well here we are again guys. our third attempt at having this party. the 2004 and 2005 hurricanes have postponed this party a few times, but there is no stopping us this time! we will have this party if it blows us away (pun intended :p)

our very own user 'THE_LIGHT' (hafid atzel) is the gracious host with the most for this shindig, and with a little help from mother nature, we'll have a right good time. there is no time limit on this party, so its going to last as long as i can stand on my feet. but i've been known to crouch down on my knees and keep spinning til the late hours of the afternoon so NO HOLDS BARRED, we're gettin it on!

a little background info on the conception of this party... hafid and friends had a rough 2004 hurricane season when Ivan rolled through and leveled their town. so they decided to ask me to come play for them. well at the time i lived in atlanta and asked my good friend Garrick to join me. as we were set to have this party around july (?) hurricane Dennis rolled through and blew it for us. so we planned it again for labor day weekend and hurricane Katrina fucked that up real good. well this is the third attempt and i'll be damned if some wind is gonna stop us this time. :twisted:

for any info or directions please send Hafid an email: [EMAIL="hafidatzel@hotmail.com"]hafidatzel@hotmail.com[/EMAIL] or you can contact me, the jibster: [EMAIL="sjames64@hotmail.com"]sjames64@hotmail.com[/EMAIL]

you know what they say... the 3rd times a charm. :p

----------------------------_

BIG BIG thx to [COLOR=Blue]yao[/COLOR] for the flyer!!! email him your respect at: [email]mawuli@gmail.com[/email] or visit his site at: [url]www.blowkick.com[/url]

Ok, Garrick first things first! Get the gas thing under control, its like a 4 hour drive to P-Cola and I'm not riding with some stinky MOFO. Second lets all say a short prayer for this one to go down without Mother nature throwin in the proverbial Monkey Wrench! Now lets hear some music damn-it!

Re: Steve James & Garrick Ulrich in Pensacola, FL (Nov 12)

i hate being at work right now... was well worth it though.

started off with us getting to kevin's house and eating some good ol' bbq and setting up equipment. the dj booth was fucking ROCK SOLID. well build, haf. you and your boy did a great job with "the alter". we had sound problems (sorry guys, we couldn't record like we originally wanted) until about 12:30 at which point we finally fixed and Hafid hopped on the decks and played a very good set. he used almost all vinyl too, which was nice to see. those pensicola boys still use a lot of vinyl. impressive! around 1:30, i hopped on and played for about an hour and started off with some chunky, techy stuff and then let steve hop on for about an hour and let him rip it wide open. he also played some chunky dirty beats that had the place bumpin up and down. after his hour, i went back on for about 90 minutes and worked into some of the more typical "me" sound. the atmosphere at 3:30am was even crazier than it was at 1am. the house was packed, the front yard was packed and the patio was packed and people were dancing the ir fucking asses off! fuck man, the roof was even packed.

but that was nothing........ steve hopped on again after me and the machine (as i will now refer to him) played for another 3.5 hours until it was solid daylight outside. as the night wore on, he got sweatier, drunker and paler. he looked like casper when he finally got off around 8:30am and i went back on for another hour after that to wrap things up and give my boy "the machine" a break....... yes, people were still dancing until we left. who knows if it is still going on :)

overall great time and great people. thanks again haf, for your hospitality and for a great time. p-cola is on my map to visit again.

Re: Steve James & Garrick Ulrich in Pensacola, FL (Nov 12)

nice review garrick. :shock: my brain is still a little skewered after that party... hafid atzel.. the host with the most! had a fuckin blast man, and cant wait to come back. those pensacola boys are some weathered partiers. felt right at home there.

shame we couldnt record, but i assure everyone we made every possible effort. :( we couldnt get a good signal on the pc and when we tried the mac, the levels we're severely unbalanced bu by then we had been at it for 2 hours and said fuck it, the party must start. and so it began....

Re: Steve James & Garrick Ulrich in Pensacola, FL (Nov 12)

Hey hey, guys!! :Howdy:

Just wanted to drop in say THANK YOU for coming and spending the weekend with us! It was really great to meet all of you, and everyone laid it down that night. Not many people can just jump into our crowd over at K-Rock's but you guys fit right in! :D

I'm really sorry that I left without properly saying goodbye. I planned on coming back later, but I just wasn't up for it. Hafid can tell you ... normally I'm much more of a tropper. I wish I had gotten my game face on like most everyone else, but I probably would've been there until Monday if I did that. haha.

Garrick, Ken, Steve ... it was really nice to meet all of you and I hope that you can all make it back very soon. I think Hafid's already working on that. 8)

much love!

Re: Steve James & Garrick Ulrich in Pensacola, FL (Nov 12)

hi megan. pleasure meeting you as well. we met so many people its hard to remember them all. i remember running in to you at some point that night, maybe somewhere during the beer to vodka upgrade? i dunno for sure. kevin was great. feeding us that awesome bbq before the music got rolling. helping with any audio problems we had. he spent nearly an hour under the entertainment center fixing wires. amazing hospitality in penscola. honestly still buzzing from the vibe of that party this far in the week and really cant wait to make it back up there.
