A Pinterhouse Fit for the End of the World

Page Hovse kicked off Interhouse season with a full-throttle throwback to the year 2000—back when the world braced for computer doom and dial-up tones counted as much. Announced with the immortal words, “Before tariffs, TikTok, and Taylor, AI, Apple, and the Avengers, it was… Y2K” (and signed, in true Page fashion, “It’s Pinterhouse, bitch — James R. Page”), the party transformed Page Courtyard into a neon-lit crash site of pre-millennial nostalgia.

A raised DJ platform, painted with monochrome stripes and glowing under blue and magenta lights, stood above a packed crowd, pulsing to period-appropriate pop and attendant remixes. Page undoubtedly set the tone for the season: loud, chaotic, and unapologetically fun.

Y2K survived. So did the dance floor.
