aww the memories... nation was definitely a good night! loved the lineup & especially the venue; it was sweet partying in a dark venue surrounded by huge vacant buildings... they actually filmed "fast and furious" and a bunch of other shit there. qbert & mixmastermike performances were the shit! & that was the 2nd time i saw djdan & glaude.. was a bigtime fan for sometime afterwards. surprised no one mentioned audio 2000. seemed EVERYONE was there. people i grew up with, lb state heads, etc.

Nice!!!!!! Can't stand it when we meet people & there like I love trance or house, go on & on about how much thety're into it acting like they know more about it then us or anyone for that matter & then you hop in their car & what's coming from the speakers....hip hip yuck! You know a true trance addict by whether they listen to it in their car, that's definitely one way of telling.

knowing the original mp3.com dates us. makes me feel old! all these kids these days are like huh? mp3.com? whats that? or audiogalaxy same thing.

and yes i do...but..im pretty sure its fucked cause i have a bunch of mp3 cds that will never work correctly due to the storage method i chose at the time. now they are in a cd case but they were just in a spindle in my car. ill try to dig it up and see what i can do but im pretty sure its not going to be very good if i can get it off.

Monster Massive of ???? .. the year they had the producers of "better off alone" Pronti & Kalmani play @ the outside tent >

took me 3 hours to get in .. was only able to stay for 1 1/2 hour .. but Pronti & Kalmani made my night!

Been listening to electronic music since way back (Jean Michelle Jarre on cassette, anyone?). Never really got out. So first EDM experience was Heaven 1 yr anniversary/white party with Blank and Jones, 2/18/05. Drove up from San Diego with a friend who I knew for years but never knew was into trance until just before, and Kristina Sky convinced me that being in the 30s didn't preclude us from going and enjoying ourselves.

Had a great night. Paid for VIP and met Blank and Jones, had them sign the white pants I'd bought for the event. lol Still got pics online:
My pics from Heaven white party

Since then have been to AvB and Tiesto, but BnJ was the best so far. Going to AvB tomorrow night with same said friend for our approx once a year night out for EDM..

RAVE-"emeral city" in sacramento 1996-I took acid for the first time and Barry Weaver came on, I thought I had died and went to heaven


Club-1015 with Anthony Pappa in 2000...Still to this day one of the best sets I have ever heard

The Shamen at the Spruce Goose (Technoflight?). I think that was '92. I was overdressed (never happened since). Next one was Double Hit Mickey out by Morongo (I think).

Very good thread indeed!

My first rave/club was Teknoklub in ktown in Jan/Feb of 2001. I was with my aspiring-actress roommate at the time, and she really wanted to check it out so I accompanied her along w/ some friends she met at her work (Abercrombie on 3rd Street Promenade). Wow, what an eye-opening experience. Everyone was making-out everywhere.

After that, I didn't go to any events until Giant NYE 2002 w/ Paul Van Dyk, Sasha, Junkie XL, etc. At the time, I didn't even really knew who they were.

Since that night, I really got into the music and started downloading sets. It was the year where Red and Spundae was really happening, and I swear, I went almost every weekend! There was a group of people that called themselves the Spundae Junkies who I rarely see anymore. Overall, good times, good times...

Here's a pic of some of the Spundae Junkies.



The good old days!
