THE 10 MOST HORRIBLE THINGS PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT MY NEW


YEAR'S EVE PARTY
DONOVAN'S TOP TEN "OTHER" AMAZING NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTIES IN SAN
FRANCISCO
FOR YOU TO CONSIDER:
We wish nothing but the absolute best for all of our industry friends and peers throwing
competing parties in San Francisco. We want everyone to win and be successful, because
that only strengthens San Francisco nightlife. Unfortunately, New Year's Eve is the most
"competitive" night of the year where everyone from the largest nightclub to the smallest
hotel or restaurant, to almost every friend or family member at their home, is hosting
their very own New Year's Eve get-together. There is nothing more exciting than a little
"friendly competition" which benefits everybody because the "bar has to be raised" to be
competitive. Everyone is forced to put their best-foot-forward and produce their very best
New Year's Eve experience in order to be competitive. However, unfortunately, out of
desparation or fear, there are always some "bad apples" that don't like to "play fair" and
propagate "incorrect information" to hurt their competition. I do not advocate this type of
behavior or marketing strategy. That is not only bad business, but bad kharma. I believe
in playing fairly, ethically, and wanting everyone to win.

However, again, unfortunately, due to New Year's Eve at City Hall being one of the
largest, most high profile New Year's Eve events of the Bay Area, we are under malicious
attack by some of our competitors that are spreading bad information about our event.
The point of this email is to simply provide you and your friends with the "correct
information" about our New Year's Eve event, discredit the "incorrect information" a few
"bad apples" in the industry have created and propagated about our party, and empower
you to make a very "informed" and "educated" decision on which New Year's Eve party
is right for you. After reading my email below, hopefully, you will have clarity whether
New Year's Eve at City Hall is right for you. Again, we only wish the very best for our
industry friends and peers (including even those "bad apples") and only want a wonderful
and very successful New Year's Eve for everyone. Without further ado, here are "The 10
Most Horrible Things People Are Saying About My New Year's Eve Party":

PROPAGANDA #1
DONOVAN IS "DOUCHE-BAG" AND HIS PARTIES ARE "CHEESY". WHY
WOULD YOU WANT TO GOTO ONE OF HIS EVENTS?

My Correction to the Public:


As many people will love to tell you, I am "douche bag", my parties are "cheesy" and not
to support me. As much as I am in the public eye and try my best to pour my heart out in
my emails for all of you to know who I truly am, there still appears to be huge
misperception about who I truly am as a person and how I strive with all of my heart and
soul to be a valueable contributing member of San Francisco nightlife and to this city as a
whole. Over the past 7 years of my promotional career, I have dedicated myself to trying
to bring something "different" and "fresh" to San Francisco that was missing. I knew that
I was going against the grain of San Francisco's "laid-back fashion" culture and "all about
the music" culture when I began promoting high-fashion, pretty people parties back in
2001 and have been publicly bashed my entire career for trying to offer San Francisco a
"different" choice out of their city nightlife experience.

People who don't know me, but only see my pictures and the lifestyle I promote, are
quick to judge me as superficial, pretentious, arrogant, conceded, greedy, and unethical
person. For those "few" people who really know me as either a personal friend or as a
professional peer who has worked closely with me knows the "real" Donovan who, I like
to believe, is a very profound, very selfless, very confident (yet at the same time
insecure), very generous, and absolutely, most ethical person they know. Unfortunately,
you cannot judge a book by its cover. Over the past 7 years, my mission has always been
to support as many local San Francisco artists and businesses as my own business grew
and became stronger. However, ironically, the stronger my business became and the more
people I tried to help in San Francisco along the way, the stronger and more harsh the
public criticism and public slander I received. I am told by my friends and professional
peers that this is a good thing and that I'm doing a "something right" if so many people
are going out of their way to speak so vehemently negatively about me. I can't help but
feel hurt by all this public slander, but my spirit never sways. I try to keep my chin up and
keep marching forward towards my life-long mission: "Make San Francisco the most
desirable place to live and party in the world."

