somebody needs to rent Dumb & Dumber and watch it until he is familiar with every single line in that movie...namely, the one i quoted in my post.
=\ internet sarcasm strikes again!
Harry: So you got fired today?
Lloyd: Yeah, they always freak out when you leave the scene of an accident.
Harry: I lost my job today too.
Lloyd: Man, you are one pathetic loser. No offense.
Harry: Oh, none taken. But you know the thing that burns me though? I spent my entire life savings changing my van into a dog.
Lloyd: It's alright, Har. Chicks love it. It's a shaggin' wagon.

My story was that I wasn't gonna go up until the same week as the event. Friends who were "newbs" wanted me to take them and offered to pay for my ticket/party accessories and free ride down and hotel stay that night. I really couldn't say no could I?
My friends flew in from chicago late fri night and we get down to miami saturday at 3:30pm, i'm tryin to tighten them up and we get told by the hotel that they overbooked the rooms and they didnt have one for us. I kept everyone calm and managed to get the guy to get us a room at a hotel across the street and quickly got over there, changed and dipped out.
Arrived at like 5pm, but wanted to be there a lil earlier since this was the only thing we were doing for the weekend. Went str8 to the middle of the main stage and ran into some south american cats. We were dancing and having a good time and I saw 1 dude really FUBAR and dancing, but no sweating. I know when peeps are dehydrated and I gave him a water and told him to down it and chill out for a few mins. He did, and comes up to me a lil bit later and asks if the chick i was with was my girl. I told him no but i'm workin on it and he split a bean in half and said "half her, half you. Work good!". What a great trade for a water. So i kept calling out songs/mixes/dancing and had everyone around me getting along really well and making good space for my people. I'm the guy tryin to keep some order on the dancefloor and make sure the women are up front and nobody is outta hand. Well as were chillin the same S.American cat comes up to me with a Bullet(YayoBullet) and keeps saying some shit i didnt understand. Now i'm not big into getting on that shit but i figured oh well, homedude was tryin his best to hint to me that it was gonna be worth it and i said fuckit. Man i barely hit that bullet and it felt like someone highkicked me in the head(in a good way) and I was like WOW. He just smiled and we shook hands, I guess thats how south americans roll lol!
But ya I was parked in the dead middle of the main stage the entire time and had my own lil dance circle and everyone was feeding me waters, offering me everything under the sun and enjoying my knowledge. I'd call out mixes, songs and tell peeps, "watch this beat drop in, in 3, 2, 1, BAM" and all the strangers would just gimme this weird look and then start asking me questions and tryin to hang with us.
Of course when PVD played Time of our lives last I was like guys we gotta go! Seriously! But being the newbs they were they wanted to stay. Well afterwards when we fought the 1ks of people for a taxi and I was getting insane leg/calf cramps I was just like "I told you we needed to go". We finnaly get a taxi and i had to ride down part of the road with the door open cuz my leg wouldn't bend due to being so cramped up, was definately a buzz killer.
Got back to hotel and "Dibs on the shower", got a hot shower and layed down. Always a great feeling, and got a back massage from my friend. They told me after that it was over and I was a goner, Damn i slept good that night boy! But i'm getting old and I can't go like i used to, nor do I really like getting fucked up anymore. But shit once every year or two never hurt anyone.
To anyone new to WMC/Ultra and goin out on the long WMC type weekends I suggest keeping your partying to a yearly thing. WMC is a great time to go out and have "The time of your life" but remember that its not something you wanna make a habbit out of. Miami/WMC/partying will lose its appeal if your goin for the wrong reasons or if you replicate that type of partying at home throughout the year. Make sure your there for the music(like a true T/A) and that your physically/mentally prepared each year you go. Alot of peoplpe prolly found out how rough it can be on your body/mind if you don't do it right or go overboard. I've partied and done WMC sober as much as not-sober and sure its not as fun but if you can go sober and have a good time then you know your a true fan and a strong person. I suggest hitting up a big DJ or event sober if your one of those people who are ALWAYS fucked up. It puts things into perspective for you..
Sorry bout the wall of txt that I Crit you with, but I'm killing time and type really really fast. Theres lots of things i'd post up as far as advice to anyone new to Ultra/WMC/Partying/The Scene in general, but I don't think anyone cares nor would respect my opinion. PM me if you got any questions or post up, also any of the TA's that i've met through the years are still here post up or PM me so we can catch up at the next local event.

