well, there wasn't really an "after-party", just this guy we know supposedly taking them and their gay roommate either home or to his place.
and it's ok, we're throwing a big EDM party next week and i'm spinning, so all chicks will be mine.
and it's ok, i'm sitting here feeling all proud of myself for not taking advantage of the drunk girls who probably wouldn't like me when they're sober. and taking advantage of them against their will, that's repulsive to me!

actually, i'm not planning to interact with the crowd at all.
all i want, for once in my life, is for someone to not FUCK with the music constantly, not change it every 30 seconds. so it's my way or fuck off. i mean, i won't be the only one djing, but my roomie says he doesn't want to bother with music anymore, partly for that same reason, so he's gonna be dancing most of the time. and everybody organizing this doesn't want people to fuck with the music either.
my other dj friend will be helping me but he's not into traktor and all.
we'll see how it goes. we just want to eventually play some psy, like we did last year, and just jump around to it with the crowd. so my goal is to play some loud music and jump a lot. chicks, well, judging by our record, let's just hope it won't be yet another sausage fest

I think this video pretty much sums up everyone's feelings on house parties.

thanks! UMass Amherst.
my roommate, I, and our mutual friend all had a simultaneous, independent idea of throwing a rave. yes, an actual RAVE with glowsticks, parachute pants, bracelets, visors, candy, and PLUR. but, there's no place for it - i don't think anyone would be willing to rent us a barn even though there are tons of them around here.
so this is a mini-rave, still with glowsticks, strobe lights, but just to see how people respond to the music.

Sweet. I've done that before, I think it was actually one of my better gigs
This was like 4 years ago, a buddy of mine had a friend who's house had a small airplane hangar attached to it HIS friend's band practiced there all the time and one time he just threw this huge party and I spun there. It was pretty sweet.

/me is virtually masturbating to the fact that we can define a set that contains all sets that don't contain themselves.

I think I'm going to do Delerium, today. I'll listen to everything they ever produced and let you know later what my favorite tracks are because I know you're all dying to know this.
I'm going to fire myself from my job. I've gotten soooooo lazy. I think I'm getting discouraged because imo, I should be home relaxing and getting some hot sex and playing piano and drawing pretty flowers and writing silly poems and cooking for my grandmother instead of analysing changes in soil or changes in vegetation or changes in the atmosphere or looking for water or counting sheeps...
aaaaaaaaaackackackackaaaaaaaaaack

you know, if you ever wanna get a job using your degree, you will be doing the same thing you are doing now....but all the time.
I think you should get hitched to a rich man or woman so you can slack off the rest of your life Posted by Echo of Silence on Mar-02-2007 17:39:

sweet mother of jesus.
aite, i'm finally ready to talk about it -
start time was at 11, we finished setting up at 10 - put padding foam in the windows, etc. had 2 sets of speakers but at full volume they still sounded like crap.
invited like 70 people, expecting 30 to show up at most (we had a 40-people capacity, 50 if crowded), didn't know at all how'd it go.
in the end, there were probably up to 45 people at one time dancing in the room and people were constantly going in and out. we thought people would hate EDM, so we wanted to start with reggae / french hip-hop, then pop trance (like sandstorm, atb, etc.), then reggae again, pop trance again, and harder stuff.
there was this girl who always nags us about music, and she followed me repeating "tiesto traffic, tiesto traffic". so when robert told me to start the 'pop trance' mix with traffic, i accidentally put the wrong remix of it (walden) cuz i thought the original was too cheesy.
the people went absolutely nuts! by the time i got through transa's remix of "sparkles" i was going deaf from people yelling and whistling, they were jumping so hard, i had to hold the lcd monitor so that it wouldn't tip over.
everyone absolutely loved the glowsticks, the buildups, i even managed to play a psy tune!
eventually, we got shut down by the cops at around 3 in the morning, most likely because of people smoking and being loud outside, and everybody's saying this was the most amazing party they've ever been to at umass. we chilled a little bit afterwards and basically i went to bed at 6.

heh, i was gonna post some and then got distracted:
what a classy sign
a bunch of my friends going nuts (i'm djing somewhere by the open door)
a bunch of people i sort of know going nuts
mmm cute asians
that's me djing in teh corner
no idea who they are but cool pic with the strobe light
my bros! my former roommate, my excellent co-host buddy andrey (another one), and vova!
craziness. note the foam in trashbags inbetween the window glass panels.
unfortunately, i did not get to dance with her, but maybe next week i'll hang out with her
random people were making out
heh that's SOBE he's drinking
awesome pic imo. guess who that is on the left.
rofl at this one. my flatmate is molesting andrey and i'm like "PUMP IT UP, BITCHES"
i think we put some reggae on to test it out and people didn't like it, so i was all "WTF IS WRONG WITH THE MUSIC"
mr. DJ
and the best two pictures are of Robert, my flatmate, and our friend Stefan, both going nuts; these EXACTLY show what the party was like:
the time passed for me like crazy, i had so much fun spinning, so gratifying to hear 30+ people yell like crazy. there's more on my facebook i guess but they're not that good. i got a couple short vids i might upload later, but they suck.
