Gah.. no I wish I was... Going to the WMC is on my TO DO LIST as soon as I'm completely independent and done with school. As for now, school and money are an issue. Tiesto was Great, the first time I saw him play in PR was in Las Cascadas, that party was insane, I remember a friend of Mr. Pink and me almost wanted to jump from one slide to the other (about 5 feet below) dangling about o10-15 feet in the air, obviously not sober... fortunantly the idea was withdrawn from his mind. Armin in the Hacienda was INSANE, that was probably one of the better parties I've gone to in my life. The energy in the crowd was amazing Armin knew it, he felt it, he owned it. That is what good parties are all about. i got to admit though The First Temple of sound was alot better than the Second one, I just think the Second one(where Tiesto played) he was just promoting his new album, instead of working the crowd and pumping up the party.
My friend the electronic ambience has always existed, it just got more low key because of the disasters the first few major parties caused. Way to many drugs, on a crowd that didnt even know what to expect, Rony in Las Cuevas de Camuy, and that was in the early 90's, we've come a long way since then.
I still get bummed out, because most people in PR like the genre but not enough to reaserch it, so everyone only knows the pop crap that plays on the radio, thats why when Seb Fontaine came to PR, the place he played at was not even half full. I must say, he still put on a great show, although I expected more people to show up to pay tribute to the artist. It's sad how reggueton has pretty much dominated PR music culture and radio for the last couple of years, and especially now that it's "popier", I mean I like to see a girl shake her ass as much as the next guy but after the first 1000 songs I want to listen to something else....