I have played a very active role in supporting charity fundraisers for philanthropic groups
such as Global Green, GEN ART, The Make-A-Wish Foundation, American Cancer
Society, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Destination Foundation, Glide Memorial,
Little Kids Rock, Toys for Tots, City of Dreams, Step Into the Beat, The Guardsmen,
American Nicaraguan Foundation, and Bill Graham Presents. My DonovanSF
promotional business generates millions of dollars a year for the city of San Francisco's
local businesses such as hotels, restaurants, theaters, salons, retail stores, nightclubs,
bars/lounges, public transportation, and local government. So I like to believe my
existence and contribution to San Francisco is a positive one. However, if after reading
this personal note from me, you still feel I'm a douche bag, and do not wish to support
me, I hope you will reconsider because there are a lot of other wonderful people involved
that deserve your support.

REASON #1 & #2:


NATE MEZMER & MIKE FITZGERALD
Nate Mezmer & Mike Fitzgerald are two class-act gentlemen that are the "next
generation of San Francisco nightlife" that feel as passionate as I do about making a
difference and pushing the envelope for San Francisco nightlife. Nate Mezmer & Mike
Fitzgerald deserve your support on New Year's.
To learn more about Nate Mezmer, please visit www.natemezmerpresents.com.
To learn more about Mike Fitzgerald, please visit
http://www.facebook.com/people/Michael-A-Fitzgerald/768170553.
REASON #3:
THE SPINSTERS OF SAN FRANCISCO
The Spinsters of San Francisco is an amazing female non-profit organization committed
to "women empowerment" and helping professional women network and take their
professional careers to their ultimate level with a powerful support base of other
professional women behind them, while at the same time committed to raising huge
amounts of money for amazing charities such as "City of Dreams". The Spinsters of San
Francisco deserve your support on New Year's.

REASON #4:
CITY OF DREAMS CHARITY ORGANIZATION
"City of Dreams" is a non-profit charity organization who's mission is to help youth
living in San Francisco's low-income housing communities build brighter futures. Their
bold vision is to end the generational poverty cycle in our city's most challenged
neighborhoods. City of Dreams deserves your support on New Year's.
To learn more about the "City of Dreams" charity, please visit www.cityofdreams.org.

REASON #5:
SOMA MAGAZINE
SOMA Magazine is one of very few high-end fashion magazines published out of San
Francisco that has been committed to building San Francisco's high-end fashion culture
and sophisticated market for over 10 years now. SOMA Magazine deserves your support
on New Year's.
To learn more about SOMA Magazine, please visit www.somamagazine.com

REASON #6:
CHRIS CLOUSE
One of our headlining talents, Chris Clouse, who I personally think is one of the most
talented artists to ever come out of San Francisco, is still, for the most part,
"undiscovered" and has "not yet" become a Hollywood discovered "Rolling Stone"
celebrity & world-famous musician. Chris has poured his heart out on stages all year for
San Francisco waiting for his "big break". Come see him at New Year's at City Hall so
you can say "I saw Chris Clouse back in the day in San Francisco before he became
CHRIS CLOUSE" If you have never heard or seen Chris Clouse befre, you are missing
out. So Chris Clouse definitely deserves your support on New Year's.
To learn more about Chris Clouse, visit www.chrisclouse.com.

REASON #7:
JESSICA RAE & THE DESIRED TEMPTATIONS
Our midnight entertainment, The Desired Temptations, are not only some of the most
beautiful, but also some of the hardest working women in San Francisco nightlife. Due to
the founder Jessica Rae's vision and genuine heart and passion, over the past 3 years, the
Desired Temptations went from being Jessica's dream to being the leading choreographed
dance team and "go go" dance group in the Bay Area. Jessica Rae & The Desired
Temptations just launched their very own charity organization called "STEP INTO THE
BEAT" empowering Bay Area underprivileged youths to channel their energies and
express their inner-self through dance. Jessica Rae & The Desired Temptations definitely
deserve your support on New Year's.
To learn more about The Desired Temptations, please visit www.desiredtemptations.com.

