Dong, Cedric, Shambuh, Sheldon, Marcie, Bambi, Maya & Uri.

– sound & lighting team Rebi & Adrian for making the this very important part of the night so spectacular

– to all the Ronsons’ team who worked so hard before, during and after the party. They keep the drinks flowing, the smiles coming and the sparkles sparkling.. you are all truly the best there is!

Most important I’d like to thank all of our guests because it’s your sparkling energy that made this night so successful and yes, legendary.  Many, Many thanks & love!

By the way, we are still gathering photos to put on the website so if you have any you want to share, please let us know!

SPARKLE ARMY 2012!

My good friend Monster Ronson and I get so excited while putting together another fabulous Join The Sparkle Army party that sometimes we make a little video so that everyone else can get excited too.  This sparkling advertisement turned out to be such a delightful disco commercial for our night of dazzling on the dance floor that it was the obvious choice for today’s Sparkle Video.  It features Berlin’s own nightlife superstars Joost & Jackee Word in sparkling outfits, gobs of glitter from outer space and yours truly, Da General.  Enjoy Soldiers- and I hope to see you all on November 10!

Join the Sparkle Army: NOVEMBER 10, 2012!

It’s that time again Soldiers!  In one month I’ll be packing up my sequins, getting on a jet plane and heading straight to Berlin for my favorite night of the year…

Join The Sparkle Army on November 10, 2012 at Monster Ronson’s in fabulous Friedrichshain!

You are all cordially invited to pledge your devotion to the Word of Glitter along with me, Da General, and the dashing Master of Ceremonies, Monster Ronson himself.  Together we’ll be hosting another night of dazzling on the dance floor under disco balls and laser beams and it’s sure to be an extra sparkling night!  The evening kicks off with Berlin’s own Juan of a Kind who’s sure to put you in a party state of mind and special guest and dancing sensation,Jackee Word, is going to show us all how to get down tonight!   A LIVE performance from the The Supermen Lovers is going to blow your mind!  They’re taking their private spaceship all the way the way from Galaxy Francais (that’s France!) just to make you shake your booty so hard, it just might fall off.  But don’t let it- because you’re gonna need it for when DJ Massimiliano Pagliara takes over the decks and spins you into a dancing vortex with an ultra galactic disco set!  All of the most dazzling things in one place, for just one night…  and it’s going to be LEGENDARY!

Oh and did I mention that you should wear sparkles?  Not only because it’s approved, but because we’ll also be giving one lucky soldier a 50 Euro bar tab prize for being the sparkliest spaced out sparkle slut in the joint.  Plus, those who glitter get in free before midnight so be sure to sparkle up so you can party down…  with all of us!

It all happens on that magical date 10-11-12 at 23 Uhr …..  That’s November 10, 2012 at 11pm for my fellow non- europeans!

I can’t wait to see you!

The Multinauts

A while back Ronson went out and hired real live video specialists to create a dazzling promo for one of our parties.  They used all kinds of tricks to make him look like he was zipping around in outer space and it was pretty darn cool.  Well, check out The Multinauts who have totally raised the bar by making a Sci-Fi series of galactic proportion.  Aside from the usual things you’d expect from a show about space, they also wisely included a lot of special elements to make this series such a smashing success.  Cocktail parties, gobs of lasers, hot electro music and bitchy fetish queens are some of the fabulous things in their universe and I want more so I’m hoping they add a new episode soon.  Perhaps I should suggest they film one at the next Join the Sparkle Army party… but it will be called “The Multi-Sparkle-nauts”!

JOIN THE SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!

I’m just getting back in the swing of the Big Apple after having the most wonderful time in Berlin.  With so many great people to hang out with and so many fun parties to go to, a girl really gets to show off her jewel encrusted Press-On-Nails!  In keeping with my most recent mission abroad, today’s Sparkle Video is from those kawaii pandas from Cholorphorm TV, Joost and Laura.  Once again, they’ve captured the glittering spirit of what Join the Sparkle Army means and if i might add, they only go to the coolest and most fabulous parties so it’s always a gorgeous compliment to have them at ours.

If you were there- relive the moment.  If you weren’t- I hope you’ll make it next time!

Giving Thanks for Berlin and Sparkles

 

Apologies for not following up on last Saturday’s party until now… but after all, I am on vacation Soldiers! Besides, with today being Thanksgiving Day, it seemed like the perfect time to mention the things and people that made this Join The Sparkle Army party so dazzlingly successful:

– First and foremost, I’d like give thanks to my dear friend Ronson whom without him, none of this would be possible and an extra special thank you for the light-up dancefloor.  That’s right Soldiers!  My dream finally came true, which just goes to show that you should never give up asking for the things you want in life (so keep on doing it until you get it!).

