hhmmm i duno, TA stage was mostly grass
DNB on the other hand was ing DIIIIRRRTTTT, especially when capital J came on. It was like everybody dancing tadada fast music, kicking dust with their feet, then boom dj gives a little break every1 stops and all you see is a giant cloud of dust all over and you are in it. Breathing it in.
so in comparison, i'd say TA stage was good |

Not the best WEMF but good none the less... no crazy WEMF stories, but lots of goot times... Thank you again aaron and tammy for the lift. ur car makes a comfortable bed haha, and falling alseep to the music in the back seat prepped me quite well for sleep at WEMF.
My camara got stolen in the first two hours there.(the bright side: i guess it is better this cuz we took lots more pics with other ppls cams, unlike last year when it got stolen right at the end thus leaving me mostly pictureless. i think im just not meant to have pics.)
the music was good, especially the Beat Freakers set at 3 am saturday, and krafty kuts cor the 15 mins i was there. Also: fleming was decent, and Chris liberator at the renegade stage was f-in insane.
This year is prolly the dirtiest WMEF by far. The dust was a lil out of control. My formerly black dancing shoes are a nice shade of WEMF brown, and my tent is covered in a thick layer of dirt(which disappointingly ill have to un roll and wash -__-, deffinatly more work than i signed up for.)
all in all it was good times as usual. WEMF is still my favourite holiday of the year.
Here's to next year's being a tad cleaner.
{EDIT} : The Rev Girls gave me their shirts! BOOYA! i have official Rev apparel. |

Alright...
Left K-W at 10AM on Friday morning, took our time getting there seeing as we thought the park opened at 12 noon, not midnight the night before.
We arrived at the park at about 2:30, and finally got in around 5:30. We were finished setting up and finding a campsite by 6:30ish. Unfortunately, when we arrived there were already loads of people swarming the park, and the TA area we had chosen was looking really cramped, so we bailed and took a site up in the "middle of nowhere" area. Luckily for us, it turned out awesome. It was generally quiet, we could have proper campfires and stuff, and the setup we had was pretty sweet. I was very pleased with our site.
After setting up, we took a trip down to the four four stage to see Dennis and Andrews set. We saw about 15 mins of Dennis' set, (THEY WERE STILL SETTING EVERYTHING UP!!) and then left thinking it would be best to get back and take care of some things (bathroom etc.) On our way back, we found poor Aaron wandering around aimlessly looking for the Nor'easter stage, which apparently hadn't even been put up at that point.
We went back to our site, and the other half of our group had arrived and finished setting up, so we whipped out the alcohol.
First night, I drank about 750mL of malibu rum mixed with some iced tea, so needless to say, and I think colnelcrisp can vouch for me when I do say, I was trashed off my arse. We went down to the four four stage and I danced my little heart out, but unfortunately they shut down the stage around 2AM. Our group had sorta fallen apart, so I found a friend and we stumbled our way back to the site.
Once we got back, I passed out in a car, and then had to get in between two moron guys starting a fight (one of them was in my group). I kept yelling "I'M A 90 POUND GIRL! ARE YOU GOING TO HIT A 90 POUND GIRL?!?!" LOL!!! It worked for quite a while, and after a few shoves I couldn't block, help arrived and we were able to keep them apart and calm them down. Stupid male pride/dominance B.S. Hey dumbass, (you know who you are,) you're a dumbass.... no seriously. :p
Anyway, the night was pretty nutty. I massively pushed myself, which I regretted later because all day and night Saturday, I was feeling pretty ty. I will definitely make a reminder to myself for next time not to go so hardcore.
Saturday we took it really easy. We woke up, lazed around, then napped, and got up again. After my nap, I went to take a potty break, and while waiting in line, I had people looking at me really weird. I was standing there thinking to myself, "do I have something on my face? Do I look strange or something?" Finally, this girl pipes up and asks "are you Theresa?" It threw me off a little, but it turned out it was some fellow TA's recognizing me. It was neat meeting you Adi, Callie, and Newr. Callie, you are a REALLY pretty girl. :)
Callie and Newr told me that DJ Robben AKA Mike had been taken to the hospital. I really hope you're ok dude. Seriously, Imma kick your ass if you don't get better and take care of yourself!!! :whip:
Saw tonnes of other TA's, some of which were absolutely freakin' rude. I was a little shocked at how ignorant some of you were. I clearly said hello to a group of TA's I recognized, and you all just snubbed me and walked away. If you are going to be a part of a community, I suggest you drop your little cliquey B.S. qualms with people, and have a little courtesy to at least say hello. :rolleyes:
Stayed sober Saturday night and went to the four four stage. Missed Anne :( Ended up going back to our site and crashing. I was soooo hungover/tired. Saw a lot of people!!
Nice to see Me@tkatie, Vidman, ColnelCrisp, JemHadar (got a good pic of you dude,) Adi, Aaron, Dannie, Andrew, Drew, Dennis, MaxTO, Benny, Tammy, Lopi, Peter and Laura (nice to finally meet you!! I think I was drunk when I was talking to you, because I don't remember much of what we talked about,) Penny, PartEGurl - my fellow recycling fanatic! Love to you hun, you're a massive sweety pie :) Newr and Callie, and the "black man" (that's what you told me to call you... I never did find out your name,) and of course Del and Magdalena ("YOU SMELL SO GOOD!!!") Hahaha, Magdalena, you are seriously hilarious... got a fricken great photo of you too :) Oh, and the people I came with... thanks for making the weekend really great :) I  you guys!
If I forgot you, it is most likely because I was too trashed to remember I met you ;) LOL!!
Overall, the venue was not what I expected, but better than last years. The music was fantastic, the people were pretty awesome (so friendly and nice :)) I am exhausted now, so I am off to bed. If I think of anything else to say later, I will mention it.
EDIT: I think I have the time screwed up a little... Dennis, did you play 5-6? |

