Can we please go back to Wednesday morning and try this again! :( Nothing went right.

Well had a horrible time and nothing went right for me, I really wish I could turn back time and start this whole vacation over again!!!!

I dont want to type a long thing so I will sum shit up by day even though alot of other problems happened as well:

Wed-Mon: No I dont have drugs of any type nor do I know anyone that does!

Wed: Alcohol owned me and I barely was in the DjMag party from 12:30-2:30 before I stumbled out
Dont eat a deli meat sandwich 6 hours after its been sitting out.
Due to possible food poisoning and/or dehydration I almost blacked out after I started sweating all of sudden inside the club at dig deeper, plus cigar/cigarette smoke I didnt like to much either! So I had to leave this party got there at like 12:20 and left at 1:30 and most of the time I was just sitting going in and out.

Thur: Stomach pains, bloating, and throwing up. Food wouldnt stay down so I missed getting to Juicy Beach at 12, I tried to rest and regain myself. Walked to Nikki Beach at 4pm and the line was like 200+ people, I waited for about 40 minutes and nothing seemed to moved plus I started to feel bad again and left quickly after selling my ticket for $40 (paid $60 but o well). Did not even try for Ajunabeats and just threw the ticket away in anger.

Fri: Held some food down from Thur. night so ate some more, starting feeling good but for some reason stomach gas gains and bloating were still there which made me feel nausea some time to time. Time flew bye and I missed the Chili's meet. Got into Ultra and just sat around trying to feel better but gave up and left, should of just sold the ticket.. Then my friend went to the AM only party and I gave him my ticket to sell but they did not let him in nor his friends as well I guess they got there to late but they have presale tickets as well.

Sat: On the way to Ultra was doing well. Held down some food, etc.. but before I got in I decided to sell my ticket and made my money back for what I paid for both tickets so that was good. I just went to hotel to rest more, stomach was still hurting as well.

Sun: Was going to go to SSFD but again I just did not feel right and knew once I got in I would start feeling weak and stomach issues. So I sold my ticket and got my money back, same thing for my Sander K at Shine ticket on Sunday night.


So in summary:

I basically did not have fun, I missed every party I planned to go to. I at least made most of my money back I spent on tickets. I was able to sleep and rest though, so as able to relax even though my stomach hurt most of the trip...

Sucks for you. I'd recommend pacing yourself next time, changing your party favors to ones which work right for you.

I have a new MIA shit list which includes Mynt, Liv and Set. (even the DJ's friends @ Set were not allowed in. Read Dubfire's twitter messages and I personally saw Eric Prydz come to the ropes twice and his buddies not be let in for a while.

DJ Mag and Mansion pretty much let anyone with a hard ticket in quick, the way it should be.

Sorry to hear your WMC did not go as planned...

I'm in the same boat as you... except I never got to experience WMC this year.

I was hospitalized on 3/15 for two weeks. Had to cancel my WMC plans... I suppose health is more important? =P

I had everything planned. Was able to cancel my hotel without fees. American airlines charged me $150 cancellation fee on a $190 ticket even for medical emergencies (FUCK YOU AA). and had to get rid of $600 worth of presale tickets I had already purchased. Worst of all, I missed the Sander/Desyn yacht, which I was really looking forward to.

Oh well, atleast I am healthy now. Miami will be better for you and I next year!

Damn guys that suck. My best night was Space @ Viva Terrace on Thursday- most boringest night was going to SOBE on friday and going to local small places- will never do that again- I want room, big sounds, and big systems when Im at WMC- lesson learned. I only hope I can pull off a trip next year back- Ill def. do yacht parties and some more pool parties.
I went to Ultraloco and wasnt that impressed- wasnt as hard as I like it. It was ok and the first half I was recovering. Next time Ill go with big names and just do it.

ha sounds like you NEEDED some drugs for real...probably would have helped your ass. I seem to always get this crazy head/chest cold the second or third day i'm there but i power through as long as i can...being with good friends really helps keep you going! but if you get left to your own devices, curling into fetal position in your hotel sounds like the best option...

theres always next year! if you're not soured from this experience so bad you never want to try again.

Thanks for sharing! I'd love to check them out when you've recovered and uploaded them, haha. I was going through WMC withdrawels and was watching be-at.tv also


Posted by TaurusNYY on Mar-30-2010 16:54:

Good luck Mar- just listen to the music thats is still playing in your head from WMC- and let it all flow.

good luck Mikey! the black bags just show your undying dedication to the legal system....all those all-nighters prepping for this case!

sounds like a rookie experience in miami

rule of thumb, you only eat substantial food the first day you land, after that you should expect everything to go to shit (blacking out included), supplement the days after with the south beach diet - fruit smoothies. secondly, you sound like a chump...not feeling good and bailing at a party clearly means you needed some drugs, if the thought of chicks in bikini's didn't muster up the courage to power through then I'd say you're probably gay and like the cock.

i'm just sayin...

