State of Grace

We're not gonna party like it's 1899

By Lilia Menconi

Published on October 18, 2007

We should give credit to our cowboy spirit, because itÂs taught us Zonies how to get down and party. WeÂve all been boozing since we were 12, and weÂve gotten really good at it. But unlike those who settled this dirt field with night after night of getting thrashed at skeezy saloons and catching venereal diseases from the resident girls, weÂve evolved. A party in AZ has now become a classy activity. At Arizona Tempest, youÂll get the chance to hold your drink and carry on with control. With stellar eats, elegant libations, and live music by Fushicho Daiko, itÂs both an excuse for debauchery and a benefit for the Arizona Technology Council.