true enough. the front area of the ta stage was dirt as well but nothing like the dnb stage.

haha i was wondering how much fun u were having tryin to get pics! ours are pretty blurry and well there's a certain angle that makes me look like a cartoon character..ya most are that damn angle oh well im not perfect by far but like to have a blast anyways hehe. least we got 1 pic from someone else thanks hehe
ya the brown/black "boogers" were just plain annoying and still having some issues with it lol not to mention the nostrils arent meant to be exfoliated! lol
lastnight i finally figured out how to zip up the sleeping bag only to find a HUGE pile of sand in it that i had to shake out .. tent looks like a beach volleyball court lol michelle slept through all my huffing and puffing and throwing of sleeping bag then there was sleep! hehehe
great times for sure!

taking pics from the stage is the best. you can see people doing all kinds of weird/funny/cool things and i just take a pic of it. it sure beats walking through the crowd and looking for stuff. and the lens i was using last night belongs to my sister. 28-105mm with USM so it sure beats my 18-55mm piece of . i didnt want wacked people hitting or even breaking the lens.
nostrils arent supposed to be exfoliated? damn it, you should've told me sooner. not only do i exfoliate but i also get microdremabrasion.
and i could never camp there. i would feel so dirty.
check your pm's. |

Finally woke up again from another nap hehe. What can I say other than what a freak show. Between the group of girls dressed as fairies, bunch of people walking around in robot suits, to the creepy tailer park white people stumbling around hitting everyone, and straight out creepy guys rubbing their balls while watching girls dance. I actually had quite a good time with my friends at our campsite staying away from the zoo that was the main area of WEMF. I pretty much went for the rock music, and caught the two bands I went for (controller.controller. and broken social scene and a bit of Pilate) and inbetween all that free time I was walking to the trance addict stage and pretty mcuh dancing for a few hours before relaxing at our camp site in the North west corner of the map. I didnt get to see many of you, but for the few I did, was good to see you guys. Max, Ben, and that cutie friend of yours (Josie, Johanne?) thanks for showing me around some times and chilling out a bit. Shame we didnt get to see much more of each other, but after awhile I really wanted to stay away from the middle area and just chill out at the campsite. Anyhow, good times, but definately trying to stay away from WEMF for some time again. :p
Hope to see you all at LOL. |

Well to each their own, I wouldnt be surprised if people didnt want to say hello to me, but I make myself as friendly as possible and try to have a good time. No one really owes anyone anything, but if you introduced yourself as a TA, I definately would be a good host at my campsite and make you feel welcomed just because id share good times with decent normal looking people instead of all the crazy random sketchbags that were there. |
