Sorry for the late review team, I went to sleep yesterday at noon, and didn't get up until this morning for work.
So I was able to get out of work and go to this, yay! Went to 2 other parties first, one at a friend's house and one at Kala's (KayKay) house. So in hindsight... I was drinking for close to 14 hours. Good times ;) Took a 2:30 train into the city and got to Love a little before 4. They graciously offered me the opportunity to pay $50 to go in then, but I declined.
Got inside and Tae was playing in the front room. Tae, you were right, you did play some crazy I loved it! Not sure who was playing in the back room, but they were excellent as well. The only bad news bears thing about the evening was that they wouldn't give us open bar when we got there. I have no issue with the staff themselves, I'm sure they were following instructions from someone up above. But I was told straight to my face, while holding a flyer that says "OPEN WELL BAR 4AM - 5 AM!!!", that it was a misprint. Now how do you misprint that on a billion flyers that were handed out all over the city? FTW They finally did open beer bar for like a half hour until 5:30, but it was still effed up that they didn't do it right in the first place.
Other than that, everything was perfect! I was hard pressed for the rest of the evening to choose between the front and back rooms. Again I wish I was better with the track ids, but they were playing some really good stuff in the back. I wandered into the front for a bit and someone was playing Pryda - Muranyi. Love that song! After a while Zack and some other guy were switching back and forth in the front and it was awesome!
Oh yea, and every guido from all of Jersey hit on me and bought me drinks. It was hilarious/slightly scary :toothless :D :toothless
Lovely seeing Zack 'n Keryn, Tae, Jay 'n Mere, Drew, Matt, Chris, and Frances. :D
I only have a few pics, but I think Meredith has some too.

yeah sorry about the open bar thing. I had 5 people come up to me in like a 1 minute time span to tell me the bar tenders weren't giving out free drinks. They realized the only thing that would be doable was free Bud Selects, which they gave out all night until they ran out. Sorry about that though guys, that was the first time we had a party @ Love that had an open bar, and obviously there were some communication mishaps. They will most definitely be taken care of for any future parties that have any kind of open bar. Again, our apologies.
that being said, it was a fun night. Great seeing a lot of familiar faces out and about on one of the biggest party nights of the year. Happy new year. Looking forward to a big 2008. :happy2: |

All for nothing but don't you think Love is a little too small of a place to be winging glow sticks around on a ing string? What nerve you have to take up so much space......like you're God's gift to raving and you can do whatever the you wanna do in the club.:rolleyes: Hate to be so harsh but this is just played out not to mention dangerous!......learn how to dance for real and save the strings for the warehouse raves. That being said.....I hate to be the next kid that hits me with one of these things......the first one almost didn't make it out alive!;) |

Sorry bro but I am gonna have to agree with vtec. Its not about him hating on what you are into, its the fact that you are in a tiny ass place like love with strings. strings are really not cool in just about ANY venue (look at how miserable the people were at tyas because of people whipping those s around!!)
<----I have no problem, personally, with people who use glowsticks without strings when there is SPACE. But people who use stings think that just because the place is half empty that they wont hit anyone, and then get mad when people walking/dancing "mess up their flow." that is such bull...you are trying to tell me that I need to duck and dodge you everytime I go in your direction, get whapped in the head, and YOU are pissed. I would tell the guy who acted in this manner to off, personally
(this is not directed at you but you get the point: no one cares if you wanna string but you need to be rational about the time and place that you are doing it). |
