i love to dress in theme for these big raves and no one does it better than kris and michelle so when they suggested we pick characters from alice in wonderland i was on board! michelle was the queen of hearts, kris was the rabbit, julie was the chesire cat and i was alice, yes, i know i don't have blonde hair but whatever.
we get there around 6ish and walk around and check out the sights. not as many people dressed up as they did for EDC but those that did were fun. blank and jones gets on right at 7 and we get up front to dance. i loved their set!!!! the room filled up quickly and the crowd seemed to really dig their set. at the end of their set they came to the edge of the stage to shake fans hands and such and it was way cool to see them get really excited to see eric there and they hugged him and smiled real big. it is great to see djs be excited to see their biggest fans and to greet them that way is incredible. i really do enjoy dj's sets at these raves b/c they don't hold back and just bang it out for the hour and a half they have.
then eddie gets on the decks and of course he kills it so much energy and all that crazy tweaking and whatever else he does just makes for a spectacular show. we are all drenched with sweat by now but can't stop dancing. at the end of eddie's set he decides to stage dive into the crowd!!! pretty f-ing cool but then again, not too smart b/c he was relying on a crowd full of crackheads to keep him afloat. but with no incidents he made it back to the stage. then hernan gets on and i have never seen him before and i really dug his set! i know it seemed out of place for some people but i thought nocturnal's line up was way smoother in transitions than EDC. atleast you didn't have the major energy djs leading into low energy ones.
anyways....... then the 15 minute change over and it's time to walk around. michelle, kris and i ride the slide which was way fun. met all kinds of crazy fun people. loved partying with henry and mo_n_japan! man mo your energy is crazy. he never stopped when i saw him and henry was having a blast. very cool to meet kimchi and of course all the other TA's that were there.
then RITM gets on and the crowd was just way too packed and it's getting hot, so kaine and i go to the side stage they had for vip and watch from there. pretty cool to watch bunny change into all his different outfits behind the stage. man, i don't know how he did it with the heat and those heavy outfits. i asked him about it afterwards and he was like, it was way hot but he loved the crowds reactions. they definitely put on a crazy live show with tons of great visuals.
christopher lawrence was on after that and of course this is where he shines, at raves and he just laid it down. there was one track around an hour in that if i had my eyes closed i would have sworn jOOf was on the decks! but the last 4-5 tracks he kinda held back or something, but he was still great.
IM was crazy and loud and fast and insane just like EDC but so was their track selection. i recognized the first hour right away so after that michelle and i decided to get some fresh air and walk around. by this time my feet hurt so bad i wanted to cry. my buzz had worn off so i was in major pain. i can't seem to learn my lesson, i always tend to put fashion over comfort but i think this time i have learned my lesson. i wore platform high heel mary janes and they totally matched my alice outfit and were pretty comfortable until about 2 am and then the pain set in. i literally have bruises on the balls of my feet and my right pinky toe is cut to hell and back. i have been walking on the sides of my feet for 2 days now and not wearing shoes. i dont' know what i'm gonna do when i go back to work tomorrow.
so all in all i had a very fun evening. i go in to these raves knowing what they are, i try to stay away from the e-puddles and try not to get upset when i see 14 year olds cracked out. i enjoy the vibe from so many of the people and see things you normally don't see at clubs. it gives me a chance to see many djs in one night and since my attention span is pretty short it's perfect for me that each set is only an hour and a half. the energy is always high and i always meet interesting people. and dressing up is always fun, everything is funner in costume!
thank you so much kris for hosting us this weekend, you're awsome and kaine totally hooked us up!!!!! so much thanks to him. miss him so much. partying with michelle, kris, julie, ben, thrax, eric, riia and so many more of the TA's is always a great part of my experience. nice to finally meet the quiz and happy birthday to you! also so great to see fei-fei there! it always amazes me how many people you just randomly run into with that many people there! i'm sure i'm forgetting some people but i can't seem to remember at the moment. finally rested thanks to having monday off. good times, good times!
my only real rant was the nasty guy who's dick was hard and rubbing it all over my ass. i actully turned around and said to him "Get your dick off of me!" he just looked at me like he didn't know what i was talking about and then proceeded to do it again!!!!!!! i had to push him off of me and then i finally had enough and moved all together b/c he wasn't going anywhere.

