S P A C E C O W B O Y S

It has been a busy week in the Space Cowboy administrative offices keeping track of all of the links and shout outs we’ve received from the likes of Wired, CNET, sfgate, all praising the efforts of the talented crews who help put together Yuri’s Night last week down at Moffet Field.

It was not the Unimog’s first appearance at Yuri’s Night, and hopefully not the last. We had a great time rocking on the tarmac while NASA security gave us props on the music and our truck. Not to mention the huge crowd getting down in front of her bass. A big thanks to everyone who worked on, came out, rocked on and supported this night. We hope a greater appreciation for Space was at least one of the things you left with that night.

For those of you who missed it, here a just a few links and photos to check out:

From SFGate: The Space Cowboys’ UNIMOG has a few hundred people’s bootys on fire just a dozen yards from barbed wire fences.

From Business2.com: ...Space Cowboys – the Bay Area’s hottest DJ posse – were on hand with their Burning Man art car, the Unimog, to lead the dance.
