In a time of ancient students, software engineers and lawyers,
A land in turmoil cried out for a party.
It was a XENA costume party,
A mighty feast forged in the heat of the moment.
The Power! The Passion! The Debauchery!
Their costumes will change the world.

On the evening of March 21, 1998, an event of great glamour and import took place. I, Soundwarrior, in my constant quest to turn fantasy into reality, decided that the only way I could possibly celebrate my birthday was to compel relatives,friends & those of my acquaintance to garb themselves in slips of vinyl & leather, don high boots & gauntlets, arm themselves with the finest plastic & wooden swords K-Mart could provide and venture forth to drink, be merry and most importantly, be photographed for posterity!

On this page you will find links to a rather extensive collection of photographs & video grabs, garnered on this momentous evening, and the historic scrolls that describe the party,for your edification and amusement. When you have had your fill I encourage you to complete my Survey and vote for your pick for Best Costume, Best Subtext Photo etc. For those who must know more about the splendiforous hand-crafted costumes, look out for additions to the Fan Art & Crafts page.
