DAILY FIX: RVAlution Summer 2012 PhotoAnimation

by | May 15, 2012 | MUSIC

The summer 2012 season of RVAlution started last Tuesday, and Todd Raviotta was on the scene, documenting the wild and crazy times that went on. In addition to great tunes being spun all night from DJ Doddie of Audio Ammo and PLF DJs Reinhold and MTK, the Party Liberation Front crew was on-hand, engaging in all sorts of antics to get the crowd hyped up! Bellydancing, acrobatics, hooping, and even fire-eating were all happening onstage that night, and Todd caught it all, as you can see in the video below!