Mdtechno - sorry you had a shitty week. but i can only laugh that you didn't have a good time. after reading ALLLLL about your preplanning this, pre-planning that. how you seemed to know everything about miami, yet it was only your first year

i can say i saw this coming. i see it coming for all noobs that plan as much as you.

first year people take note.... plan little. it's good to plan, but you don't know how miami is during WMC, so plan little to get a feel for how that week is. it's def NOT for the weak at heart. i'm sicker than a dog right now. however, i made it to all my parties but one (went to a different party instead)

couldnt agree more, i always seem to get the death cold from hell late in the week, but i power on cuz i know when i get home i can recover properly.
the biggest mistake i see noobs make, and even some seasoned vets is they get there and hit the bottle immediately.
Most of us are coming from colder climates, or at least aren't used to the humidity and how tiring it can be--add that, plus constant sun, plus tons of alcohol, adrenaline and the stress from travel and you just set yourself up for the worst experience of your life. For every 1 shot of alcohol you need 2 bottles of water to even that shit out in your body or you're in for some insane sickness.
I lost 9lbs in 6 days. its crazy...and i was really TRYING to keep feeding myself, carrying granola and protein bars where i could and plenty of fluids. But you get caught up in the excitement and don't realize how many hours go by since you last ate. If anything stick to BEER, at least you're getting some grains/carbs haha.
sucks to be sick on your vacation..especially WMC, but take it as a lesson learned and don't think you're the coolest guy on the planet pounding drinks as soon as you get there.
even sharks get eaten once in awhile...

Ooohhhh Jim, I think your mistake was pre gaming so hard before the DJ Mag Pool Party! Me and Matt like to hit it hard but you were fucked by 1pm and im sure you will thank me for providing the proof!!!

lol @ walked in angry. i had this really crazy (blame it on my fever and theraflu) picture of you for some reason walking into an ice cream shop, ordering a big ass sundae and eating it incredibly violently, then insulting the guy behind the counter...
i realize that has absolutely nothing to do with court, but it was a funny mental picture regardless.


Posted by bigsnail on Mar-31-2010 05:01:

damn, that sucks.....i think i had the best year ever. felt like i was in the zoo the entire time.


Posted by Fl1p on Mar-31-2010 05:09:

Sorry to hear that bud I texted you on Wednesday when you were at the DJ Mag pool party and you were definitely texting drunk LOL and I swear I looked for you all over B.E.D that night but just couldn't find you, guess because you left early.


Posted by TaurusNYY on Mar-31-2010 14:48:

This pic isnt for real is it. That is hillarious- I was boderline overplanning my trip as well- but then again I am a veteran at partying so had no bad nights and for being my first WMC I had a blast and next time will party even harder just cause I know I can .

You live and learn- btw who the hell eats a 6 hour old sandwich - that should be the first NO NO on your life list forget the WMC list.

If all you do is drink you really have to pace yourself- this isnt get drunk music- getting drunk just gets you sloppy and dancing for 5-8 hours means alot of drinking - which then results in poor coordination and just being a mess. Next time be sober and enjoy yourself. Or see your local street pharma. which is really the way to go.

This is exactly why you should do drugs:

1) you'll eat less (less chance of upset stomach)
2) it's cheaper
3) it doesn't give you alcohol poisoning
4) it doesn't give you hangovers, and if u take 5-htp u don't feel down at all
5) it gives u the energy to truck through the rough times
6) it's more fun than alcohol

sounds to me like you just didn't know how to plan your week...lots of alcohol during WMC is just dumb. eating old sandwiches? really? its hard for me to feel sorry for you when you made such obvious mistakes like that...

i had a great fucking time. lost about 15 lbs. got some sun. met a shit ton of cool people. heard a shit load of good music. and have a few dozen stories to tell the chumps from atlanta who didn't want to go out clubbing with me.

I couldn't have said it better myself. I need to try 5 HTP next time im down there- Friday morning I was hurting at the circoloco party and needed to take an hour break on the lounge chairs- but everything started to kick in and I was BACK BAby! lol damn I loved it.


Posted by DRM on Mar-31-2010 21:09:

For all those people saying that you cant just drink a lot at WMC then you are wrong. You just need to be able to handle a lot of alcohol without feeling the effects too much. Something it appears not many American's have the ability to do.

Me and Matt were drinking all day every day and whilst being pissed 90% of the time we only actually had one hangover all week.

I will agree that it was expensive to do it this way though!
