Not a real MC... just a stupid promoter sayin shit about future events or something. I wasn't really paying too much attention to him.



On another note.. DevanteS, was that you that was trying to sell us the ticket? I was next to uwmadtrance wearing a dark green kenneth cole shirt. and yes... FCUK = French Connection UK

not a problem. I saw you walking by and i said to bob "i think that's devantes," but neither of us was sure. we were standing in a group near the curb deciding if we wanted to enter or not yet. we ended up going to some really weird bar across the street called Saxony... what a hole in the wall that turned out to be. Hung out there for a little bit while we waited other friends of ours, then got in line.... a friend of our has $200 confiscated, if you know what i'm talking about...

Yeah PvD was visibly annoyed by that you could tell.

Not to mention to the doofuses posting requests! Yeah I wanted to hear "Diving" too but I'm not so arrogant as to tell a professional like PvD what to play! Sheesh! If I had a phone that supported that function I wanted to message "How about you let PvD play what the $@#! he wants!"

Enough negativity! I had a great time! My muscles were like spaghetti afterwards and even today during my softball game. But that's a good feeling, and I will get a lot of sleep tonight

Sorry I didn't get to meet more of you. I was the guy in the handicapped area standing next to my buddy who came in on crutches. I didn't want to ditch him to go find people so...

omg... yea he was. I was standing in the front row of the balcony looking at him... he was looking up at the speakers with a look of disgust on his face shaking his head... i wanted someone to pull the plug on the announcer.

WTF? A dub version or something? My two bathroom breaks were not THAT long, and I didn't catch a buzz at all last night. This is seriously disturbing.

Hey I live a mile west of there and walked home no problem. It's a wacky neighborhood, but if you know where the heck you're going and know how to handle yourself in a city it's no problemo.

Phyrestorm I've never heard of the Saxony. I imagine Green Mill was either not open or already charging a cover at that point? That would have been the obvious hangout otherwise...

4 Strings - Diving (Original Mix)


There is also a 4 Strings - Diving (Original Vocal Mix), which is probably what you are referring to, and why you didn't notice it.

You can tell how hot it got by looking at how my hair progressed throughout the pictures (in chronological order).



Outside the Riviera...


Pvdfan and me... and mc hammer behind Pvdfan... wtf? mcHammer?!?!?! at a pvd gig?! wtf!!


Me & Ckytep..pvd in the background (faint)


Jess, rubyriva, me


jess, rubyriva, me...by this time it was so hot we were melting


Blake613, retrokat, me

We saw the Green Mile... don't ask me why we didn't go in. Oh... I remember why now. We saw the Saxony from in front of the Riviera, and crossed the street. THEN, we saw the Green Mill, which was across the street in the other direction, and for some reason, we just kept walking to Saxony. Shady place.... liquor store w/ a plastic window as part of the bar... *shivers*

omg... i think i was right behind you guys in that pic. I remember the MC Hammer dude, and I think I might have talked to Pvdfan... don't really know. It was dark on the dancefloor, but talked to someone who looked very much like him, if it wasn't him.


oh, and for the record, RubyRiva is very cute


*listens to Marco V - I Feel You (PvD Remix) and remembers last night*