A Trip down the Rabbit hole
Nocturnal Wonderland this year was by far the best one I have been too. The Tallent was awesome and worked out in the time slots the Dj's where placed in.
Kris, Sarah, Julie and I decided to Dress up in the alice in Wonderland theam. Kris was the sexy white rabbit, Sarah Sexy Alice, Juile the sexy Cheiser Cat and I the Queen of Hearts
We get to the event around 6:30pm and right away we where stoped by people who wanted to take our pictures. After the quick photoshoot we went into the mainroom and ran into Blank and Jones. Since they where not on yet we went back outside to get a frozen Margarita and talk with the TA's we ran into and get more photos taken. Again we where stoped a lot but quickly made it to the "main room" The room was all of a sudden packed and Blank and Jones where going off! They played an awesome set that got every one in that room dancing.
I first started dancing on the side stage they had but the music was so good I had to be out in the middle. The last song they played was Underworld-Born Slippy I do not care how "old" this track is... it is simply amazing. \o/
After Blank and Jones, Eddie took over and blew the roof off! Wow. I was lucky enough to get on stage and watch this guy mix from the side lines. Wow. I can watch this guy mix forever. He had 3 tracks going at once! and it sounded like one Track. His tricks on the CDJ's and Mixer our out of this world. Again the tracks where so good I had to be out in the middle. I wish they put video cam's by him and incorperated it into his visuals so everyone could see. Right before his set Ended Eddie gets in front of the crowd and stage dives into the sea of crackyness. I do not know what he was thinin :lol:
There wasn't even 5 minutes and Rabbit in the Moon took over. Yes I know it is not Daft Punk, or Kraftwerk.. but they put on one hell of a show. Everything from the full body light suit (those glasses they hand out make the show very intense) to the Green furry thing, to the big plastic ball, glow sticks, fire girl, to the saw on the mask is just amazing. Bunny had to be hot in all his outfits. At the end of the preformance all this red and silver confeddi came out and stuck to everyone. We where all coverd.
There was a slight change over but a stage hand had this huge thing that blew out ice cold air. Man that felt so good. I wish they had that thing going on the whole night.
During the change over. Kris, Sarah and I decided to take a walk out side to cool off and explor. I saw that they had rides and I had to go on the super slide. WEEE. That was a lot of Fun.
Back inside we went and Hernan was on. I liked some of his tracks but I was not really into his set. So I went to walk around for a little bit with Sarah.
After our walk and a slight buzz kill it was back to the main room. Christopher Lawernce was on and was killing it. He played some amazing tracks. Since it was too packed in the middle Sarah and I decided to dance on the side stage again. We saw this little candy kid girl jump on stage and start dancing. Then she went for Lawerance she was kicked off the stage but not out of the event. b/c she did it again!
Half way b/w his set Sarah and I decided to move to the other side so we could get our picture with him. I got to go on stage again and took some pictures. Then my friend took me to the actual booth. Since I HATE being in the way I took a couple shots and left back down to the side to dance.
Infected Mushroom was the final act of the night. Sahra and I got our picture with the lead singer of the group before they got on.
Like they did at EDC they killed the dance floor. The crowd was going off!
I do not know what track they where on but some crazycrack head jumped on stage and grabed the lead singer (ummm ok WTF) Security quickly kicked him off. There preformance was had so much energy! The place was PACKED with people. Too crowed to even think about going out there to dance. A half hour before they where done it was time to go outside and cool off and walk around alittle bit.
At 4am the event eneded. We rounded up the troops and headed over to Kris's house to rest our feet and chill.
None of this night would not have happend if it wasn't for Kaine. So a BIG huge thank you goes out to him. I had so much fun dressing up and parting it up with all the TA's!!
I will be posting my pictures soon. Warning I did not take a lot this year. Red lights and my cam do not get along well.. and I forgot one of my batteries at Kris's so I had to conserve
