More Photos From Last Night’s Bishop Arts Dem Soiree

Hard to say why Liz Lavin took so many pics of Zac. Could be because Zac is photogenic. Could be because Lavin swallowed half the green phosphorescent liquid from a glow-in-the-dark necklace. Either way, here is some of Lavin’s fine work from last night.

I'm not sure what happened here. But my takeaway is that Eric has a hairy belly.
gogo said it best in the comments. Zac: “Dude, where’s my BMX bike?” Eric: “Dude, where’s my gay shirt?” Tim: “Dude, where’s my toupee?”

Judge John Creuzot shows everyone his guns.
The mustachioed man in uniform will remain nameless because I don’t know his name. But the woman getting the helping hand is the under-indictment Rep. Terri Hodge.
Sheriff Lupe Valdez with Judge Ken Molberg.
You know who came casual to the party? DA Craig Watkins. That’s who.
Hoper Danielle Sibley had herself a cool shirt that may or may not have violated some copyright laws.
The aforementioned Z. Crain was himself filled with hope. Can’t you tell?
Again, more Zac. Seen here with Rep. Rafael Anchia. While the rest of the elected Dems were onstage, patting each other on the back, Anchia was on the other side of the street, awaiting TV camera time.
The mysterious mustachioed man apparently prefers French cuffs.
Hopers filled with hope. And change.
Somewhere in this crowd, Wick is high-fiving someone. Or not.
Zac lets Lavin know that she is NOT to get close to yrs trly and Kurt Watkins, cousin of the DA.
State Sen. Royce West is a big dude. If I had to guess who would win in a bar fight — Royce West or Lupe Valdez — I’d go with Royce West. Whom the Observer confused with Ron Kirk.
At one point in the evening, Sheriff Lupe Valdez did a painting of the crowd. Here you can see her using her thumb to judge scale and perspective.
This is one too many pictures of three twits jumping in the air.

  8. So no one told you life was gonna be this way
    (clap clap clap clap)
    Your job’s a joke, you’re broke, your love life’s D.O.A.
    It’s like you’re always stuck in second gear
    When it hasn’t been your day, your week, your month, or even your year
    But
    I’ll be there for you (when the rain starts to pour)
    I’ll be there for you (like I’ve been there before)
    I’ll be there for you (because you’re there for me too)

  17. Each leaping-in-the-air pic should be accompanied by the opening chord of Hard Day’s Night.

  18. Looking at these photos, I now realize why Schutze seemed alarmed by my sudden appearance at his elbow. I look like a homeless werewolf. Which is okay since that is what I was going for.

  19. I think the D team needs to setup a skipping race with the Ticket Guys. You may give them a challenge…

  20. too old for Teen Wolf, so maybe thirtysomewolf? maybe? no?

    and, Bethany, those aren’t shoes, they’re Vans, as i’m sure you know, and i literally just purchased a pair of size 3s for the wee lad online

    wish i was there to join in the hijinx last night…looks like everyone was overserved and had a blast

    Bolsa and Eno’s are both good stuff and welcome additions to the burgeoning BAD-ass 75208 scene
