Or dress up like your favorite Mexican icon: Frida Kahlo, Emiliano Zapata, etc. Zapatistas and Mexican Revolutionaries! Gangster zoot suits! Cholos/cholas! Gringos! Sombreros! Ponchos! Aztecs! Or just wear a silly taco costume!

VIVA MEXICO!

Kiss & Tell Guest DJ: Big Bully
Hailing from Los Angeles with Mexican heritage, Dawson Baca (aka Big Bully) likes to work the crowd with his playful yet incisive cuts, jacked up beats, and sultry vocals. He is a dj/musician/vocalist/producer and label head of his label Mineral Musica. Bully's unique blend of streetwise flavor and techno sophistication certainly adds an edge to the minimal techno scene. This renegade musician is always in search of the new, whether he's on the decks, on the microphone, or rocking a live set. He has two releases coming out very soon with Adultnapper on Culprit and Simple Records.

Kiss & Tell Hostess, Photographer, Designer: Seze Devres started Kiss & Tell as an extension of her raunchy knitting circle at Trash Bar on December 7, 2005. At first only a few people showed up to her new cocktail party. However with a lot of help, support, and encouragement from her friends the party has become its own little beast. When she is is not dreaming up crazy themes and guests for Kiss & Tell she is a full time artist and designer. Seze's images and designs have graced dozens of galleries, record covers, posters, flyers, magazines, and web sites.
