808SPEAKERBOX
I can’t believe how fast time has flown by, since the first conversation with Riana S. about 808SPEAKERBOX & mind boggling how much time, energy & sanity was involved throughout this entire process. I’m really glad 808SPEAKERBOX finally happened last night at Next Door & Thirtynine Hotel.
I wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to the following: Next Door & Thirtynine Hotel for letting Riana & myself hold 808SPEAKERBOX at your venues, all of our sponsors (Got Rice? Show, Workhouse, Hawaii Photo Rental, Yelp Hawaii, Freelance Clothing, SuperCW, Bad News Rap Dude, CONTRAST,, Hawaii Zulu Fresh Cafe & LOFT IN SPACE), all of the DJs, Emcees, Bands & Producers + videographers & photographers.

Also a big mahalo to everyone who supported 808SPEAKERBOX in any capacity, whether you promoted the event (via Facebook, Twitter or word-of-mouth), wrote a blog post, donated to our kickstarter, attended mini events leading up 808SPEAKERBOX &/or attended 808SPEAKERBOX.
I felt really bad, I wasn’t able to help as much as I wanted with things leading up to the event, since I JUST got a full-time job & I wasn’t able to stay the entire event (since I had work at my other job the next day) but looking through @808SPEAKERBOX’s Twitter feed it looks like the event was a huge success.
