YOU JUST FUCKED WITH THE WRONG MEXICAN.....EL CRTEL.....

Yeah my bad I meant when Claude and his record label came to Stereo and ripped a new black hole in the universe . It's sad i'll never get to experience a real good rave

funny thread. i'd have to get out ALL my ticket stubs & flyers to do this properly, but i'll just go with memory & feeling on this one.

keep in mind, i got into this scene in may 2005. and i know ammar said "best nights popping pills" or something along those lines...but i am very proud to say i was not high for every single event i mention here, hehe. forgive me if the dates aren't spot on.

best club nights in no particular order, i can't choose which one is best...all so memorable.

-steve lawler @ stereo, july 1st 2005.

-danny howells vs. john digweed @ aria, labour day weekend 2005.

-sander kleinenberg @ stereo, i believe it was march 2006.

-john digweed @ stereo, i forget the date (2007-2008ish?)

-john creamer & stephan k @ circus (summer 2006 i believe)

-danny howells @ aria, new years morning 2006...i think i might have cried when he played r3volve's remix of 'hide and seek' towards the end of his set at like, 1130am...lmao.

-desyn masiello @ stereo, fall 2006.

-lee burridge @ stereo, fall 2006. (this was the after-party for the trentmoller show if i'm not mistaken).

-the early steve lawler nights at tribe were awesome...

-dubfire @ stereo, spring 2011...(the last time he played here, when tone depth & maher played before him)...i was expecting not much from him, his sound hadn't been my cup of tea for years, and he fucking blew the roof off. i remember my drink wobbling from the bass when he started...fucking epic.

-trentmoller @ cabaret juste pour rire, october or november 2006.

-mauro picotto & junkie xl @ aria, spring 2006 i believe.

i'm sure i'm missing some...but ya, that's about it.

best "rave" nights...i don't think they were really true raves, like the ones that took place in 1990 when i was 5 years old, but whatever...it's what i was exposed to.

-steve lawler @ celebration (bell center), NYE 2006

-sasha & john digweed @ pepsi forum, december 2007...i don't think i spoke to anyone that night, i was sooooooo knackered & blown away, haha...

that's it.

oh, well, nic fanciulli's & preach's set @ bal en blanc 2006 were dope, but that party sucked.

annnnnnnd, magda, richie hawtin & ricardo villalobos @ piknic electronik, june 2006...i don't feel picknic falls under "rave" or "club" category, but that event definitely deserves a very honorable mention.

c tout! people that know me personally on this board, who came to my pre-parties (& after-parties ) ... help me remember more awesome nights from 2005-2008 please

nostalgia ensues <3

edit: sorry ammar! i just noticed u specified parties in the last 2-3 years, my apologies!

Afterhours is a state of mind, but significantly, it's more a state of 'I don't mind'. A determined continuation, contentment and relief that 'it ain't over yet!' An injection of music into attitude and occasion which creates an emotional wave forth that isolates globally, a ringing harmonic, a signal to a like-minded collective that 'we are only us'.

Sasha & Digweed @ Pepsi forum, Dec 28 2007

Top 3 best massive parties ever

The Primary parties in New England still own the top slots ever for me, but my favorite Mtl massives ever were the first Bal en Blanc that Danny Tenaglia played (2000?) and the first Swirl party.

Hahaha actually I shouldn't have specified the last 2-3 years, it seems there aren't that many events that happened in that time. So whatever event that you had fun in which house music was involved please tell me :P, it seems there aren't as many good events nowdays

Shit kind of died down in the last 2-3 years.