REASON #8:
INDUSTRY415
industry 415 is the production company behind our New Year's Eve "Milan & Paris"
inspired fashion show featuring the Spring 2009 collections of world-famous fashion
designers PRADA (www.prada.com) and Dolce & Gabbana (www.dolcegabbana.com).
industry415 is a relatively unknown, unsung hero in San Francisco that has been "behind
the scenes" supporting famous national projects such as the MTV Movie Awards, MTV
VMA’s, ABC Network, The CW Network, Luxury Magazine, Forever21, Juicy Couture,
Ben Sherman, Marie Clair Magazine, Teen Vogue, Seventeen Magazine, Miami Swim
Fashion Show, Magic Trade Show, Macy's Passport Show and many others. industry 415
is putting San Francisco on the map for high fashion. industry415 definitely deserves
your support on New Year's.
To learn more about industry415, please visit www.industry415.com.

REASON #9:
SANFORD MARSHAL & SANMAN PRODUCTIONS
Sanford Marshall and his production company SanMan Productions, is the main
production company behind the decor & production elements of New Year's Eve @ City
Hall. Sanford Marshall is one of the hardest working, one of the smartest, and most
talented individuals I have ever worked with in my entire event production career and he
is my "secret weapon". SanMan Productions is one of the Bay Area's premier corporate
events and wedding planners, with high profile clients such as Francis Ford Coppola, The
San Francisco Bay Club, as well as the most popular, most in-demand wedding planner
behind the most expensive, elaborate weddings for Nob Hill's most social elite. Sanford
Marshall and and Sanman Productions deserve your support on New Year's.
To learn more about Sanman Productions, please visit www.sanmanproductions.com.

REASON #10:
CITY HALL
Last but not least, City Hall, the capital of San Francisco, the office of Mayor Gavin
Newsom, and all of our political constituents, who break their back every day to make
San Francisco a better place for us all to live. The Events Department at City Hall has
worked year after year after year on holidays such as New Year's to provide life-long
memories for you, your friends, your family, and your professional peers who have
attended past City Hall events. After decades of hard work, City Hall has chosen to no
longer ask it's city workers to leave their families and work on New Year's Eve. This
Wednesday, December 31, 2008, will be your and your friends' VERY LAST opportunity
to experience the magic of New Year's Eve at City Hall. Can you live the rest of your life

So whether you still think I am a "douche bag", my parties are still "cheesy", and you still
do not wish to support me or my events after reading this personal note, there are still 10
other people/organizations involved with this event that are absolutely wonderful,
including the city of San Francisco itself, that are reason enough to justify overlooking
me and coming to New Year's Eve at City Hall: The last New Year's Eve party ever to be
experienced at City Hall. Please support these wonderful people and amazing
organizations.

PROPAGANDA #2
THE CROWD AT CITY HALL IS GOING TO BE WHACK! IT'S GOING TO BE ALL
"BRIDGE & TUNNEL" AND "AMATEUR NIGHT". WE HAVE THE LOCALS & THE
"IN THE KNOW" CROWD AT OUR PARTY!

My Correction to the Public:


Our New Year's Eve at City Hall party has spent $0 on public/mass-market advertising of
our event. All marketing for New Year's Eve at City Hall has been extremely targeted
through only DONOVAN's exclusive mailing list of Bay Area fashion-foward, sexy,
sophisticated hipsters, NATE MEZMER & MIKE FITZGERALD's very targeted upscale
mash-up/ hip hop clientele, SOMA MAGAZINE'S very targeted mailing list of highly
eclectic, cultrually-refined, fashion-savvy readers, as well as THE SPINSTERS OF SAN
FRANCISCO's very targeted list of very affulent, high-society philanthropic socialites.
Our only other source of marketing/promotion has been through word of mouth "one on
one" communication through Facebook to our personal network of friends. Unlike all of
our major New Year's Eve competitors, we have zero advertising from radiio stations
such as 92.7FM or newspapers such as SF Weekly, Guardian, Chronicle, or online
nightlife resources such as SFStation, Nitevibe, Eventvibe, etc. New Year's Eve at City
Hall is by far, the most "have to be in the know" New Year's Eve party of San Francisco
and is more "underground" than even the most "underground" New Year's Eve party
being publicly advertised and promoted on Nitevibe.com. Everyone attending our New
Year's Eve at City Hall event is a friend or friend of a friend of one of the main
organizers. Although this party will be 3,000 people in size, it will be the largest local
party of friends, family, and familiar faces of any New Year's Eve party in San Francisco.
So please don't believe the hype.

