And we are going to build up to a big announcement that day that will change the face of SESSIONS forever. I would like to thank people here and abroad that have helped make SESSIONS a huge success over the years, but especially the last 5 months. I am still excited about the reformed and revitalized Basement Music Works Group and the talent that the DJs have brought to the table. SESSIONS has been a part of Halcyon's history since September 30th 2002 and has featured NYC's best DJs spinning every genre of music. The list is literally a who's who:
