The outside area was great and everyone there was totally up for it, no Miami pretention to be found...a very nice change! I'll be there again.

I'll second that. I was there from about 7-10 and 11-4 and that place just wouldn't fuckin' stop. I'll definitely be returning next year. Seems like quite the fitting place for some 10th anniversary antics.

BTW, Mr. C was playing a banging set upstairs. He played a remix of Booka Shade's Wont Back down. I've been waking up with the song in my head every day since. I'm now on the hunt for live sets from him or any of the Crosstown Rebels tour. Good shit.

+1 Get Lost was definitely the party of the conference for me this year.

Same with me. I stayed pretty much from open-close.

Review to come later.

The bald bartender at the Electric Pickle was certainly one of the crazy things! At Get Lost while he was in the middle of serving us, he stopped, shouted 'Where's my Adderall', dug it out from behind the bar, and proceeded to wash it down with about 3 shots of vodka, and then jumped up on the bar and shouted 'Whaddya want!!'

Then at Hot Natured, we went up again, and he asked us to give him an easy order as he'd just taken 3 pills! Just about sums up that place I think!

hahahahahaha! That dude was amazing. He was twitching the whole time he was making drinks. I saw him try to open a beer bottle and it smashed against the wall. He stopped for a second and then continued going absolutely bonkers. Too funny. Fuck that party ruled.

He got cut and asked to leave because he was bleeding all over the place.

Apparently that it is a bit of a work place hazard... lol.

He said he enjoys making drinks for us as much as we enjoyed having him as our bartender. He was bonkers.

This party is one of the best I have been to. I have gone to WMC the last 5 years and this tops it.

I was so happy I almost made the entire stretch...

I was also happy to share sunscreen with anyone around me when I finally made it out to the terrace.

Can we have a do over?

I sat and talked to him for a while at the end of Get Lost.. He came out of a 10 yr bartending retirement and moved from the midwest for that job.. He loves the crazy people he works with and the enviroment.. I don't blame him.. Place is fucking nuts every weekend and twice as nuts during conference.. Plus his boss is one of the coolest mother******s in Miami..

Ask the Miami locals what they think of hip hop week? They will say they love WMC.

The one cab driver we had said almost all the drivers work extra hours during WMC and almost all the cars are on the road.

He mentioned it is the busiest weekend that the most drivers work.

He thought Memorial Day might be a bit busier but that only about 65% of the drivers are willing to work.

He also mentioned that Collins, Washington and Ocean are lined with Cops and it is a much diffferent atmosphere during that weekend.
