Hi all.
Tales of the cocktail 2011 is just days away, and once again, I find myself in the middle of a maelstrom of preparation and beautiful, beautiful organized chaos.
This year will be my second year at Tales of the Cocktail, and am committed to making this the CRAZIEST year yet. Crazy, simply because I've decided to have the TOTC experience totally sober.
Why throw yourself into a Cocktail an Spirits convention and not participate in the debauchery...you may ask? My simple answer...perspective.
Documenting this experience from both an indulgent and a completely restrained point of view seem like an interesting test in sociology.
Since becoming sober, and continuing to work in the adult beverage industry, it has been an eye opening experience for me, simply observing how people interact. New Orleans seems to be a perfect setting for this surreal type of experience. What will it be like to be one of the only lucid people, amongst a sea of glazed humanity .
My intention is not to embarrass, or be embarrassed, my intention is to participate in the entertainment of the event, without subjecting myself to the pain of recovering from the nights exploits.
Follow along for the next week an a half as I document the days events from the Fench Quarter.
