All the clubs/shows I went to in downtown Miami (aside from Ultra) were disasters. I don't really think Ultra is going anywhere. And aside from that, if the clubbing district in downtown does go down, I don't see why all the clubs in South Beach (which are a hundred times better anyways) couldn't continue to host a slew of amazing DJs for a week in March for years to come. |

I was talking to someone who works for the city and all, and asked him whats with all the fire-marshall's and what not. And I think that we can come to a logical understanding.
We all know how packed Space has gotten at times and other venues, where they feed the club to full capacity. There have been clubs getting burned out that were way overloaded like that of New York and other's.. now, the City has full responsability to follow up on how the owners/promoters are handling the venue correctly without filling it up to full capacity. I for one think that it is a good idea that greedy owner's or promoters get some type of control on the amount of people that go to an event. It sucks that some shows do get sold out, but they are expected to be... I'm one who goes against Sardine style packed venues and if Fire Marshall's go and do their job correctly then all good. Its a whole total different story if they just go to a party without an excuse and just mess up with it, but looking it from a city's point of view, it all comes down to the safety of those attending.. if something were to happen everyone will know where the blame will go to.
I did NOT see any incident other that Space problem. And if there was a lot of police in downtown, then that's a good thing, it needs it, and its also good to have them present at parties, because I saw some real uneducated drug addicts everywhere, and those are the ones that end up bringing the scene down.
PS: Now the politics on the Park west district its a WHOLE different story from that of WMC so I don't associate it with the conference. WMC has grown.. I DO think that the weather had a lot to do with a lot of the vibe, and I think that this WMC had the best free all around parties quality DJ's all over the place. |

i dunno, i guess some of you guys are just missing my point here.
im not asking if you had a good time or not, im asking how much longer you think wmc will last? cuz as much as i would like it to last until im 40, i highly doubt its got another 5 years.

as far as cops go... i agree we need more in miami but only during wmc, just on the sidewalks to keep things under control. if you have drugs don't be a ing idiot, act normal, & keep it in a girls bra if possible. lol.
last year i went to wmc with my girl abby & our 2 guys. i can't remember what club we were going to... i think it was space to see pvd. anyways we found a cheap parking lot, parked, & were walking to the club. well there was some homeless guy sitting on the sidewalk. we walked passed him & next thing you know he's following us, he follows us maybe 3 blocks, next thing i know my man whispers to us that he has a hold of his pants & was holding them mid thigh and was clearly jacking off. not gonna lie it was probably the scariest wmc moment... |

agreed how one cant have fun at wmc and dwell on the negatives, when the positives by far out weigh them is beyond me. go to what makes you happy and everything else. pissing about the lines at space during wmc is the equivalent to bitching about the rain in seattle, its just a fact of life, deal with it. and no matter what you say SPACE DOES NOT SUCK. endostory. |

no its only one of the best in the world, when dj's vote, but yah it sucks bad
anyhow wmc is better every year, theres more people coming which is all that matters...its a cash cow for that week, and attracts a ton people in one week
there are big huge flag things all over the city with wmc, on buses and , miami is clubland, and unless that changes wmc is staying put
not to mention south beach on its own with or without the 24 hr district is where alot happens. the whole scene there is a perfect match for it, better than vegas which has no beach, thats the end of that deal, no beach, no breeze, no dope hotel pools that aren't hot as hell no wmc.
miami is king for that reason when it comes to the wmc, and as far as fire marshalls and all, its been happening to a few parties every yr on the beach for many years, yet more people come every year and miami makes ALOT of money
see you in 08

I always have the best time and I hate it when people bitch and moan. I had to stay away from a few friends I went down with because they were seeing the negatives in everything while I was loving it. "The line sucks. The crowd sucks. They music sucks." Well, don't ing come if you're not patient, or if all you're going to do is criticize the people and the music. I'm on vacation, in a clubber's paradise, and I'm loving every minute of it. I know things won't go perfectly well and I've planned for that. the haters. I can't wait for '08 and I'll go by myself if it means I won't have to listen to complainers.
Thanks for listening to my pent-up frustrations! |

Spacemasters, its pretty funny, because Im hearing from the other side of the isle ( The house crowd ) That their parties sucked and that there was no vibe on those parties. Big turn off on a lot of them.. :conf: |
I heard Steve Lawler at Twilo was THE house party of WMC. |
