Team members,

We can't wait. Things are coming together so well, it is even blowing our minds how incredible ORANJE will be this year. We are grateful from the bottom of our hearts and the depths of our souls that Indy has shown such tremendous support for something as f*$#ed up as ORANJE. Patrons of ORANJE, pat yourselves on the back for being so cool, and brace yourselves for some of the most amazingly talented performances and exhibitions this side of the White River.

Exhaustion has infiltrated our bodies. We are relying on a steady dose of caffeine, and a lot of inspiration to keep us going. A day behind the scenes at ORANJE would make any normal person drop to the ground. However, the creative and wonderful people that compose this event make it worth every energy-draining moment. We are just so thankful to be doing this. It is unbelievable. Truly.

It is safe to say that everyone is very excited about Saturday night. Remember, the doors open at 8pm, and we will rock it out until 3am. ORANJE will ripen this Saturday, September 18th @ 602 E. Washington St, in beautiful downtown Indianapolis. Tickets are still available through Ticketmaster (www.ticketmaster.com), as well as at Monon Coffee Co., Urbane Optical, and Tee's Daydream's, for $12. Otherwise, tickets can be purchased at the door for $15.

Who needs sleep?
