This mayhem was brought to you by Taboo.Forget Fergie and will.i.am, the Black Eyed Pea that doesn’t get enough recognition is Taboo. It was he, not one of the more famous Peas, that got a crowd of hundreds, packed into the main room of Trinity, pumping their fists in unison and shouting the lyrics to “Imma Be” as confetti canons shot shining paper into the air at 1:30 this morning. After parties are a strange phenomenon. You never quite know who will show up and what they may or may not do. The Peas were wrapping up at the Tacoma Dome while fans in Seattle were having photos taken with the group’s likeness, courtesy of Bacardi, and jostling to get a place near the booth where DJ Guy kept the energy high with house and electronica. As midnight approached, down the hall in Trinity’s Card Room lounge, a bachelorette and friends were showing signs of a long, boozy night–slurring words and snipping at each other. “Do you know if the Peas will be here soon?” the bride-to-be shouted. She and her friends had no idea the party was coming when they picked the Pioneer Square nightclub for their revelry. And they were determined to stay, but that was becoming a chore.Around 1 a.m. their patience was rewarded when the MC called out from the main room. “The Black Eyed Peas are in the house!”Before he’d finished, the crowd roared and minutes later, Taboo and apl.de.ap came bursting into the DJ booth. apl.de.ap took over the music and Taboo pumped up the crowd. “Raise your fist!” he commanded, and they didn’t hesitate.About 15 minutes later, the MC was back: “will.i.am is in the house!” More frantic cheers from the crowd now packed so tightly as to make the large main room one giant mosh pit. That tiny little dot? That’s him!But the most will.i.am offered (at least up to the last ten minutes when I left hoping to beat the inevitable stream of intoxicated drivers at last call) was the occasional grinning shimmy in the DJ booth to cheers from his adoring fans. At some point in the night Ludacris also arrived, giving up a raucous two-minute mini-performance from the steps down to the booth before disappearing back into the VIP lounge.It is just an after party, of course. will.i.am and Co. had earned a post-performance break. But Taboo made it a fest for the fans who had braved a line that wound past an unfortunate puke puddle to get into Trinity. With a huge assist from apl.de.ap, who kept the tunes coming, Taboo regularly bounced back into the booth from the VIP lounge to get people whipped back into a frenzy and lead them in sing-a-longs of their favorite Peas anthems. Forget Fergie, imma be totally impressed with Taboo.
