It was my 7th WEMF. Not the best, but definitely one of my favorites, for various reasons.
This was the first year that it "wasn't about the music" for me. it was about the friends and the good times with them. Previously there were new acts that I really wanted to catch, or I was playing myself and had excitement built around that.
But, I still had a blast. The venue was my hometown, and that felt kinda weird. I didn't mind the 4/4 or Jungle room at all. the short carpet was great to dance on, and wasn't hard on your feet.
The DJ sets that I did catch (Reid Speed, Dj Icey, Mark Eg, Chris Liberator, MSTKRFT, Deadmau5) all put on great performances and great sets. The lighting and visuals were as good as any WEMF, and the vibe was awesome. The air circulation was also fantastic, considering the situation. Even with packed room, it wasn't really that hot....and things have been much worse before.
The only disappointment was the hardsounds stage. It seems like each year, they're not given serious consideration by the organizers. A few years ago, it was a back room sweat box with little-to-no access for the first 5 hours of saturday. It's also sad, because last year people ate the stuff up when the outdoors closed. The Hardcore room was the busiest it's been since Dunnville, even with the heat of that room in Tweed.
So, all in all a great WEMF with friends and my girlfriend, who survived her first. Thanks Destiny, and thanks to everybody who gave something for the food drive! |

The mom just saw the sunburn I got... and really thinks I need to see the doctor... 7 days, 1 week later, and sections of it on my shoulders arent even remotely healed... still firey red. It's peeled, but underneath it's STILL just as red as it was last Saturday when I got it.
Godbless the sun. No wonder I was in so much pain last Sat night lol |

No kidding!! :(
Liebing at Footwork last month came pretty damn close, though he had very minimally sections in his 3 hour set. |

they said in the papers it will take them 2 weeks to clean the site. They realized they ed up by not putting enough bins for people!
destiny was smart, in their contract they said the owner will clean the site after the event, not destiny! |
