On Saturday February 10, DJ Pete Pop and Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus were invited to DJ at a Secret House Party held at an undisclosed location in Newburgh, NY. Bella Bombora and Sheba Shake were invited to Go-Go dance. For all intents and purposes, this event did not happen. Even if it did, the Boogaloo Bag writers would not be at liberty to discuss it.

Suffice it to say, the venue was indeed in the basement of someone’s house somewhere in Newburgh, in an unassuming building that was easy to miss. Everyone in attendance was asked not to take photos or discuss the details with anyone outside of those who were there. However, the Boogaloo Bag writers have been assured that posting such information as what a gas it was would be fine. The party room was full of folks and the two DJs had them dancing the entire time, encouraged by the two Go-Go dancers. As usual, DJ Pete Pop played some fantastic records and The Boog tried to keep up! In order to secure the privacy of the event hosts, no other information may be disclosed at this time.