New Year's Eve at City Hall also features for the first-time in San Francisco history, a live
fashion show showcasing a "sneak peak" of the Spring 2009 Collections of world-famous
designers PRADA and DOLCE & GABBANA. What type of crowd do you think a
"Milan & Paris" inspired fashion show of the most famous, most expensive, most elegant,
and most cutting-edge couture fashion designs in the world is going to attract? As you
can easily deduce, due to our high profile fashion show, New Year's Eve at City Hall is
attracting the most fashion elite of not only the Bay Area, but jet-setters from all over the
world flying in to attend our party to see this unprecedented fashion show at the very last
New Year's Eve event ever at San Francisco City Hall.

Also, due to New Year's Eve at City Hall being 'THE MOST EXPENSIVE TICKET IN
TOWN", our high cost ticket price will only attract a very cultured, very affluent crowd
that can afford a $150+ ticket price. This ticket price weeds out the "boys" from the "true
gentlemen" and weeds out the "girls" from the "ladies". This will be a class act event with
a class act crowd. So if you are willing to spend a little more money for a more polished,
more refined crowd than anywhere else in town, and if you are looking for that
"marriage-material" romantic partner to take home to mom and not just another "one
night stand", than New Year's Eve at City Hall is the place for you.

PROPAGANDA #3
THE CITY HALL PARTY IS WAY OVER PRICED! OUR PARTY IS WAY MORE
BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!

Our Correction to the Public:


If you compare per square footage of entertainment/decor/ambience/crowd quality/venue
quality/and class & sophistication level, nothing takes even a close 2nd to the $/sq. foot
value you are receiving at our New Year's Eve party. We have spent over $160,000 on the
production of our New Year's Eve event at City Hall party to deliver the most
breathtaking, most memorable New Year's Eve experience of your life. We have spared
no expense to deliver the best New Year's Eve production and experience in San
Francisco. Comparing our event to other New Year's Eve parties in the city is like
comparing apples to oranges. They cannot be compared. It would actually be unfair to
our competitors for you to compare our New Year's Eve party to theirs. Don't even try.
Either you are looking for the highest quality production, the most gorgeous, most high
profile crowd, and best experience of your life for New Year's or you are looking for "The
Best Deal". New Year's Eve at City Hall is proudly "THE MOST EXPENSIVE TICKET
IN TOWN" and for good reason. We are delivering the most elaborate, most expensive
New Year's Eve production and experience in San Francisco. You are getting way more
bang for your buck with every dollar you spend at City Hall than any other New Year's
Party in town.

New Year's Eve at City Hall is also one of a very few New Year's Eve parties in San
Francisco that is "charity fundraising" event where a portion of every dollar raised will go
to San Francisco based charity CITY OF DREAMS. City of Dreams is a charity
organization who's mission is to help youth living in San Francisco's low-income housing
communities build brighter futures. Their bold vision is to end the generational poverty
cycle in our city's most challenged neighborhoods. For more information on CITY OF
DREAMS, please visit their website at www.cityofdreams.org. Having a hard time
justifying paying that extra $25 our party costs over all other major parties? A large
porition of this extra money you are contemplating is worth paying or not for New Year's
Eve at City Hall actually goes 100% towards you educating and empowering San
Francisco's underprivileged youths and providing them with a "chance" at a brighter
future. The people who already bought tickets and are attending our New Year's Eve at
City Hall event are philanthropic people committed to "helping" and making "positive
changes" for San Francisco and The Bay Area and are willing to pay a few exta dollars to
show their love and support to our beautiful city. Are you? These philanthropic people
who bought tickets to our event are supporting a New Year's Eve event committed to
making a positive contribution to San Francisco, not just a New Year's Eve event
throwing a kick-ass party. Our event is committed to making positive social change. If
this matters to you, than New Year's Eve at City Hall is the place for you.

PROPAGANDA #4
CITY HALL IS NOT OPEN BAR! OUR NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTY IS!

