A taste of what it’s like

Last night I agreed to help run the door for a friend of mine, Tristan Taormino (NWS), who was having a book signing party. OMG! She had well over 400 people who came to see her and another author she was doing the party with. The club was moderately small, as most of them are in NYC and I was so glad I was at the door and not back in the crowded club space. But it definately gave me an idea of what a party is like. Made me tired and I wasn’t even the one hob-knobing with people.

She had some people from the media who came and other VIP like people. She gave out goodie bags and raffled off some prizes. She had quite a few helpers from her friends and such and it makes me think about if I ever have one what work it will be. LOL It was good experience to have actually.

It was a three hour party, and while pretty much anyone was allowed to come, she had us check off names so she could have a decent accounting of how many people came. The raffle was held 30 mins from the end so that kept most people hanging around to possibly buy something. EVERYONE wanted a gift bag but we only gave out tickets for them to the first 200 people. So many people tried to scam them. LOL Makes me wonder what kind of stuff I could put in a goodie bag if I gave them out. Her’s was a sex/relationship book so lots of the goodies in the bag had something to do with that. No wonder everyone wanted one.

I mentioned that I wouldn’t want to do mine in such a small club but someone mentioned that the atmosphere was probably better with everyone so close together and hyped up. Probably right but ug!
