Eek, that was a very very long weekend, cheers Chookie and Bragi for the day after chillout session, and the DVD stuff and the CD we were listening to over coffee the next morning, for the drive home . Had a fun night and day followed by a long drive home to canberra saturday night (except I decided not to go home oh dear...)

Who said that??? I only said that it might be confused with Junior Jack...i didn't say YOU didn't know...i didn't know who started the Jumping Jack thing so it wasn't directed at anyone..

OK, I just want to say, now that I can think straight due to actually having some sleep, I had an fuckin awesome weekend.

I was awake for 60 hours straight. I was not tired at all, and by Sunday afternoon if anyone could actually understand me I'd be very surprised!

I had such a great time at halcyon, and then afterwards hanging out at my place. I had such great conversations and just enjoyed the great company.

Looking forward to the next halcyon!!!

As has been said JJ has been around for a very long time and he is very keen to be getting back to playing a more uplifting sound however, he presently has no avenues in Sydney in which he can do that! We are giving him that opportunity and i encourage you to all come along with an open mind! I guarantee his set will rock...just ask any one who went to John 00 Fleming and heard what he played that night...JJ will be the goods I guarantee it

That's what I like to hear

I thought I could understand you, but what was that about purple hamburgers I was very much in the same boat as you by the end of the weekend. Where'd you guys end up going after I left? (I so hope you left the Roxbury and that crappy old people's music)

I must say that has to be the best Halcyon so far . I also think the TA team was at their happiest and am sure we all danced more on Friday than we have in a very long time!!!

Sample Gee....best set of his so far that I been at. Loved the way not only he but all dj¡¦s mixed up the styles. Uplifting melodic is mainly what most Halcyons are about but jumping up and down with hands in air can really wear you out by half way thru night. This time though it felt more like a sweet chilli/halcyon combination, another reason why I think most of us lasted all night. So glad Cam was last to play too, his track selection was just the perfect to end of the night.

Only downer of the night was the moment the music went off and lights on. Did not expect it and was a shock to the system.Think Cam was only like half way thru the set? Felt like was a kid eating icecream for the first time and someone just came and snatched it for me . Feel slightly embarrassed for standing on the podium and yelling where is my music, who took my music but that¡¦s me, am crazy so who cares lol.

Also got to take around 50 shots and have some beautiful ones of most of the ta¡¦s there with heaps of great group shots too and vids with highlights of Cam and Sample¡¦s set. Got no host so cant upload but will become an itm contributer in the next few days and put up there unless someone has a better option.

Huge hug and hello to all my T/A friends and to the new ones I met that night too. Hope no-one feels they were too ¡§interrogated¡¨ by Bel and I and hope no-one took offense at us. Just were in this super friendly mood and wanted to meet and learn as much about ppl as we could. Not sure how I myself would react though if some stranger was just in my face going blah blah blah a million miles an hour. Also remember standing in doorway of toilets and saying to everyone that walked in, hi who are you, why are you here, what do you do, wanna dance up front..lol lol lol

If I didn¡¦t already have my Seaman ticket think I would re-consider and go to Halcyon instead now. I chose Seaman over the next Halcyon (first I will not be attending ) but after the great night I had am having second thoughts but too late as have ticket.

Sorry to Lisa, Sel, Lee, James and rest for not joining in the after party hangout. Next time am sure we will all be organised and no-one will have anything they have to do the next day ļ.

don't stress eddie - we'll have an awesome time at seaman when else are we gonna get the chance to see him playin such an intimate set with only 200 ppl there?? halcyon's at least once a month...seaman isn't....methinks we've made the right choice also, i've checked out a few matt darey sets lately, and i have to say he doesn't really do it for me (sorry psygnosis...hehe) - knowin ur tastes, he might not for u either..... besides, we'll be in syd 2 weeks later for B&J/Kid Vicious - that'll be awesome and i know ur hangin out for that so, tis all good and hey, u can swing by the restaurant for some zucchini balls before seaman's set *lol*