Our Correction to the Public:


We advocate a "RESPONSIBLE DRINKING" environment over "OPEN BAR" format to
protect you and your guests' safety as well as to ensure a classy, sophisticated New Years
Eve experience for you and your friends. When you purchase a VIP Upgrade Ticket, you
will receive four (4) COMPLIMENTARY top-shelf drinks at the bar. Most people do not
want or need to drink more than 4 cocktails in an entire evening. If someone does wish to
drink more, they certainly are entitled to pay for more drinks at the bar, we simply don't
advocate that. FOR YOU & YOUR FRIENDS' SAFETY, PLEASE DRINK
RESPONSIBLY.

PROPAGANDA #5
CITY HALL IS WAY TOO ENORMEOUS! DON'T YOU & YOUR FRIENDS WANT
SOMETHING SMALLER & MORE INTIMATE FOR NEW YEAR'S LIKE MY
PARTY?

Our Correction to the Public:


Almost every competing New Year's Eve event in the city is at least 600+ in size. Our
New Year's Eve Event at City Hall offers 4 different "intimate" parties in one, each
roughly 600 people in size. If you and your friends want an intimate evening with just
Chris Clouse, there is a 600 person room & party made just for you. If you and your
friends want to have an intimate evening of upscale hip hop and mash up and love Nate
Mezmer & Mike Fitzgerald parties, there's a 600 person room & party made just for you.
If you and your friends want to hear house music in a sophisticated environment with a
gorgeous high-fashion crowd with Donovan, there's a 600 person room & party made just
for you. If you and your friends want the most "exclusive", most "high-end", most
luxurious New Year's Eve experience of your life, where you and your friends are catered
to, pampered and treated like royalty, there's a 600 person VIP Mezzanine area & party
made just for you. So whatever you are looking for, New Year's Eve at City Hall has it.
Whether you and your friends simply want an intimate 600 person party or a 2400 person
extravaganza, New Year's Eve at City Hall offers you and your friends the best of both
worlds.

PROPAGANDA #6
YOU ARE GOING TO WAIT AN HOUR OR MORE FOR A DRINK AT CITY HALL!
YOU ARE GOING TO GET DRINKS FASTER AT OUR PARTY!

Our Correction to the Public:


Nobody in this business takes more pride in delivering the best customer service
experience for my clients than me. After either producing or co-producing 7 large scale
New Year's events over the past 7 years: Bentley Reserve (See Pics), The Embarcadero
Center (See Pics), The Mark Hopkins Hotel (See Pics), IMG (See Pics), Clift Hotel (See
Pics), etc. There are very few event organizers in San Francisco who can list a more
successful resume of "homerun" New Year's Eve parties with a famous reputation for
high quality productions and service like mine. Believe me, I made my mistakes in my
early years of producing New Year's Eve events. I had the great misfortune and heartache
of fielding upset emails and phone calls from customers who said I "ruined" their and
their wives and friends' New Year's Eve because I didn't do this or didn't do that at my
event. Though these many years of trial by fire, no one is more qualified and experienced
at providing the hightest quality of customer service. I am extremely sensitive to the fact
that people are paying a lot of money to have the time of their lives at our New Year's
Eve party at City Hall. The last thing I want is for any of you to spend a lot of your
special night waiting in line to get a drink.

In order to ensure you and your friends are partying and not waiting in lines, we have
"overhired" and "overstaffed" with more bartenders than industry standard to provide you
with the most number of bars and bartenders possible throughout City Hall. We have also
created VIP Bar Areas for our VIP Upgrade Ticketholders to give them the convenience
of even quicker service, as well as to alleviate demand and long lines on our general
public area bars. Over the past month, I have also spent close to two weeks out in Las
Vegas doing bottle service at all of the top nightclubs to study their bottle service
methodoloy and procedures to deliver "Vegas level and above" quality bottle service to
our guests. My motto is "SERVICE IS KING" and on this special night, I plan to deliver
for my customers.

So you and your friends can choose to attend another New Year's Eve event with an event
organizer with much less New Year's Eve production experience or with unproven track
record. Or you can place "The Most Special Night of the Year" in the hands of the most
famous, most seasoned expert for producing the highest quality productions and highest
quality customer service in all of San Francisco for the past 7 years.

