September 5 happened to be Mike, the AV Manager's birthday. For scheduling reasons, we opted to celebrate the night before. Well, the celebration really started at midnight, so maybe we had the days right after all. The AV Techs converted our prop/scenery storage locker into a party zone. I was actually quite impressed by everyone's effort. A little confused by the baby pink balloons... but you know what? It was fun.
Here's the gang... and girlfriends. The guys in the red shirts are from the party band. Eric is in blue - one of our stage hands. Doy, another stage hand is in teh white shirt all the way on the left, Jefferson - our lounge guitar/singer is giving the "ROCK" hand symbol, and Mike the birthday boy is the black guy in the back wearing a white shirt.
Eric in Blue, Ron in yellow. Ron's a lounge technician and Eric is a stage technician. And yes, everyone is filippino. Mabote.
Sam, our AVTS (sound engineer) and his girlfriend, Sara - who works in the online department helping guests with internet.
The birthday boy/DJ.
Bronson, one of our stage techs... and he's just awesome. Salamat.

A horrible misuse of production costumes that I am claiming sheer ignorance of.
Continued misuse.
This is Costas. He is here for 1 voyage to overhaul some of our technical issues. Primarily he is an audio equipment specialist, so he wanders around and fixes all of the speakers that do background music and stuff. But he's very handy and has helped us out a lot while he's been here so far.
From the Left: Ronald, Gomer's Girlfriend, Mike's wife, Costas, Mike, Singer from Party Band, Gomer (Lounge Tech).
At this point maybe we had had a bit too much to drink. Everyone likes seeing your boss drunk. So everyone must have had a good time since Mike and I both overdid it a little bit.
DJ Sam.
Gomer. Mike. Mike's Wife.
It was a great evening. It was nice to get to know everyone a little better and it was nice to get to spend time with people without having to be Production Manager Maddie, too.
