Hahaha. After we got home from the festival last night all my cohorts in crime, aka the group of tas staying in Limin's basement, super duper triple dog dared me to write that. Unfortunately there actually was no orgy, just a lot of edm and classic video game playing.

The festival was amazing, loads of fun! I have a million pictures from the 2 days, which everyone knows me, I'll get around to uploading in like a week

Sunday was a lot of fun!! Good seeing a bunch of TAs out! Deadmau5 was aite...Richie was good, Moby was really good, and Armin was pretty good too. Props to all of those from out of town who came to the festival.

  • steve lawler had such a sick set and the crowd was so grimmy lol omg good times! favorite set so far
  • soulwax was second favorite. really surprising and great live set, even got myself a drum stick from the drummer reminds me of digitalism
  • underworld was good but i think setting up after a dj set affected their show, sound was muffle and i didnt have to use my ear plugs for the first time! their performance wasnt as good as the warfield but they did play more tracks this time around
  • ferry played a lot of classics but i wasnt up front and chilled around the tent to take a break esp after lawler madness
  • bloc party was neat but really not my thing i guess and i wanted to get back to the dance tent in tipme for Lawler
  • gogol bordello was really interesting and fun to watch/listen. thanks rafal
  • glaude and dan were meh, same tracks as usual but at least they have an energetic attitude and into their set
  • the offspring, fuck em theyre from san jose no need to watch em
  • foo fighters, missed them cause we were all at underworld
went to club Ibiza for Glow with a few NY/DC TAs and caught Breakfast (he opened and closed -- both were really good and it was a joy seeing him mix. really energetic guy too), some DJ i forgot the name of and a special surprise short guest set by Corsten! Club itself is nice, reminds me of a larger 1015 with a Ruby Skye crowd. DJ booth is nice but its so high up its retarded. stayed until the end and then had breakfast with Breakfast at Dennys

so all this w/o almost 48 hours of sleep and only 2 shots of patron (they were free) and im not hurting yet... just having so much fun with NY/DC TAs and the festival itself

Oh fuck NIN was so bad ass incl the visuals/production! Wish I wasn't so tired to fully enjoy it. Deadmau5 did play differently from the previous 2 times ive seen him, a lot of miminal stuff maybe because he was before Hawtin? Moby started off banging but I left as I didn't plan on missing STP. Later found out he just played top 40 stuff after his first 2-3 tracks Same goes with Armin... at least according to Frank

Alright no more tease.

Here is my official review. But before I go on, I just want to say you guys are the best TA ever. This show could've been ever boring without you guys there.

The Review

Jay , Polly and I woke up @ approx 10:30 AM Saturday morning, all beat up but excited. After we ate lunch, we were really pumped for the show.



Except me in this picture. Hehhe

Well, we arrive at the gates wondering where to pick up the tickets. Took us about 20 minutes or so, not too bad.

We came to the Dance Tent around 1pm. This unknown DJ was playing a decent electro set. Pretty impressive.

As I was getting use to the place, I met up with bunch of locals including Zoltar "The Brother From Another Planet" and then DCgirly and her sister.





DJ Dan and Donald Glaud came on to the stage, rock the place. Apparently, not only Donald is a DJ, he is a male cheerleader too hehe.



DJ Dan and Donald played Novy Vs Eniac-Pumpin, Fatboy Slim-*69 and lots of Daft Punk remixes including Around The World. Great set all around.

And den guess who showed up?



Yeah the SFTA's w00t!!

Then I went off to see The offsprings for something different. I got to say, I am not big offspring fan. I was hopping to hear "Why don't you get a job", so I didn't stay up for that.



I went back to the tent as usual, and there he was



Even more interesting person came in to the tent.



Yeah, that was a guy with a tooth brush. No kidding.





Jay was getting some...


Soulwax came on to the stage. What it appears to be a rock band with vocalist and a drummer, but they played EDM which was cool



I wanted to know if SFTA wanted to meet the local DCTA. Rizo was like sure.



Steve Lawler did play a decent minimal set from my opinion. But we were all waiting for Ferry to come on.



Ferry started pretty strong with some electro sounds and then went to the his classic routes with Binary Finary-1999 (Gouryella Remix) and he finished with PUNK!!! Freaking awesome. Never mind the body surfing and the mushpit a dance tent. It was a great show. I was pretty warn out, and then bam!!




StarSoprano!!!!


We had to grab a couple of drinks I had a cup of Mojito and she had a vodka/cranberry juice drink. Good times, I was getting pretty buzzed after the budlight.



Underworld was pretty cool, but we were figuring out where to go from there on. One of my friend wanted to just chill at his apartment, but the majority TA wanted to go see Breakfast @ Ibiza.

Apparently, I give out bad direction lol.

Franky, Gilbert, Erica, and I headed down first, only to find the cover charge was 25 bux!!!! Rip off!! Here are some photos from Ibiza
and the after after party.

















Yeah, Gilbert and Franky didn't sleep for the that 48 hours.



Franky still got it going on LoL!!


That's it for day one!!! Up next, Day 2. Stay Tuned.