PROPAGANDA #7
IF YOU GO TO CITY HALL, YOU ARE GOING TO BE WAITING FOR HOURS
OUTSIDE & SPENDING YOUR MIDNIGHT AT NEW YEAR'S OUTSIDE IN THE
FREEZING COLD WAITING TO GET INSIDE.

Our Correction to the Public:


Due to the large number of anticipated guests attending our New Year's Eve at City Hall,
I have "hired" as consultants past event producers of full-capacity New Year's Eve and
Halloween parties at City Hall to teach me all the things they have learned from all of
their past mistakes in producing large scale events at City Hall. Again, I am very sensitive
to ensuring my customers have the most pleasant, stress free experience on the "The Most
Special Night of the Year" for them, their friends and loved ones. The last thing I want is
you and your friends waiting even an extra minute outside in the cold and not enjoying
this extremely expensive production I have invested over $160,000 to ensure you and
your friends have the night of your life. My hard earned money will have gone wasted
then. In order to make your entrance into City Hall as quick, painless, and stress-free as
possible, we have created the most effective "entry system" ever produced for a City Hall
event of this size.

TWO MAJOR ENTRANCES:


VIP/BOTTLE SERVICE WILL CALL ON POLK ST. SIDE;
GENERAL ADMISSION TICKETHOLDER WILL CALL ON VAN NESS ST. SIDE

To alleviate your wait time, we have quadruple-staffed our "Ticket Will Call" and
admission checkpoints, providing for the very first time in City Hall event history,
"Ticket Will Call" and ticketholder entrance on the main entrance side on Polk St. for our
BOTTLE SERVICE ticketholders and VIP UPGRADE TICKETHOLDERS while
providing 'Ticket Will Call" and ticketholder entrance on Van Ness for our GENERAL
ADMISSION TICKETHOLDERS who do not have VIP UPGRADE TICKETS or
bought a VIP TABLE. If you bought a General Admission Ticket and have friends who
bought a table or VIP Upgrade Tickets and you wish to enter on the Polk St. side with
them, you have two options: (1) Buy a VIP Upgrade Ticket Now (Purchase Here) or pick
up your NYE General Admission ticket ar our EARLY WILL CALL outlined below.
Bottle Service Ticketholders: To ensure you and your General Admission Ticketholder
guests are all allowed to enter with you on the Polk St. VIP WILL Call side with you,
please have all of your guests pick up their General Admission Tickets at our EARLY

PROPAGANDA #8
IT'S GOING TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO PARK OR GET A CAB FROM CITY HALL!
YOU WON'T FIND PARKING AND YOU WILL BE STRANDED AFTER THE
PARTY! YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GET A CAB MUCH EASIER FROM OUR PARTY.

Our Correction to the Public:


City Hall boasts one of the largest public parking lots underneath the park plaza adjacent
to City Hall with parking lot entrance located on McCallister St. In order to ensure
parking in this lot, we still do advise you arrive early.

For those looking for the ultimate VIP experience, we will also be offering "Valet
Service" on the Polk St. side entrance of City Hall.

New Year's Eve in San Francisco is notoriously known as the worst night of the year to
hail a cab. As for securing a taxi at the end of the night, there is no better, more central
"taxi-heavy" region than the City Hall area where your odds of catching a cab are much
higher. There are no other major restaurants, bars, hotels, or other "major" New Year's
Eve parties in close proximity to City Hall where hundreds of other city patrons will be
spilling out into the streets, chasing and competing for empty cabs against you. Many of
our New Year's Eve party competitors are in heavy restaurant, bar, hotel, and tourist areas
where getting a cab will be next to impossible. So your chances of catching a cab at City
Hall at the end of the night is much higher than the majority of New Year's Eve party
competitors. Whichever New Year's Eve party you are seriously evaluating attending,
please take into deep consideration their location as to the "reality" of what you are facing
if you are depending on a cab ride at the end of the night.

YOU HAVE TO WEAR A TUXEDO TO GO TO THE CITY HALL NEW YEAR'S EVE
PARTY. WE DON'T IMPOSE A STRICT DRESS CODE AT OUR PARTY.

