The Anthem Ranch Pre Party

[CaliMag]

Anyone ever go to this? I have RSVP'd for the past two years and I never seem to be able to motivate to go. I was hoping someone could tell me about Anthem's annual event. Is it any good?

[CaliMag]

Obviously I am inspired to write this because they sent out a Save The Date email earlier today.

[captncrzy]

never heard of it; post the link if you can...

[SFChrissy]

it looks too superficial for me...I'd rather hang out at the pool of my strip motel while sucking down vodka cocktails and listening to my ipod...

yeah I got the email about it today as well, havn't gone yet because it's during the fest. however I usually arrive at the fest around 3pm anyway so I wouldnt be missing much. I always go to the filter preparty the night before the fest but would like to do anthem as well.

[CaliMag]

Ha - well I guess most people are similar - go to the FIlter Preparty and skip ANthem's.

here is a link BTW:

It does look a tad on the pretentious side, but as a native Southern Cailfornian I tend to not be bothered by such displays.

i would have gone last year with all the good DJs they had, but it was super far from the venue. i heard it went off though. if it was closer to the venue id hit it up from like 1-3 or or something. they moved it this year so maybe its closer. not sure though...

[SubBass49]

Yeah...last year's went off BIG TIME (I was RSVP'd but didn't go)...I saw pics. Seemed AWESOME. I'm gonna keep the option open for this year's though.

It was awesome! It will definitely be worth going especially if the early acts at coach are meh. Just be sure to have self restraint because we didn't end up getting to the fest until after 5 since we were having so much fun at the party! Its pretty much like the Filter party, except you add the sun, a pool, bikinis and awesome barbecue to the mix!

A Coachella party off-site during Coachella just doesn't appeal to me in the slightest, especially if it is a distance away.

I wish this was on Thursday vs. Saturday.

ANTHENMAGAZINE:

The Ranch RSVP closed early due to poachers. Hopefully everyone here was able to get on the list. There's always one asshole in the bunch.

Poachers closed the RSVP list? Damn. I didn't know those that illegally hunt & kill animals for trophy or food would have such an effect on a hipster party.

[Mickjagger00]

So I'm out of luck for filter and anthem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[EverGreen407]

I registered anyways and it accepted it. Hope it goes through!

I'm wondering if the Weasels have anything to do with it?

[mrdude5699]

What exactly does poaching mean in this context?

[gilley]

I guess it means spammers. I just saw this as well. Registered anyway and it went through. Of course it doesn't mean it accepted it but I'm going to try and still show up early and see what they say. I went last year and it was fun. Great Coachella pre-party and this year they have Aeroplane!!!!! Fucking sucks if I don't get in. Does anyone have any connections at Anthem?

[OnAJourney]

This blows! I registered anyway.

[gilley]

Um, and they have Aeroplane for those of you who think this one is going to suck... I am surprised they're not at Coachella.

[kampton]

As in years past, it will be the best party outside of the festival. Also, Aeroplane ARE confirmed to play the party...

[SubBass49]

Does anyone have any connections at Anthem?

Nothing close & personal, but a possible hookup that got me on last year's list. Not sure if it'll pay off this year though. Every organization that's known for throwing great parties along with Coachella has been cutting back big time this year. Where in past years I could easily be on at least 3 different party lists, this year it's hard to get on just one. Fuckin' economy.

[instinct]

lol. i thought this was about the rave known as "Anthems".

[gilley]

Oh, I'm in!!!!! Connections are great. haha.

[SubBass49]

Oh, I'm in!!!!! Connections are great. haha.

Did you find out direct from your connect, or was there some sort of auto-confirmation e-mail?

[hcr22]

Actually this year, the Anthem Party is right now the street from Coachella and it's only 1 day versus the 3 days that they had last year. It also starts @ 11am. Here is the other thing, if you know someone who got the 2nd Anthem email..they can add three names.

[SubBass49]

Well damn...I never got the 2nd e-mail. Oh well...fuck it.

[oliwooly]

any other ways to get one's name on the list?! i went last year and it was absolutely rotten good fun, not to be missed.

any help would be GREATLY appreciated my darlings
