I just got hoem from seeing Grayarea. "Freaks 3" was the party.. it had Grayarea, Ming & FS, and A shitload of locals. I parked onm the road behind the party, and as I was walkingf to the venue some big woman on the sidewalk shouted "Are you going that rave?!"
Me:"Sure am"
Biggin: "Well you better watch out when you leave, because I'm oing to rape you!"
Me: "I cant wait!"
Whale: "I'm serious! I'm going to fuck the hell out of you!"
Me: "I am too, I'll bring the rubber!"
So I get to the party, and I get in free because I know a few the DJs playing. I'm oin call all week for work, so going ot the party was a gamble since I could ge ta call from Spain, China, the Philippines, etc at any time (since they're halfwya across the world, wide awake). I'm at the party for an hour and I run into my ex-girlfriend... crazy chick. "Earth chick," as I usually refer to her. She's the type of chick that runs around every parthy with no shoes on (seriously, she never wears shoes). you can only imagine how I came up her nickname.
So I talk with her for a while and ifnd out that she's not with her boyfriend anymore (helllllllyeah), then Grayarea comes on. We go to the stage and start listening, and they threw down th ebest live set that I've heard in a loong time. You know, there aren't many big Djs that come to Kansas city, so when I heard that Grayarea was in town (3 hours before the party started) I was all about getting there. They played some fucking badass songs... remixes of Nine Inch Nails, a LOT of original tracks that I recognized, and they were all rotating on the guitar, drum pads, and microphone, doing their whole "live act " thing.
They fucking rocked the house... then Ming & FS came on after only an hour. grayarea wasn't playing NEarly enough time, but oh well. I haven't heard anything from Ming & FS in a long time, so I was ready to hear them. After they finally came on, they started playing some hip hop shit (!). I was DEFINITELY not expecting any hiphop, but at least it flowed... and I was drunk. So it was bearable, at least.
Then... it got old. quick. There's only so much hiphop you can take before you want to kill someone. It was a costume party, and there were a lot of crazily-dressed people... I saw Kermit & Piggy, some nekkid chick with paint on her nipples, a dude dressed as the guy from Fear & Loathing (He got me best-of vote), etc. I eventually left, because it turned into shit. Alll the costumed people that "thought" they could dance jumped onto the stage with Ming & FS and started "dancing," and it just plain got weird. Like Eminem's 8 Mile weird... so started to head out when I ran into Nosmo (from Grayarea).
Grayarea was here about 8 months ago and I talked ot Nosmo and Ruin for a looong time... so when I bumped into him today I (naturallty) started talking to him. Introduced myself, he remembered me from last time. Asked if he recorded the set because I wanted to get it on [ms] (shameless [ms] plug), he said no but he wished he had because he was real pleased with it. Chatted a while longer and that was that.
I drove 5 blocks home, and here I am. All in all I had a great time, of course Grayarea rocked the house again. It's been probably 6 months since I'd been out to a party, and it was more than overdue. Glad I went, and Idefinitely recommend anyone see Grayarea.
Now it' stime to get my corndogs out of the oven, so I'm out!
