Re: How was WMC??
hey tonight ill post my pics and vids on my friends webspace... so tune back in later bitches!!!...
one thing i have to say though... (well more than one)
this year i was all prepared to go to the wmc months in advance..i had plane tickets, hotel rooms, car rental and presales bought as far as 2 months in advance. well this year everything that could've went wrong did.
got there wednesday after dealing with florida turnpike traffic for 5.5 hrs (drove from orlando)... got to club space to redeem my passport and willcall was closed. i figured since im staying on SoBe i'll just redeem it at club spin (space sister club later) checked in to the richmond. it was real nice which was surprising. got a nap in and went to lawler at club state. didn't have a problem getting my will calls there. the club was extremely packed and extremely hot and humid. you could literally cut the air. lawler was banging it out when we got there at 1am (missed clive henry which was a real bummer). he was playing acid house. that was a surprise to me, but oh well it sounded real good. he switched it towards the end to some deep progressive/bit tribal/bit acid beats. we left at around 4 am hoping to see morillo afterhours at the club space terrace. didn't happen. i was so fucking wasted that i could barely stand. then like a drunk a-hole i picked a fight with my girl. fight lasted for ever so i got pissed and went and slept on the beach. btw dont remember the fight or leaving the room. all i know is that i woke up fully dressed on the beach :oops: ..that pick of that guy was probably me.got up at around eleven sorrounded by people :oops: :oops: :oops: and did the walk of shame back to the room.
when i got to the room we made peace and decided that thursday was going to be a banging night.
i heard morillo was so fucked up from partying that he wrecked every mix. he played mostly remixes. i have a friend who went with 2 of his friends and paid 1000 $ for the 3 of them to get in. another friend had to pay 280 to get 2 people into the terrace. they closed the terrace off from the main room at 6am everyday.
thursday. after the drama was over i decided to go to the local record store to listen to some breakthrough wmc track (last year i loaded up with about 30 banging tracks) . most of the records on the wall i had already (the ones i cared about anyway), records topped out at 13.99 for newer imports :roll: .way to much fucking money.went to clubspin to redeem my space pass and they told me to come back later.
thursday night was meet up night at the LMR record label party at club spin. cool im ready. we get to the place at around 12am and waited in line for about a half hour. the lady at the front door told me my printout was no good. she said i had to redeem my pass at space. i pleaded with hear saying that the website said redeemable at either club, but she wasn't having it. so i left and took another nap before roger sanchez afterhours at space.
got there at about 430am. roger had lisa pure singing and he dropped a good tribal house/tribal/house/ classics set.deep dish, pablo ceballos and berhuz were all partying in the vip area and kept giving roger props. i got a vid of ali and sharam going in the booth and jumping up and down with roger. at around 930 in the morning some dumb bimbo trips over me and falls into me, i kind of grabed her arm and smiled signaling it was ok. well my girl flipped and accused me of hitting on the chick.so we got into another huge fight. another ruined night.
we got to the room and i left to go to the nikki beach radio 1 party. i got there and the line was huge. i saw some people go under a fence, so i followed.. got there on zabielas last song. saw ali drop a cool little set. meanwhile my girl is blowing up my phone. i finally answered and she said she was outside and that i had her ID. i tried to get her to come around the back fence but by that time there was tons of security posted. so i had to walk out. her id was in the room so we had to leave :( .. cool little party but it was at capacity since it opened pretty much.........
this is getting long, but hey you guys wanted to get a feel for my experience right??
anyway friday night comes and we are amped for sander k (his sets have been memorable the last 2 conferences) we get there at around 2am with our passes in hand. the line was ridiculous. every person on it had a pass or a presale and they werent let in because the place was at capacity. basicaly they oversold the place by 100%. we waited in line for 3 hrs!!! :shock: . hey i flew all thge way to florida and spent all this money to see these guys so i waited. finally got in aat around 5am.. sander was playing acid house. his set sounded just like lawlers. after a couple of hours he swithced it to electro clash (eighties samples and remixes, not to be confuses with electro= robot and computerized sound effects).. the music was good, but again not what i was expecting. he then played some funky/ bit proggy/bit acid stuff and then he went back to tribal. we left at around 10am..decent night though.
saturday night. still havent met any [ms]ers so i texted ska and he said they were all going to the spleen records party. i got to meet code11, chuckc,ftc,ska,margaritamonkey,shawna,rubyraks (who i met at the nikki beach line) , so that was pretty cool. stayed there till about 7pm and headed back to the hotel to meet up with dvs to sell him carl cox tickets for crobar. get to crobar at around 9 and waited for the stupid people there to figure out which way was up :roll: .
saturday night was bound to be awesome. we were going to see chus and cebalos/dj vibe/ vic calderone and the we were going to see deep dish afterhours. we get to the wherehouse. shittiest club in miami. its a black box dark as fuck. we make our way to the dancefloor and my girl starts having a panic attack. turns out her stigmatism makes light burn images in her eye completely blindidng her . i had to walk her to the door. meanwhile c&c are starting. OMFG they were playing the hardest sickest tribal beats ive heard.. the whole time im trying to figure a way for her to make it to the dancefloor or somewhere near without freaking out. we tried standing her in different places getting her shades, but nothing worked. so i pretty much stood by the door for 1.5 hours. i was so frustrated but said fuck it lets go next door see deep dish.
we got to space and the line was insane, but for some reason we walked right in with our pass. OMFG ali was playing the hardest fucking music. unbeliavable.hardest i've ever seen him play. at this point we are exhausted (word of the wmc05) and we cant really stay awake. we decided to wait for sharam to see if he redeems himself from the shiity vegas set. boy did he ever!! the music he was playing was some of the best stuff i ever heard him play..we only lasted 1 more hour and we left :cry: .
not everything was bad
got to meet the [ms] bitches and fullfilled 2 promises: bought pickle and ska a bear. made a sign for MJ
got an [ms] shirt . great shirts!!
they fucked up my 5 day pass at space and gave me 2 3day passes wich i sold and made up the difference.
saw my family in orlando
overall
the year of acid IMO
miami people just dont give a fuck about your problems ,questions or concerns.
miami people are very rude and disrespecfull (from my experience, noticed that before but this year was topps)
get your preasalesdelivered to your house.
they dont really care if you have a presale you still have to wait (this is a first)
spring breakers clutter the city and clubs.
anyway sorry it was so long
