eXpose yourself.

It’s been sometime since the update and after some thinking / mapping the super-recreation, I’ve decided to open up the MORE SUPER forum to ALL !

What do I mean by that!?

2 initial thoughts:
#1.
I would like to add your images of art to this site and showcase a new talent each week.
Send 3 images + your website (or email if you don’t have a site yet) + 20(ish) words about yourself/your work.
ALL TYPES OF ART TO BE SHOWCASED!
Hanging Art, Installation Art, Photography, Fashion, Web Design, Graphic Design, culinary.

I’ll be posting up things I find and like as well and hope to have a good data base of things out there and this local.  (Local for now being defined as either San Diego or San Francisco)

#2.
I would LOVE to hear your voice !

Do you already have a blog?  Promote it by becoming a writer with moresuper.com!
Pick your category and we’ll begin to explore the timelines/content & more!

In the meantime, I’ll be working on the new site design/layout/marketing.
I’d like to see this become a place for all to share and help to work together on something to promote and support one another!

Looking forward to this new idea.
Miss the shows, events and even the mayhem, yes.
Still want to support and do all I can, yes.
so, let’s make this happen…..Together!

be super!

MORE SUPER Thursdays Finale

LAST NIGHT…..
SEPTEMBER 24TH
COME PLAY!
YES, There will be a theme!
“Capes” & “Robbers”
Best one gets your picture on moresuper.com with a glowing review of how sUper you are!

For the past year, every Thursday has been sUper!  With local artists, live painters, bands, DJ’s, circus acts, cocktails, guest bartenders.
The time has come to hang our capes in preparation  for MORE SUPER things to come!
I’d like to take this time to thank everyone for support, art, music, talent and having so much fun this past year with us!!
As a wrap up, here are some of our favorite memories from the year’s sUper Thursdays:

• The “One Will” premier with our Trashed Celebrity theme!  (it really was scarry how easily I fell into such a good rendition of Courtney Love….)
  If you missed the movie, you can find it here.



• Art Brewer Night !
  What an honor it was to have surf photography legend, Art Brewer, attend our event & sign his Masters of Surf Photography books!  Thank You as well to the Surfing Heritage Foundation for lending us the 30+ beautiful images that decorated our walls all month of July ’09



• EQUALITY EVENT
  Special thanks to everyone who showed support for SD Pride & Marriage Equality.  We had a great time & raised awareness (and a little $) for the cause!  We strongly support individual rights and equality.
• Collide “Fashion meets Art”
  After many years of knowing Allison Andrews, APA Consulting, we finally got to throw an event together!  Allison had recently created and executed Fashion Week San Diego and it was a pleasure to work with her and her team!  The results were simply sUper and we look forward to a long friend and business partnership with Allison and the designers.
• The Themes!
  After nearly a year of this weekly event, we have worn some pretty outrageous and fun outfits!  (Most of you know Jordan and I are typically dressed nearly identical…..She’s gotten use to it by now!)
• Live Art
  Every week, we featured various artists and included live painters.  These artists are amazing and it’s truly special to be there when the creation is happening!  Special thanks to our regular crew:  Alex Julian, Franky Agostino, Mark Jesinoski, Vincent Gordon, E-Man and so many more! (links to all on this site)
• Live Music
  We had the pleasure of many diverse musical talents & hope to see them all go on to reach their dreams!  Special thanks to:  Los Hollywood, FUZZ, Stealing Love Jones, Awesome New Republic, Geezer (with their Beastie Boys set!), Run Honey, Pau Hana, Mono-Mono, & so many more!  (links to all on this site)
• Dance to The DJ
  By far, my favorite type of way to groove:  A good friggin DJ!  We opened sUper Thursdays by being sUper enough to enlist Mix Architekt to be our original resident DJ.  We bid him farewell as he and wife depart to begin their new lives living in Thailand.  Keep up with his new mixes here.  Without the help of our other favorite DJ’s like The Pied Piper, Monchis, Mike Mae & Brooklyn, we never would have been able to maintain our sUper ranking!
• The best assistant –EVER!
  Next time you see Jordan, be sure to tell her how amazing she is –Cuz, she is!  Without Jordan, “more sUper” would likely be “mostly okay”.
  Between the crazy outfits I think up and the long lunches discussing every aspect of life, Jordan brings a touch to more sUper that would be impossible to exist without her genuine approach and clever words.  Thank you Jordan from all of us for all those times you shared yourself to be our errand girl, our support and mostly our friend….
• Cocktails?!
  With the help of Brandon (not only pouring your drinks, but also booking all those sUper Thursday bands you came out to see!) and Wes, the bar continuously is it’s own show!  These guys aren’t your “come sob to the bartender” types…..because they’re gonna get you to laugh (usually at themselves!) and enjoy your cocktail!  Thank you boys!  –and our guest bartneders:  Jimbo, Dan, Gavin, Justin & more!
• Everybody Loves Brian
  Likely the best looking door man in San Diego (even in Hillcrest!)  You’re rad Brian , you know it, we know it.
• The Ruby Room
  This spot has been our home every Thursday and Brittni and Sean have been amazing.  Having been friends for years, it’s always nice to be able to build something so special with those you love!  Thank You both we’ll be back soon!  we *heart* you
• Best Attendance Award
  Paris Davis!  Not only is everyone now wearing a tie bracelet, but you’ve never missed a sUper Thursday!  You win!  You win!

Stacie May | staciemay.com
Staci May’s line consists of vintage-inspired one-of-a-kind looks that possess a unique timelessness. The inspiration for Stacie May’s graceful, fun, flirty looks can be attributed to a combination of life inundation and appreciation of antique and vintage collectibles, art, music, movies, history, and architecture along with an aspiration and flair for experimentation with fabrics, colors, textures, and cuts that compliment.

Petra O –Watch Me | watchmedontstop.com
Designer of WatchMe! by PetraO is in a class all herself. With her distinct sense of style each design can truly be recognized as an original PetraO piece of art.