Its cool when once every 6 months to a year one of the 100s of thousands of people who see thier names actually are fans and recognize it. |
But yeah, Eric Pryz is my #2, he is fricking amazing. Who needs actual drugs when music itself is a drug? hmmm..

| Originally posted by Ti�stoAddict19 Oh goodness...World of Warcraft...You know, I actually thought about doing the same thing. One of my characters is named Nyana, haven't had anyone catch it yet tho. So there are definitely some WoW nerds on the TA board that understand the significance But yeah, Eric Pryz is my #2, he is fricking amazing. Who needs actual drugs when music itself is a drug? hmmm..But stories...I was originally going to make the 16 hour drive to FL by myself (don't ask me how, looking back on it I don't know how I would have survived) bc no one wanted to come with me/couldn't afford it. But then I was talking to my boyfriend's ex and she said that she was down. So myself, my boyfriend's ex, and her current boyfriend (yay for being the third wheel! :P) all drove the 16 hour drive from VA for Ultra. We arrive Friday around noon only to find out that our motel is charging us double per night then what they originally told us over the phone, and there is NO WAY in HELL that this motel was even close to being worth the $80/night they originally told us let alone the $130/night that they changed it to! But, we shoved it up our asses and went along with it bc we're pushovers. So we shower, etc etc then make our way over to bicentennial. Well, never having been to UMF before, they said they were going to do strict search at the gates and I wasn't sure how strict. But there was NO WAY I was walking in there without my camera, so right after getting out of the cab, I shove my camera in my pants and stand in the line for an hour walking all funny :P Then as we walk up to the gate, the girl just looks at me and says go ahead, no pat down, nothing. I was like SWEET! Ran inside and immediately ripped my camera out of my pants bc it was entirely too uncomfortable. Saw a couple people that I hung out with at Trance Energy and in Amsterdam a month back so that was pretty sweet too. Then Sunday left around noon to make the looonnnggg journey back home with work at 8AM on Monday morning then class from 6:30 til 9pm. Good thing I'm new to this whole partying thing, otherwise I'm not sure I could have enough energy or stamina to keep this up :P |
Nice, hope u enjoyed your first WMC. Fun stuff! As far as WoW toons go, whenever I would have to make up a charac name i'd just go through my stacks of vinyl and found that the best way to pick a name. I'll have to post in the gamer section of the board and help some newbs out.
free drinks and bean bags on a yacht
tom@jeremy's pool
eating an entire meal at roasters&toasters and not remembering any of it
chilling with Neil (old guy, crazy hair)
finding sweet guido sunglasses in a school bus in pawn shop
laughing hysterically about everything, sitting on josh's porch until 11 am after vagabond
Vagabond (fire fountain ftw)
tree people
my friend (rly) buying **orange juice** from a nig in the ghetto 3 blocks north of vagabond after walking around trying to find his car for 2 hours
Lugo point !!!! (and the drive to it, 95 on 95)
One of the funniest things of the conference: There was this tripping guy at Vagabond who asked my friend to "blow out my dick cause its on fire". He was ignored the first, and second, and third time. Until my friend poured Vitamin water all over this guys pants and said "water is more effective". The guy then thanked him and walked away

| Originally posted by Jessdub99 I started reading your story and was amazed at how familiar it sounded. Then about halfway down I know I had heard this before. I met this guy at the radio1 day party at the surfcomber who was from Cali and he had told me how there were supposed to be 6 guys in one room and that he was the only one who made it... What a crazy story. I just can't believe you're on TA talking about it. If you see him ask him about the guys from Buffalo... I'm sure he'll remember. Small small world!  |
Oh yeah. I forgot one thing.
So my boyfriend's ex, and her boyfriend, and I were all going into Area 51 for FSOB. My bf's ex and I are under 21 and her bf is 25. So she walks in first, the bouncer grills her ID and then she walks in. Then I walk up, the bouncer looks at my ID and I walk past him. Then he says to me "Wait, how old are you again?" So me, all disoriented and confused, handed him back my ID so he could look at it again. He told me to hold out my arm, so I did. He put a wristband on and said "Here, this is in case you want to drink." I was like, ummmmmmm????? So then my friend's bf gets his wristband and goes up to his gf and tells her to go get hers. She says "I'm not 21 so I don't get one" then I proceed to hold up my wrist and she's like WTF?! I told her to come to the bathroom and I would peel it off and give it to her. Considering I barely had any money left as it was, I didn't want to be tempted to waste an ridic amount of money on drinks. So I peeled it off and gave it to her. She then proceeded to spend like $22 on 1 vodka/red bull and 1 bud light. Yeah, glad I gave her that wristband!
Just thought I would share that Glad to see not all bouncers are huge anal fanatics like they are up here in DC :P
