There's one way to do it

Wich is the best !!!


Get home after your day ... at 7-8pm ... try to sleep a bit ... and then .. wake up at about 3-4 in the mornin .. then go to the aria ... you'll be awake and full of energy !!

I dont know why people do E

myself, I can work all day, go to a bar around 10 and last till 6 in the AM without drugs or drinks.

if I drink a rev or 2 or take caffeine or ephedra/ephedrine i last longer...I get a natural buzz from a good crowd.

i don't know, if you take E to stay awake, you are a pussy. You dont need that shit. just get a good nap, and try holding yourself from jumping all around at the club. you'll stay awake easy till 7-8 am. Anyways, i talk for myself. Most of the time I'm still so hype from a party that I stay awake till 11am-noon at home then hit the bed

well said Big Malekovsky i don't waste my energy around , i keep it for "special tracks" hehe , i don't even need a nap before going , just drink a little red bull on my way to the place and it does it

Yeah, usually if the music is good you don't need any "uppers" to last till the morning. Smoking usually affects my stamina(and not in a good way), and of course how tired I am from the day before. Usually when I get 10 hours of sleep the day before party, I'm good to go till the morning. You also have to take breaks from dancing every once in a while. A 10 minute break(a good break, where you just sit down and relax, and not stand up), can provide for another good hour of dancing.

My energy depends TOTALLY on the music and the vibe. If the music sucks or the vibe lacking, I get tired quickly. If it's awesome, I find energy even after I had thought I had none left. Other things that help are regular cardiovascular workouts and a good night's sleep or nap before the party. I have had nights when I had been sleep deprived (I mean like average less than 3-4 hours for several days) then was able to go completely sober till 8 am or so just because the music was kick-ass. And I didn't have to "conserve" myself during the night to do it. In fact, I often find a serious break makes it harder to get back into it.

Too many times you have been high
Too many times you ran away, no need to cry
Too many times your body lies awake
Too many times these pills you take

Too many times you've woken up depressed
Too many times you put your life to the test
Too many times you've taken this trip
Too many times you have slipped

Too many times your body can't take
Too many times you've made a mistake
Too many times you haven't realized
Too many times your mind became paralyzed

The motivation is what keeps me going.

If there is a good Dj, and a cheering crowd. I'll last all night long.

And since all the djs that come to Aria are good, I'd be always able to last all night long.

And If I'm really tired from the week, a couple of red-bulls or revs will do the job.

E is a stupid way to stay awake.

Sleep is the number one factor followed by drinks, dj set nrg, but another thing, is carbs, try and eat a good meal before coming, pizza, pasta, pretty much anything heavy and then burn it off over the evening.


Posted by mastercongo on Jan-24-2003 17:10:

thrusday i stay awake till 3am. i wake up at 8 then i dont sleep the whole day. then i got to montreal and sleep 1 hour on the buss. i stay on the city till aria opens and leave at 9:30 when my buss comesback. so..... no drugs, no drinks, just music,water, chillin with the ta's.

Blow, Crystal, Speed
Im a pussy

i disagree with the "you're a pussy if you cant do it naturally"

cuz really, the human body is not supposed to stay up during the night.

---> you're supposed to be sleeping. <---

thus all this partying is quite unnatural. though many can do it, i must point out that everyone's constitution and biological clock are totally different. some people just sleep a lot. those people can't last a long time awake all night, and especially not while dancing as well. doesn't matter if they take a nap or whatever.

also, another factor are your regular sleep/waking times. if you're normal, and go sleep earlier than "usual", then staying up all night for a party is insanely difficult. on the other hand if you stay up till 3 am every night, then making the stretch 'till 8am+ isn't too much difficult.

my .02

So, 404 science, don't worry a single bit if it's hard to stay up, and certainly don't think that you're "unnatural."

quite on the contrary.

i'd just suggest what some others have suggested - get a lot of sleep beforehand, and take plenty of breaks during the night - just make sure you don't fall asleep during them! (lol).

OH! and drink lots of water! keep your body hydrated (but that goes without saying). plus, what i find is a lifesaver, is if there are refreshments of some sort available. i remember ball en blanc last year in montreal, what SAVED me was eating that one apple. that was the best tasting apple ever. fruit does wonders!

Try to duplicate your going out routine a couple of days before the event. IOW wake up at 3am on the thursday, and friday. You'll feel tired earlier (8pm)..go to bed and wake up to go out around 2-3am.

I totally agree...One Red Bull is enough to power me through a whole morning of dancing


Posted by Mekroon on Jan-26-2003 19:56:

imo im not being a pussy if i take speed...
i need half a pill to be able to keep dancing like a mofo till the end of a set of marco v for example....in the case of a hard set like mauro gives, i just dont trust someone that tells me he danced like i did without some drugs...its IMPOSSIBLE to dance very hard during 4 hours at 6 am without the use of drug....
i admit that if i could dance through the night without drugs i wold do it but i cant...half a speed doesnt ruin ure hole week-end and it keeps me in shape to dance till 7h so the rest of the set is on my energy....
i think ill never stop taking speed cause (i dont care if some of u think this is false) it puts u in an other state of mind and i can focus on the beat not on my body cause it doesnt hurt!
i would also ad that it aint making a geek out of me cause i aint looking like someone being in his own world and just enjoying his buzz...im there for the music and the pill just makes it easier to pass the night without pain...

heheh yes, I drink red bulls like water, maybe 3-4+ a night!! I don't know if there's a real effect or more of a psychological effect (placebo effect).

no man cant be a placebo.. I mean look at how much coke wires a kid. Or how coffee wakes you up in the morning. One little redbull has about three or four times more cafeen than a coke. I think swamper posted the actual cafeen content on one of the thread in here somewhere.
god bless the red bull let me tell you

Pretty good poem!!!

Did you right it?


Posted by exergo on Jan-29-2003 22:36:

it's all about having a nap.....

usually from 8-11 or something...

then ya stay up as long as ya can..and if your just to damn tired at 5 am, then i'll pop an e....and if the music is gonna be amazing, heck, e is much better than alcohol anyway....cheaper too.

but staying up past 7 sober is pretty much impossble if ya still wanna dance...unless the music is realy really good....

Here you go, I did Sander,for his 7.5 hour long set and dance like a fucking mad chicken without a head (ask Meat if you don't beleive me) then I slept 7 hours and went to JOOF in Ottawa and danced for another 6 hours, albeit not as crazily. I did it all without any redbull or drugs. Gatorade for sander and water for JOOF and that's it. It's all about sleep, and a good meal before hand. Being in shape helps too.

All that i need is just great beats.... if the dj is boring me then i'll be really tired.


Posted by alec on Jan-30-2003 19:50:

True, if the dk is boring I'll fall asleep, like with Sasha, I fell asleep for a bit, but if the dj keeps you pumped with the music then you stay pumped wether you like it or not
