Obamarama Fundraiser at Supperclub Tonight
Bay Area Obama supporters will unite tonight at Supperclub for Obamarama '08. The Indiana and North Carolina primary results will be broadcast, tunes will be spun all night, free beer, sake, and vodka will be served between 9 and 10:30 p.m., and many sweet prizes provided by local businesses will be raffled off at Midnight. RSVP in advance. and receive a $15 wine gift card at the door (wine people backed out)
The event was organized by four Bay Area creatives: Dan Levine (Online Director, Current TV), Julia Walsh (Asst. Editor, CasaSugar.com), Sabrina Shamma (Broadcast Producer, Goodby Silverstein and Partners) and Reece Hoverkamp (Sr. Art Director, BBDO WEST). Their goal is to raise $10,000 to support Senator Obama's campaign for change.

Is there anywhere else to go tonight to watch the primary results? I don't think I want to hang out at a creepy club.. I'd rather go to a bar/restaurant.

We will be streaming the results all night (probably CNN) but will have music playing and a party going on. (closed captioning turned on, etc.) If there are any decisive speeches given tonight, we'll cut and play them!
But, if a fun party at a cozy bar/restaurant/club is "creepy" then it's probably not for you.
If anyone else has questions, hit us up at obamaramasf@gmail.com :-)
GO OBAMA

The polls will be start to close as early as 3, and by 4 or 5 elsewhere at the very latest, winners should be known by 6 or 7.
Not very blue collar, eh? Supperclub SF is not exactly Crown Royal-and-Bud country.
Could be fun though.
also, wlynn ~ supperclub is swanky, not creepy.
supperclub is fun. don't believe the those who are too real to hang out at such a place.
Meh. Have to agree with aj. "Swank" is exactly what I don't want at primary party.
I wanna be able to cheer and get shit-faced my fellow liberals when they post the North Carolina results. (And then boo & curse the screen with when they post Indiana's.)
Can I do that at Supperclub? The website doesn't give that vibe. But any organizing is good organizing.
Full disclosure: I've never been to the Supperclub.
However, for my own personal taste (or, arguably, lack thereof), nightclubs seem 'creepy'.
So.. trolling around on the interweb I found out that there is also a primary watching party at Waziema.

No offense to the organizers of the other event, but I'd rather give 25 bucks online and not worry about a dress code.
I have no opinion on Supper Club but I just noticed that portrait of Obama looks exactly like Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Hmmm the Supper Club or Ethiopian food and conversation, decisions, decisions,
By the time the party starts, the polls will have LONG since closed. So you can decide whether to go or not based on the results.