Our Correction to the Public:


Folks. This is City Hall. This is the home of the office of our great Mayor Gavin
Newsom. If you guys don't want to show your respects to our great city by dressing the
part, than New Year's Eve at City Hall might not be the right party for you. However, this
is a "Black Tie Optional" event, not "Black Tie Required". So you don't have to wear a
tux if you don't want to or can't afford to rent one, but we do request that you wear black
suit & tie of some sort.

Ladies: We know all of you are looking for a "great excuse" to go shopping and find the
most "fabulous", most "elegant" dress of your life to dawn at the classiest, most elegant
New Year's Eve party in San Francisco. We also know that our ladies are looking to meet
a nice gentlemen that wants to sport a nice, fashionable suit and tie to show how classy
and refined they truly are. We're not worried about our lady patrons. We know you are all
going to look fabulous.

Gentlemen: Let's "Step It Up" for San Francisco and let's "Step It Up" for our lady guests
that have been shopping and planning their New Year's Eve outfits for months now! And
for all of you boyfriends and husbands out there, nothing turns on your woman more,
than seeing her man dressed to the 9's in a sharp suit. So make her night fellas, suit up.

PROPAGANDA #10
IN THIS HORRIBLE ECONOMY, YOU SHOULD NOT BE SPENDING YOUR
MONEY ON SUCH A FRIVOLOUSLY EXPENSIVE EVENT AS NEW YEAR'S EVE
AT CITY HALL!

Our Correction to the Public:


Against popular belief and what much of the mass media propagates to the public, in my
opinion, in this economic downturn, the worst thing our country can be doing right now
is hording our money. Businesses in San Francisco, from major corporations to the
smallest of the small "Ma & Pa" shops are counting on your business this New Year's.
New Year's Eve Day is one of the most lucrative days of the year for San Francisco.
Every type of business from hotels, to restaurants, to cafes, to hair salons, to nail shops,
to flower shops, to gift and candy stores, to clothing boutiques, to taxi cabs, trolley cars,
and muni buses are counting on your business to make 2008 a profitable year. Due to the
economic downtown, business has slowed in San Francisco and many small business
owners are facing bankruptcy if their prayers aren't answered. People hording their
money out of fear right now of what the future holds and not supporting their fellow
man’s businesses anymore is creating a vicious cycle of more economic downturn to
come for our country. The answer to our country’s economic problem is a very simple
answer: People need to spend more money right now than ever because “Spending is
Giving".

Just like the government bill that dumped $800 billion to give life back to the real estate
market, we as citizens need to take it upon ourselves to support our fellow neighbors and
small business owners by continuing to support their businesses, and by doing so money
will continue to healthily flow through the marketplace and save people's jobs and save
people's businesses. San Francisco was originally based on its individuality and
supporting the local "Ma & Pa" shop over the mass-market franchise store. So I ask you
to take a different perspective on New Year's Eve this year. Rather than view your choice
to stay home this New Year's Eve to save money and be "smart with your money", I
invite you to be a "philanthropist" for an evening and treat yourself and that special
significant other to an amazing evening in San Francisco that you both will never forget.
And by doing so, by staying at a nice hotel, by having a nice dinner somewhere special,
by buying your lady a beautiful evening gown or piece of jewelry to wear that evening,
and by taking a limousine or taxi to your New Year's Eve party of choice, you now have
"given" to dozens of San Francisco local businesses and workers, you have helped save
their businesses and helped save people's jobs, you have put food on people's tables and
helped give hope and new possibilities to underprivileged children from rough city streets
like Hunter's Point in San Francisco where buying a ticket to our New Year's Eve at City
Hall, our charity benefactor "City of Dreams" receives your money to help fund their
education programs to show and teach underprivileged children a better, much more
empowered life. So do you want to "save" this New Year's Eve or do you want to "give"?
The righteous choice is yours.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


ABOUT NEW YEARS EVE @ CITY HALL

What do I get with my General Admission ticket?


General Admission includes entry into the VERY LAST New Year's Eve party ever at
San Francisco's historic City Hall. Access to all the three of the major event rooms inside
City Hall: The main Rotunda Room hosted by DonovanSF & The Spinsters, The Hip
Hop/ Mash Up Room hosted by Mike Fitzgerald & Nate Mezmer, and Live Pop Electro
Room featuring Chris Clouse & Bellstar Records.