– I’d like to give thanks for ITALOPORNO who killed the stage with an onslaught of live rocking music, sparkling outfits and gobs of glitter!  They are a band that defines the word “PARTY”!

– I’d like to give thanks for our incredible DJ’s!  For Snax for turning it proper and getting the party started.  For Sare Havlicek who came all the way from Slovenia to deliver galactic disco sounds that were truly out of this world.  For The Shredder for an amazing set that would make any righteous alien dance all night and also for creating original music just for the party and therefore earning a special Sparkle Army Salute!

– I’d like to give thanks for Joey Hansom who composed background music that was fabulously dramatic and perfect for me, Da General, to read my opening poem.

– I’d like to give thanks for Denise Redder, our Sparkle Army photographer for not only taking fantastic portraits and party photos, but for going above and beyond the call of duty to help us get the ne laser background created.

– I’d like to give thanks for Stevie Hanley and Jackee Word, our delightfully delicious dancers who worked those glow sticks along with everything else they have in the hottest way possible.

– I’d like to give thanks for the Ronson’s staff who are the most enthusiastic Sparkle Soldiers one could ask for.  They have embraced this event and given so much time and positive energy to the cause.  Special mention to Fenia and Jule for the amazing job glitterizing every inch of the club and also to the incredibly talented Bambi for taking sparkling into the highest of art forms.

– I’d like to give thanks for Adrian and Rebi who were a kick-ass team handling all aspects of sound and lighting which, as you can imagine, is an extremely big job for this party.   I’d also like to say that Rebi made a special trip from Switzerland to report for duty and we are touched and thankful for her devotion!

Most importantly, I would like to thank all the beautiful and fabulous Sparkle Soldiers in Berlin who came to Join The Sparkle Army.  This party was successful because of all of you and your sparkling energy- you have a truly made me the happiest girl in the universe!

IT’S SPARKLE VIDEO DAY FROM BERLIN!

Greetings from Berlin Soldiers!

As you can imagine, it’s been a quite a busy week sparkling up and getting ready for tomorrow night, which by the way, is going to be ultra fabulous!   While many of you have joined the Sparkle Army before, today’s Sparkle Video is to show the gobs of new recruits what’s in store for the evening.  This exciting segment was taped at last year’s party by our friends at Clorophorm TV and I think it truly captures the spirit.   I can’t wait to see you all tomorrow night at Monster Ronson’s where legends will be made.

FUNK YEAH! IT’S SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!

Today’s Sparkle Video from Rokotto rocks my whole entire being.  Aside from being one of the most well outfitted bands to grace a stage, they sing the only gospel that matters in this world.   Listening to the golden sequined singer preach that “There is just one way that people come together- it’s in the music that we play”  has me screaming “AMEN!”.   In fact, this sparkle-tastic performance of “Funk Theory” makes me not only proud to be a believer in the Word of Glitter, but also in the magical power of music and dance and, most importantly,  a believer that there are more of us than them- but ain’t that what funk is all about?

…. and by the way if I might add… Join The Sparkle Army on November 19, 2011 at Monster Ronson’s where we will praise, praise, praise!

Join The Sparkle Army: November 19, 2011

 

ATTENTION SOLDIERS!

Mark your calendars and Join The Sparkle Army on November 19, 2011 at Monster Ronson’s in Berlin for another night of dancing and fabulosity under disco balls and laser beams!

Get out your sparkling best outfit to experience a dazzling live performance by Berlin’s own ITALOPORNO, an electro-disco-funk collective who’s motto is “Glitter! Soul! Sex! Love!”– how perfectly perfect!   Cosmic artist Sare Havlicek is beaming up all the way from Slovenia for a special DJ Set, his first ever in Berlin and we are so excited to spin in his orbit of galactic disco sounds!  WARNING: Be prepared for close encounters of the alien kind when Berlin’s own man of mystery and intrigue, The Shredder, steps in on the decks to make sure you keep dancing until it’s safe to come out… or your outfit comes off!

The night will also feature a “Tribute to Space Cuffs” , a contest honoring the most beloved disco fashion accessory of Spaced Out Sparkle Soldiers everywhere!   Wear your most special wrist creations and you might win a bar tab prize.  I’ve said before and I’ll say it again- SPACE CUFFS: get some!
Also returning by popular demand, an all new and improved Laser Background to capture your most sparkling moments!

Special guest SNAX will also be on board to get you in the dancing mood and everyone’s favorite space cadet, Monster Ronson, will be manning Station Control.  Of course, I’ll be there to share my glitter, my dance moves and my love for all my Sparkle Soldiers on our night together where we celebrate More is More!

(oh..and did I mention to wear sparkles because entrance is free before midnight for those who glitter!)

See you there.. and that’s an order!
