^ This is funny and, sadly, true. I try not to judge people too much because I'm all for people going out just to enjoy a party.... but I've got to admit that even I get a little irritated when people are out and about during WMC for only that reason. I think we all hold that week in pretty high regard because of how special it is to have probably the best week of edm in the world righ here on our own soil. So, please, if you are one of these people, at least take a look at the flyer so you know who you're listening to.

Originally posted by Thero40 what condo did you stay at?

Dreamer already answered but, yes, we have stayed at the Opera Tower the last few years. They are privately owned apartments/condos just on the other side of the Venetian Causeway from Ultra. We have been lucky enough to get the same place each year and it is up near the top in the 50s. Up until last year, though, the main stage was facing away from us and all we got was a jumble of music from all over. Last year, however, construction in the park forced Ultra to move things around a bit and the Main Stage was facing us. The ASoT tent was in between, but since it was covered the sound was overpowered by the acts on the main stage. We could hear everything very clearly and see the lights and stuff. After f*ckin around on South Beach most days, we would always come back to the place and catch the final few acts while getting ready and pre-gaming on the balcony. Even aside from our luck, we prefer downtown because of the proximity to the clubs we frequent the most. We can walk to Ice Palace, Space, Parkwest, Vagabond, most of the boats, etc.... South Beach is very convenient for all the pool parties, so I always suggest that first timers try to stay around there at least once. We just don't attend them enough to make it count. Frankly, I'm getting too old to drink all day in the sun and still enjoy the clubs, haha, which is still what I like the most. In addition, downtown lodging is usually quite a bit cheaper, so if you usually find yourself there anyway, it's worth checking out some places. The Tower might even still have openings. Homeaway and Cyberrentals are the best websites and you might even find an owner renting out from elsewhere on the web.

As a sidenote, several people on here can attest to the fact that our place is good for a quick drink on your way to the downtown clubs, so feel free to pm if your interested in meeting up. Haters need not apply.

Think I saw your TA post about pregaming and was going to swing by last year before heading to Space on Friday for Markus Schulz but got sidetracked and didn't make it...

Did you find the Opera Tower rental through one of those sites, or did you have a friend who lives there? If you rented, do you mind sharing what you paid for it? Just trying to get a feel for what the prices are like. Thanks

Was really surprised when I saw this. So disappointed. This was going to be my salvation from all the crowds i expect this year at the other parties. Luckily I'm going to Detroit this year.

I still remember my first Sunday School at Pawn Shop. Literally dancing by myself at 10am and I look to my right at its Richie Hawtin.

"..we won't be hosting Sunday School in Miami this year as we continue to focus our efforts on the Electric Zoo Festival in New York."

Its good to know they've got their priorities straight.

GAY Fucking sell outs. I regret buying EZoo tickets for next year. I'm just going to sell that shit.

I hope all that extra money and focus goes towards the sunday school tent. But I have a feeling it will probably go towards the main stage or a brostep stage.

really wack made event isent doing sunday school or any parties at all
back in the day they used to own wmc

as for wmc as a whole iam not going this year, but even when i went last year it just had a different feeling, much more commercial,everything and everyone is seperated...who can throw the biggest and best party,overpriced tickets,fan boys etc etc
in 2010 i had a blast but last year and now the look so far of this year looks like wmc is going down the tubes

You just have to know what parties to go to

lol yea i made a mistake last year of going to some crappy parties
but iam saying as a whole the wmc is just getting more commercial

Electronic music is getting more commercial in the States in general. I don't think its necessarily a bad thing. You just have to sift through more crap to find good stuff. But I think there will be more good stuff underneath that crap. The commercial djs are usually the ones that get people into the genre anyway. Armin van Buuren and Ferry Corsten got me into electronic music lol.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone else to step in and make another sunday school like event. You know there's demand for it so if you have the resources why not do it.

I got this from the Florida board. Mansion's new look and motto. "DJs are the new rock stars."

Looks like the Circo Loco party it will be for me this year if there is no Sunday School. Hopefully there is a Drum Code and Minus party as well. And let's go crazy, but highly unlikely, since Ultra as the Cocoon tent.

kinda sound like me, except my wmc years were 02-06 and when the following things no longer existed down I decided to stop going

1 - RADIO 1 FRIDAY PARTY was always free, ALWAYS! This was the party to be at, not ultra, this party kicked off WMC. It was THE PARTY to go to in Miami.
2 - Ultra moved from BAYFRONT to BICENTENNIAL. Anyone who experienced a BAYFRONT ultra knows how awesome it was, so many chill areas not many 'VIP' areas and the tickets were cheap!
3 - TWILO'S PHAZON TENT closed down

I preferred Sunday School in the PAWN SHOP, I spent a bunch of hours inside that school bus, I liked the inside/outside feel.

Those days are long gone, sad to say it but like most things nothing great lasts forever.

BTW - We used to pay $35 for a mojito pitcher with 10 straws in it at nikki beach, I wonder what that goes for now. LOL

PM'd

Found it on homeaway originally and now just contact the owner directly. Prices around there have gone up in the last few years. I think owners started wising up to the demand. Still, can't beat the location for our needs. Hotels in South Beach are crazy expensive for what you get. Try looking farther north cause hotels above 40th are usually way cheaper than those below 20th. Taxi and bus options are available for getting around.

any of you guys selling any extra ultra tickets???

Probably, but I don't have them in possession yet and I'm waiting to hear what replaces Sunday School, but I'm 99% sure I'm getting rid of my 2 sets of passes.

Mystery Sounds presents Tytanium Sessions Yacht Party feat Sean Tyas & Menno de Jong


In a place filled with fun and sun during a time when electronic music reverberates through the air, Mystery Sounds is proud to bring you a yacht party not to be missed. Join nearly 400 party goers as we welcome trance superstar Sean Tyas aboard the Musette for an afternoon of musical destruction. Needing no introduction in the states or abroad, the New York native will bring his special brand of trance to the waters of Miami with the same passion that has driven his rise in the genre and has led to the development of his own record label, Tytanium Recordings. Tyas is sure to exhibit the skills that have made his radio show a highlight for any serious dance music fan.

Tyas will be joined on board by another mainstay in the trance genre, Menno de Jong. Founder of his own Intuition label and radio show, the Dutch dj has cris-crossed the globe countless times to bring his euphoric beats to the masses. His productions and remixes are always on heavy rotation with edm fans, and a unique appearance on the open sea will be the perfect showcase for Menno's talents.

Yacht parties during this week of madness are notorious for selling out and this one will be no different. Prices will go up so grab your tickets and prepare yourself mentally and physically for one unforgettable cruise.

Boarding begins promptly at 12 noon and boat will leave no later than 1pm. Get there early for id and ticket check.

Drinks will be available for purchase on board.
