Oh man, what a night.

A big, big thank you goes out to everyone who turned out for the second annual Guilty Pleasures Party last Friday at the Yakima Sports Center -- and to those who were patient in the bar line.

It made Guilty Pleasures proud to see all your deep, dark secret enjoyments boasted proudly on stickers that declared, "Hello My guilty pleasures is."

Admissions included:

* Velveeta.

* Nerds & Geeks.

* Grand Theft Auto.

* Mechanical bull-riding.

* Tall chicks.

* Corn dogs for breakfast.

* "The Golden Girls." (For a second year in a row.)

* Your mom. (Always a popular one.)

Guilty Pleasures also wants to give a round of applause to the great performances by Bryn Loosley -- that "Night Moves" cover was incredible -- Colin Spring, and the amazing Chuck Prophet, who was kind enough to let Guilty Pleasures (who at that point, was perhaps a bit slurrish) snag a photo with him.

Of course, thanks to the Yakima Sports Center for letting On magazine and Guilty Pleasures once again "officially" take over your fine establishment for a night.

And lastly, thanks to Yakima Herald-Republic photographer Andy Sawyer for manning the photo booth and making sure we'd all have at least some kind of memory of the party.

* Guilty Pleasures is a weekly look at whatever Guilty Pleasures wants to look at. And once a year, it's a party.