General Admission guests will also be front row for the just-added 'New York' style
fashion show featuring the spring collections from world-famous DOLCE & GABBANA
and PRADA (Fashion Show at 10pm sharp in the main Rotunda Room).

General Admission also includes optional Valet Parking, red carpet entrance, memorable
Hollywood style photo-op, the largest bar & bottle service staff, as well as the most dance
floor space of any party in the city, and, of course, a complimentary champagne toast at
midnight!

Party starts at 9:00pm and City Hall will close its doors at 2am.

What do I get if I upgrade to VIP?


After buying your General Admission ticket, you have the option to upgrade to our VIP
status.
Here's what you get in return:

Why is your party not "OPEN BAR" like all of the other New Years Eve parties?

protect you and your guests' safety as well as to ensure a classy, sophisticated New Years
Eve experience for you and your friends. When you purchase a VIP Upgrade Ticket, you
will receive four (4) COMPLIMENTARY top-shelf drinks at the bar. Most people do not
want or need to drink more than 4 cocktails in an entire evening. If someone does wish to
drink more, they certainly are entitled to pay for more drinks at the bar, we simply don't
advocate that. FOR YOU & YOUR FRIENDS' SAFETY, PLEASE DRINK
RESPONSIBLY.

Tell me more about San Francisco City Hall?


San Francisco's City Hall is truly an architectural masterpiece and offers a magical and
intimate setting to help usher in an inspired 2009. The building, created in 1915 during
the brief 'City Beautiful' movement is an awesome work of art and boasts a dome ceiling
structure over 300 feet high - the fifth largest dome in the world. The man behind the
design of this amazing building was none other than the architect Arthur Brown Jr, whom
also designed San Francisco's War Memorial Opera House, Veterans Building, Temple
Emanuel, Coit Tower and the Federal office building at 50 United Nations Plaza.

On New Years Eve we will feature all three major event rooms inside City Hall, the main
Rotunda Room, the South Light Court, the North Light Court, including the 2nd floor
Mezzanine level and "Mayor's lounge" overlooking the Rotunda, as well as a private VIP

at the famous dome ceiling.

Yes. Ticket prices are tiered and will increase as more tickets sell and event date
approaches. Buy your tickets now to avoid high prices and headaches.

will email ticket buyers to inform you about our advance will call schedule. We strongly
recommend that you pick up your tickets in advance to help save you time in line on New
Years Eve.

Do I need to purchase a General Admission ticket in order to purchase a table?

with a VIP table reservation do not need to upgrade to VIP, unless they have more than 6
guests and want VIP entry and access for additional people.

A NEW YEAR'S EVE IN A CLASS ALL ITS OWN

Three of the cities top event producers, Donovan, Nate Mezmer & Mike Fitzgerald, are
joining forces with The Spinsters of San Francisco and SOMA Magazine, to produce the
final New Years Eve party ever at City Hall.

San Francisco’s City Hall is truly an architectural masterpiece and offers a magical
setting to help usher in an inspired 2009. The building, created in 1915 during the brief
“City Beautiful” movement is an awesome work of art and boasts a ceiling structure over
300 feet high - the fifth largest dome in the world – with a comfortable capacity of 3,000
guests.

The night will feature a live fashion show of the Spring 2009 Collections of world-
famous fashion designers Prada and Dolce & Gabbana.
This night will also feature four impressive rooms of music & entertainment:

The Main Rotunda Room hosted by Donovan & The Spinsters of San Francisco with
Sexy, Sophisticated House Music by DJ Donovan and Donovan's #1 resident DJ Hector
Garza. This grand room with its unique and vast dome ceiling view, features access to the
beautiful Mezzanine level and an exclusive section with multiple bars for VIP guests.

The Prada and Dolce & Gabbana Fashion Lounge hosted by SOMA Magazine. This
lounge setting inspired by the designs of Prada and Dolce & Gabbana is located on the
private 4th Floor offering the most breathtaking birds-eye views of the Main Rotunda
Room where DJ Donovan will be performing. After the fashion show, take a closer look
at all of the Prada and Dolce & Gabbana designs from the show available for order right
