it was good meeting everybody! skahound, jibgolly, rubyraks, remoh, code11, neoee, evangelion, shawna, Localizer, ubiqe, matt, ftc, chuckc... am I missing anybody else? a little disappointed I didn't get to see Jenks, but he was probably avoiding me anyways.
ska, hope I wasn't too much for ya. also hope the coughing didn't keep you awake. :? it was definitely a good time though.
Hallucination was great. Looooots of great, dark twisted music was played... and even better, it was across the street from our hotel. I went to the hotel to sleep for 3 hours, then showed back up at the party at 8am and it was still going strong. Ran into Fortier at about 10am and he said he was way too drunk/tired to play at his gig at 3pm later that day.
Wanted to check Menace to Sobriety out for the Lowend Specialists, but found out that it was cancelled. Pretty shitty, considering Fortier wasn't playing that day either. Ended up heading to the beach for a day of fun in the sun before checking the Proton party for a bit, and finally ended up at the LMR Records party with Sander, Fanciulli, Dekay, Hamel, & Jamieson. Hamel and Fanciulli rocked it, and Sander was good until the last half of his set where he started playing bad 80's shit... was probably getting it ready for Dekay, and I wasn't about to stay for that shit so I kicked out of there just before he came on.
Wanted to check the BBC Radio 1 Nikki Beach party pretty bad... but it was a huge lineup and a free party, so the line was fucking INSANE. Rubyraks said he waited in line for something like 2 hours and expected at least another hour to get in. Ska and I definitely didn't want to do that, so we headed around back to check the party, caught a cab back to the hotel, and waved at ruby as he was walking down the street away from the party. sucker!
Went to Porterhouse for a little while, but had to jump out of there pretty quick. Whoever was opening the party was playing some horrible retro crap. We booked out of there and went to Loaded where the music was muuuuch, much better.
Stopped by the frisky party for a bit, and it was cool. not many people were there when we stopped by, but the music was definitely good. Wish I knew what DJ was playing when we showed, he must've been the first or second one on the lineup.
The Spleen Records party was awesome. Went there with ska & Matt, chilled for a bit, and Matt and I decided we needed some liquor. Went to the liquor store and bought a gallon(?) of pre-made jose cuervo Margarita mix, stopped by the hotel and drank some, filled my gatorade bottle with margarita and booked it back to the hotel to meet up with the rest of the gang. I got to the party and was being told I couldn't get in with my gatorade bottle, so I started chugging. then ftc appeared and we chatted for a few mins, and I was finally let in... after drinking practically all but 3 drinks of that gatorade bottle of margarita. would've been nice to not have chugged it first, but it's all good. i was planning on drinking it regardless.
The AA Arena party was great. Hernan was spinning with Zabiela doing effects during the whole set. The music was awesome. Unkle/Lavelle came on, and fucking sucked. The music sucked, and I don't think I even heard any mixing. He just plain blew. FUCKING HORRIBLE! You can't really put words to a set like that. After that Sasha & Digweed came on, the party was bumping all night. About 15-30 minutes before the party ended it started to get pretty trancey, but it was a good night. Too many fucking e-tards, though. saw a few people handcuffed & escorted, and at one point was playing tug-of-war with an e-tard and his glowstick so I could chuck it across the arena, but I eventually gave up, and he left so the mission was accomplished there
next year I'm definitely going to hit up a liquor store every day I'm there and not even *try* to buy drinks at the bar. learned a few hard lessons at nearly every bar I went to with the $9/$10 drinks everywhere! fuck that.
good times, good times. see everyone there again next year.
Im still recovering... HUGE thanks to all that made it out to the frisky party on Sat.
frisky, I made it there earlier during the day with skahound... I haven't seen a picture of you in years, but I swear I was sitting across from you for about an hour while chilling to the music. guess I should've introduced myself, but I'm lazy.
DUDE!!! Shame on you bro! I had frisky T-shirts to give away to all my peeps. If you had introduced yourself, you would have got one. But you didnt, so you aint got one! ;-)
my highlight was the underwater party at crobar with darren emerson. i saw pig & dan at bed, lawler at state, desyn at space, nic and john d at pawn shop, behrouz, mazi & tripwire at teasers just to name a few.... but, once again, emerson OWNED the conference for me the 2nd time in a row. i'm talkin' dark, evil, twisted, distorted and nasty tech-house that just blew me the fuck away. better than lawler at lights out imo... holy mother of god!
yeah, that was definitely you. I could've had a free tee :cry:
oh well. I was wearing a black "Raves Suck" tee. next year I'll hit you up for two shirts
who was playing during the first few hours of the party? whoever was playing while I was there was rocking it... didn't see a lineup posted.
DUDE!!! You suck for posting that pic... I hate the pic!!! That picture is from our Winamp 5.0 release party, where I got TOTALLY PLASTERED!!!!!!!! FUCK that was a good party!!!
Yea, You were probably there when the tribal madness was going on. El Reyalto tag teaming with Jaimy (of Fatalmusic out of The Neatherlands)...
f.
Actually Nic didn't end up playing that party, Jimmy van M opened for Digweed.
@ Frisky: I was at your party with pickle and have to tell you that it was definitely one of the coolest. Very chill, very quaint, nice sound, GREAT tunes from El Reyalto (I told several people that I had to find out who he was and see if he had a mix CD or something because he was throwing down some phenomenal chugging tribal while we were there). And dammit, it was you we were sitting across from, pickle and I sat there for a good hour or so drinking our Monster (free on every street corner all week) and rocking out. I saw you handing out t's to some guys that walked in and saw a ton of boxes up there but definitely didn't feel cool enough to ask how much they were. Would've loved to be able to show my support around Orlando. Anyhow, thanks again for a great time.
@ James Lavelle: How many dicks did you suck to get 2 GU compilations? Normally I don't bad mouth or rant about a particular performance, but if there has ever been one that deserves it, it's Lavelle's set from Sat night. The ENTIRE dancefloor came to a standstill. There were thousands of people booing and it made it even worse that he was fading tracks in and out. As the boos got louder he put up his finger as if to say "Wait just a minute", faded out the track that was on (all of which had NO beat) and then started 'Reign' thinking he could save himself. Granted people started to dance, but by this point the buzz that I did have was most surely gone. Cheers to Hernan & James and John & Sasha for great performances. But mad disappointment in Lavelle and the entire arena, lighting, disorganization, sound, etc at the venue.
A good shower head and my right hand - the two best lovers that I ever had.
^^^ ahh, that sucks, i got there in the middle of digweed's set... wanted to get there earlier to hear fanciulli.. ahh well... how was van m's set? we saw van m arriving (i'm assuming coming back) as we were leaving... he was just god awful wasted. he looked more fucked up than anyone in there that night.. lol.
I thought it was great,just sucked that once you were in ,you had to stay it no coming in and out that part sucked.but in all it was good i just stayed out side of it untill it got kooler then went in. the after party was a LOt Better two me and ice cold Sasa,Digweed Kicked Ass
Enjoy Life as you only Live Once So enjoy it :WinkNSmile:

Dude, you should have def asked me to for the T-shirts. Anyways, the T-shirts go on sale on the new site when its launched in a few days... So you can pick one up! Def helps to keep frisky on the air.
About ElReyalto, he is the host of a weekly show on friskyRadio: Tech Coast Tribal every Friday at 1PM PST. The guy that they were tag teaming with, Jaimy (http://www.fatal-music.com/), has a monthly residency on the show so definetely check it out on fridays! Wicked Tribal sounds to get the weekend started IMO! And yea, he does have a new WMC promo out... Check out his site: http://sugarantinvasion.com/ and download the new promo.
