Rating the party: 90/100
Alright, first of all, I have to say that I didnt make it for the meetup, unfortunately, because I got to Toronto at 9:49PM and we BARELY found the Guv. Well, overexagerrating, of course, but it was a treacherous drive and my windshield wipers were in a terrible state. So please dont bug me about the fact that I did a meetup thread and then didnt come, cause it was a HELL OF PREPARATION ... Got off work 8:05 ... drove off 8:10 ... pick up my friend 8:17 ... picked up Hami 8:28 ... got to gas station / left 8:50 ... treacherous road conditions ... I feel bad, cause I soooooo wanted to come to the meetup, but but but ... but
Alright, now about the party. WOW, it was AWESOME! I'd rank it my third best party I've ever went to, behind Christmas Bash 2003 @ Viva (#2) and Edgar V @ Viva 08-2003 (#1). I've met and talked to sooooooo many TAs, I cant possibly list them all, nor do I remember everyone at the moment (SLEEPY ......ZZZZZZZZ), so sorry if I ommitted anyone: Skeletor, Hami, Tanya, Durafei, Swamper +1, Itikia +gf, two Asian guys who I met at Viva on Christmas Bash 03, Diginut, Loconet, Tatgirl, Psyrage ... and about 20 more TAs ... TAs RULE!!!!
Now as for the music ... The DJ who warmed up for G&D played some really really sleepy repetitive prog ... zzzz ... but when G&D came on, WOW ... I am not scoffing at them anymore! They played pretty much all of their remixes ... INCLUDING MY FAV OF THEIRS - NALIN&KANE - BEACHBALL!!!! Also, remixes and originals for both Andain songs, also Sarah McLachlan - Fallen ... overall they were great. However, by the time it was 1:20, I wanted them to go off ... zzz ... I cant believe they played Beaituful Things TWICE! Now thats not cool!
Infected Mushroom - WOW! Were awesome! Played lots of new psy and their stuff, didnt recognize a SINGLE track ...
Rank 1 - cheese-free, some great stuff, but didnt blow me away. I expected more ...I left Kool Haus at 5:40PM.
Mark Oliver - great as usual, at times I came by the main room and chilled to some of his tunes ... I totally went crazay when he dropped Afterburn - Summer Sun 
Where was Anne Savage???
Oh, the orange room was all-night hip-hop, and they played at times some fine hip-hop when I went through, but mostly shite. Once they played Notorious B.I.G. - Hypnotize, and I actually stayed there for the duration of that song ... ONCE! Otherwise they played lots of crap there, and there were a few people there anyhow, hehe!
I really wanted lazers in the Kool Haus, but oh well ... I have to give the award to the DJ of the night to G&D, although IM was greatin that regard too, but I think G&D deserved it just a bit more ...
Alright, I am dead tired and sleepy, going to bed now, Talk later.
Hami, I left at 7:22, sorry couldnt wait longer, if you didnt get a ride and were stuck in line - we had to go ... but hopefully you got a ride and everythings fine! Talk to you on MSN.
