I think I only went to 3 or 4 parties in all of 2008, so I would have to agree you Gera. These are the ones that stick out in my mind.

- DEMF --- nothing stands out in particular, cos it was all good, but i do remember especially wishing that i wasn't crippled during richie hawtin's set.

honorable mentions (not because i was blown away by anyone's technical brilliance or track selection, but because i had a lot of fun at both events and that's what's been lacking for me in this "scene" as of late):

- Box of Kittens in Dec
- Milkrun Labour Day weekend

did i go to anything else good? i don't think so...

2008 was the year of being underwhelmed in general by most events.

1) Beats Ahoy (the one in may.... i cant remember what number)

Glad I could be there with you
That was a highlight for me party-wise this year as well, along with Monegros and I Love Techno for a variety of reasons! Gorod club in Moscow on my birthday was also a treat.
Now I am excited for the last party of the year - Awakenings tomorrow.. hehe
