opaque runs tings

a taste of our parties...The Opaque Project was created by Johnny Love in 2001 and has been throwing the ultimate jam parties since then, most famously Love to Lust in February 2003 which got a front page article in section 3 of the Chicago Reader.Opaque is made up of Johnny Love the dirtiest disco whore, Ian Hicks aka Hixxx aka Big Chicks aka prized pupil of Scotlands school of mutant disco, Autobot the ultimate party dj robot on 2 wheels, Biobooster aka the woman violater Atomly the viking from the great white north, everyones favorite post rave homo disco playing beardo Jeffrey Sfire in New York, Jared etc in L.A., and the mysterious sti_3 don of new beat and Belgian hardcore.During the end of spring/early summer of 2004 Opaque was centered around the now infamous (thank you Cindy for puking all over) House of Love which was located at 2074 N Leavitt.Then up until April 2006 we were centered around the Jerkstore at 1550 N.
