I truly cannot see this event going over well as the venue is more or less in the middle of town. It is technically on the edge of town but it is surround by residential area and the main business strip of the city. Anything you could possibly need is within a 10 minute walk from the centre of the venue (a large mall, grocery stores, canadian tire, sears, zellers, all fast food places etc etc.) It's right at the end of the main drag that supports a city of 50,000+ plus so do the math. |
are you coming?!?!!?! |

REALLY... wow. At the end of pride me and Blackness ran into Rebecca and Kelly who are from St Kits. and they were SHOCKED AS HELL when we told them WEMF would be in there area, Welland.
THey asked where, all we could say (being drunk and not having a map or knowing the area) was that it was at the "Fairgrounds" that was around that area.
Kelly said it was like practically near where she lived, close close drive... she lives in teh sticks from that are. She said that area woudl be perfect...
but I guess she was drunk so u gotta take that into account, and we're just assuming the area she assumed it was was the area where it actually is, based on our telling her "the fairgrounds"
is there any place arfound there she could prolly maybe be mistaking confusing it with?
i am saddened. i was so happy when they thought the location woudl be ok, ie. not too close to houses that would cause trouble.
p.s. this a drunkkkk post, so sorry if my sentences are off, i apologize in advnance. lol |

Jem, I'm from welland. You got the location right, its at the end of niagara st. Its close to the mall, boston pizza, canadian tire. The beer store is further down, 5 min drive.
There are some houses when u drive towards the city, but its not that much. If they keep the main stages inside, it shouldn't be too bad. Outside stages won't be able to run all night. I want the techno and house to be inside and keep the dnd n jungle outside!
I'm excited for donald glaude, preach, liberator, dekoze, jelo, deadmau5. This will be my 1st wemf. The welland location solde me! I'm about 10 min drive from the event, will be easy to go home n showa etc etc.
We'll see how welland turns out for such an event. I would of preferred it to be in the boons where noise would not be an issue.
If the main stage is in the fairground building, not much sound will leak out
If you have more questions bout welland, post em. Ill try to answer them over the wkend from my bbery |

What you mentioned has 0 chance of happening cause Pendulum is the biggest draw out of all the artists, and you can bet your left testicle they'll be on at night. |

doesnt seem to unique and interesting for the canada scene. i had higher hopes for the lineup this year. i dont know what the aim of this festival is really but the name of it as a world electronic music festival seems a let down. That line up is totally a north american music festival if you see what im saying.
theres alot of good djs there and itll be a good party. this year it doesnt seem like they have too much variety in the music. i would just think a festival like this wouldnt go with just what is "in" around here, you know maybe try to push the boudaries a bit. if u want typical house or dnb or breaks its not hard find.
im not complaining there arent too many big headliners thats a good thing actually so dont get me wrong. this lineup though seems quite bland with a few exceptions for the calibre of festival this could be. preach was a good call to book though im not hating on him. |
