Zach Moore Live from Breakfast of Champions 2012 by The Space Cowboys

Wow! What can we say? Breakfast of Champions was an overwhelming success and The Space Cowboys would like to thank each and every one of you for coming out to Mighty to celebrate the New Year with us!

So where do I start? How about the weather? 70 degrees and not a cloud in the sky (in January??). For the second year in a row we had a permitted closure of Utah Street and the entire block from 15th to Alameda was packed with all of our favorite people. The Funktion One system provided by Funkworks for the outdoor sound stage took the block party to a whole new level and, as usual, all the DJs brought their “A game”. And while thousands of you passed through the gates over the course of the day, Mighty reported no incidents – quite a testament to the respectful, fun-loving crowd we had at BoC this year (way to go, Party People!).

We also managed to collect over 100 pounds of food for the San Francisco Food Bank with the cereal box drive that was held at the main gate (thank you to ShOOey for coordinating that effort).

I want to extend a special thanks to Space Cowboys Managing Partner, Andrea Lundquist. Breakfast of Champions was the culmination of 6 months of hard work and coordination on Andrea’s part that began last summer with our SF ISCOTT hearing. BoC would not be the celebration that it is today without Andrea’s expertise and the solid relationships she has forged with the City of San Francisco, Mighty and the many audio-visual, ticketing, security, on-site medical, food and beverage providers that are crucial to the success of the event.

Andrea is an event manager by trade and you’d be hard pressed to find a better one anywhere on the West Coast. The Space Cowboys are very lucky to have her. Andrea, thank you for everything you do for the Cowboys and our community!

We’d also like to thank these folks for their invaluable contributions to Breakfast of Champions this year:

100 Episodes of The RIPEcast!

Zach Moore — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 20:28:00 +0000

I think I can confidently say that The RIPEcast is and always will be the crown jewel of all my DJ accomplishments and I’m absolutely thrilled to be posting our 100th episode this week. Thank you to 8Ball, the longest active member of our clan and one hell of a DJ, for commemorating the occasion with a fabulous 2+ hour mix.

The RIPEcast was my conception and I’ve had the great pleasure of producing it every single week for the last two years. But the show wouldn’t have anywhere near the same level of popularity without the Space Cowboys’ stellar name and reputation behind it. The Cowboy ‘brand’ is something a lot of folks in our crew (some of whom I’ve never met) started building way back in the late ‘90s, long before I ever came into the picture. So as far as I’m concerned, everyone in the group deserves some credit for the success of the podcast.

A special thanks to Johnny Mansour and Podomatic for all of their support over the last two years and also to our pal, Jem Panufnik, the talented illustrator behind the RIPEcast artwork. And last, but certainly not least, thank you to all the DJs that have appeared on the podcast so far:

8Ball, Murphstar, Myagi, Trav, Plaza de Funk, Aaron Pope, U9lift, Sammy Bliss, Erik_Hz, Justin Rushmore, Deckard, Mancub, ShOOey, Shissla, Tom Drummond, Jonboy, Pumpkin, Bush Doctors, Gravity, Arrow Chrome, Justin Paul, JDubYa, Peo de Pitte, Rennie Pilgrem, Neighbour, Qdup Foundation, J9, Bassben, Brad Robinson, Influence, DJ Wolfie, Tamo, Kapt’n Kirk, The Dublic Twins, Melyss & Big Fat Frog, rrrus, Motion Potion, Slyde, The Plump DJs, Krafty Kuts, J-Rod, Elite Force, Benchun, Icon, 2 Wrongs, JoeJoe, Kramer, Clarkie, Jive.

Here’s to another 100 episodes, Boys and Girls! Happy Holidays and we’ll see you at Breakfast of Champions!
