As of October, the creator and collaborators of KORE: Dark Toga Party Edition, and the RAZED IN BLACK Live Honolulu Reunion Show presented by NHPRD; have transitioned to our very own nightlife events group:
OBSIDIAN PRODUCTIONS!
To celebrate our premiere, it’s only appropriate that we host our first “housewarming” event with a pajama and lingerie party!
Play those classic sleepover games you remember and love: Twister, pillow fight, spin the bottle, light as a feather stiff as a board, truth or dare, second blow, charades, ouija board, telephone tree, and more!
Accompanying the night are DJ Dat-Mot to cozy up the night with some fierce beats; with performances by the Obsidian Vixens: stage/dance managers Wiedii Kitty and Xylena Strange; and go-go dancers, Jenn Vicieux and Rosetta Ruin. For some end of the night gifts, the artists of Trinigrafx will be our featured sponsor vendor table.
$8 with online pre-sale (costume not required); at the door: $10 with costume, $15 without costume.
There will also be a costume contest for Best PJs and Sexiest Lingerie with prizes! So get into those pajamas you got from Grandma or Aunty, or if you’re feeling feisty, that sexy silk or lace lingerie—and head on down to NextDoor for a fun-filled night of activities!
OBSIDIAN PRODUCTIONS is proudly sponsored by:
Rockstar Tattoo & Piercing, Chaos Inc., Trinigrafx and DJ Nocturna.

Remember be safe, have fun, and most of all dont do anything to make Stu mad because he hands out lickins instead of coal! Happy Holidays!
Soho Mixed Media wasn’t just a bar it was a family. We changed the way you party, we let you be you, we made fun, we did things nobody in the bar business did and we did to make people smile, to feel comfortable in their own skin. We stuck together for 4 amazing years. We lost a great man Daniel Gray and I want to continue to honor his friendship to me and what he did for all of you. Please join us Nov 10th, we are doing it old school SOHO style with Aerialist, Fire, Live Art, Glow Sticks and some fine beverages. Donations will be accepted for Aloha Cancer Project and Christa Wittmier as she is fighting that damn disease Cancer. Thank you for supporting Soho for so many years, this party is my way of telling you THANK YOU for being in our life.
