   In the last +/- 2 years, Griet has changed the way how i look at parties and events. See, the type of events i always went to were rock and metal gigs in these seedy, smoke filled, extremely hot, little clubs where you mosh and get looked at funny because youre not wearing a death metal shirt. In 2010 i started working occasionally at hotbox(r.i.p) where i saw a lot of griet events take place. Which were mostly the dogbox parties. And it opened my eyes to dance music! I fell in love with dj’s like double adapter, haezer, moejoe, doctor khumalo, etc. It was great to be at parties where you werent judged for not wearing a band shirt and where it was clearly visible that everyone was having a great time because of all the smiles! I eventually ONLY attended hotbox parties and griet events(still mostly do) and left those gloomy, depressing metal days behind! And dont party also got me to attend my very first H2O party! Which was without a doubt, my party of the year so far (i hope this event will take its place of being the party of the year, but im sure it will) so you guys (griet and dont party) changed my life! No, actually saved my life from being an epic bore. The 25th november is also a good day to party for me as it is the day where i took my first sip of alcohol and it is my best friends bday (it was at his birthday party where i discovered the mystical powers of drinking) and to go to this event would be a great way to say thanks to him for all the years of friendship and driving me home every time i get really shitfaced! Which is every time i party…
   Ps: i still have a griet sticker behind my door which has a dog that looks like lucy, the legendary hotbox dog. It reminds me of all the awesome parties i had at hotbox!

   SOMETHING NICE
   …I’ve really been racking my brain for cool, witty things to say for these tickets but I just can’t come up with anything good, sigh…
   All I can say is there’s no party like a Griet party and Don’t Party party!!!

   It was a time of post-modernist existential ennui and deteriorating social ties. No longer was it a time of house parties and social gatherings where the citizens of planet Earth could pursue connections with interesting and strange folk, exchanging tales of the high seas and adventures in the turbulent tides of life…No, this new era dawning upon a generation of music-loving clowns and conversationalists left them lacking. They desired a place in which to release the anxieties and tensions of the quotidian or engage in one-night friendships and form lasting ones, but alas! Alack! Oh woe! The people, half numbed by their lack of anything satisfyingly novel to engage with, withdrew to the cramped indoor retreats where, restricted, they choked down liquid to the background squeak and drone emanating from tiny amps in hazy corners. This was for them a welcome distraction, but nothing more. Then, one day, a ray of hope dawned upon the proverbial horizon. A hero was born! From that time onwards, our protagonist fought against the ingrained habit of attending inadequate locales and events of meagre proportions. This champion of entertainment, this conquistador of ennui, our defender of the people’s desires, this vanquisher of hopelessness, bore forth events of legendary proportions, emancipating the previously destitute youth from what had seemed an inevitable fate of caged in passions and locked-down cheer. Yes, it is indeed a revelling tale of despair and unshackling, the salvation of an entire generation (or two), a story which continues to write itself as we speak…

   Tell you something nice, something real nice huh? Hmmm… Well often times the truth is stranger than fiction so although I could probably write a much more intriguing tale full of fantastical events and major twist plots in lieu of…oh wait.
   I was first led into the light atop a rooftop where crazed Italians boarded their equipment while revellers made merry and I have never looked back. Thank you, for providing such paradoxical entertainment – where the chilled and the frenzied collide, where people cross genre boundaries and unite in the name of music and good fun – and, though you might not have changed the world, you’ve changed mine *cue violin music*. Happy birthday Griet, and shots for the breath of fresh air and change in scenery that the social scene was in most desperate need of.

    I always thought that pretoria was a foreign land where the unfortunate used stay! But due to the fact that Dont party have their fingers dabbled in this event, and Griet (Pretoria born an bread) have thrown some Dope ass parties in JHB, has given me a reason to Pretoria not being that bad and a force to be reckoned with. If Dont Party can do it, I sure as hell can. And what other for me to get the opportunity to Go explore the night life with some free shitt from Dont Party & Griet! And break it down to F.O.O.L , Dirty Loud! As well as the local acts such as LIVER!
    I finish exams on Friday so what other way begin the holidays with a DP & Griet EVENT

    Another Great event by Griet!!

    I never want these parties to stop coming to P-Town, and as Johan said: “if you keep coming to these parties, we’ll make it happen”

    So.. a free ticket would lead to more great Griet parties in P-Town!!
