Now, the good news is that the first White Party of 2007 is just around the corner. We are planning a return to TANK on Friday 27th April, so please mark that date firmly in your diaries. Tickets are available starting now, with ticket booking details appearing at the end of this email.
The theme at this event will be "Wonderland", so think Fairies, Pixies, Goblins, Elves, Ogres, or any Fairy Tale character that takes your fancy. You're challenge will be to make your Wonderland character of choice SEXY, so be prepared to get highly creative. We've decided to reduce the number of tickets available at this event so as to ensure a comfortable fit and allow enough room for those of you coming as Angels or Fairies to have plenty of space to spread those wings and fly! :o)
Dress code will be White Wonderland or Glam White, and Bondi Iceberg's will be donating a free one one year gym membership as a prize for the best costume. First guests to arrive will receive our latest White Party mix CD. If you still haven't seen the video clip of our last event please click the "Latest Video" button on our web site:

The Main Room (DJ Line Up)
==========================
DJ Corin Hansford will play the opening set, starting things off with some warm, soulful and musically seductive house beats before moving towards a more pumping selection towards the end of his set. Headlining at this party, we are excited to be welcoming back DJ/Producer Bill Fragos (

Bill first came to prominence in 2005, when he reached the Australian finals of the Heineken Thirst DJ Competition, playing alongside established House DJ supremos, Roger Sanchez and Erick Morillo. Bill is emerging as one of the leading lights in the Australian House Music scene, pushing the latest house sounds through his SoulGood radio show (
www.soulgood.com) which is broadcast across Australia. He regularly travels to perform across Australia, including at OneLove Melbourne, Summadayze Melbourne, WOMADelaide and the Future Music Festival Adelaide. Bill has collaborated on productions with Mobin Master, including remixing Roger Sanchez's "Turn on The Music", as well as tracks for Deepface and Madison Avenue. Earlier this year, Bill played alongside Roger Sanchez on his rec! ent Australian tour. Bill typically plays some of the most cutting edge sounds in house music often overlaying them with the vocals of established house classics, thereby ensuring an upfront sound with crossover appeal.

We were so impressed by Bill's spectacular performance at the last edition of The White Party, we have asked him to return to play a marathon six-hour set at our upcoming party. Our DJs will be backed up by a selection of seductive dancers, South American percussionists, vocalists and assorted entertainers to ensure an audio-visual experience not for the faint-hearted.
