Anyone going? Is it worth going? What's good to check out? I was looking at THE LIST and there doesn't seem to be as many parties as in years past---I especially like the sunrise parties

stones throw party is friday, other than that and a few scattered things here and there - not much to shout about, but then I'm not big on its primary purpose.

What's good to check out?

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 03:04 (eighteen years ago)

(sorry bout the also's....)

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 03:17 (eighteen years ago)

also it's okay

― lfam, Friday, 16 March 2007 03:44 (eighteen years ago)

The MAW party does look good , but it's not on the beach. Y Ultralounge on NW 14th Street---where is that?

― Jaded, Friday, 16 March 2007 11:57 (eighteen years ago)

downtown or wynwood, i need the avenue

― lfam, Friday, 16 March 2007 16:17 (eighteen years ago)

oh dude, that's right by the 395 causeway on the mainland

― lfam, Friday, 16 March 2007 16:18 (eighteen years ago)

all of these "it isn't a beach though" comments are kind of dumb... the beach is going to be impossible to get on or off and it will also be kind of gross. i'll be glad to steer clear of it.

― lfam, Friday, 16 March 2007 16:20 (eighteen years ago)

yeah but the beach is where most stuff is happening and that's where i'll be and it's going to be a hassle getting on and off, like you said

― Jaded, Friday, 16 March 2007 20:58 (eighteen years ago)

yeah but you could stay on the mainland where it's nice or you could stay on the beach where it will be wall-to-wall sweaty dorks in the streets

― lfam, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

lol

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:27 (eighteen years ago)

ok Ifam , what do you suggest? I have a place i can stay on the mainland, but then driving back and forth to the beach is going to be a hassle. are you saying that the only parties worth attending are off the beach?

what i'm bummed about is there don't seem to be as many sunrise parties ...like starting at 6am

― Jaded, Friday, 16 March 2007 22:48 (eighteen years ago)

ps jaded- it's el-fam, not eye-fam. fuckin italics.

i'd say just go where looks good. then again, i am not from miami, only a sometimes visitor.

― the table is the table, Saturday, 17 March 2007 01:45 (eighteen years ago)

i don't know if i can help you, jaded, i'm just hating on tourists i guess

― lfam, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:19 (eighteen years ago)

i only wanna go to see derrick may and reese and stacey pullen and that's on the mainland so i'm happy

― lfam, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:20 (eighteen years ago)

i'm not much of a clubgoer

― lfam, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:24 (eighteen years ago)

all i can say is that when i go to the beach during memorial day weekend that shit is packed, from the hotels to the restaurants to the beach to the streets and at least that crowd isn't hopped up on e and acid.

― lfam, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:25 (eighteen years ago)

seriously lfam, whahappent to pennington? did that fall?

― the table is the table, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:28 (eighteen years ago)

i guess it did, judging from the UR website. *sigh*

― the table is the table, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:34 (eighteen years ago)

i don't know what the deal is with it but i think that mayday reese and kosmic messenger would be better than pennington and blake baxter

― lfam, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:53 (eighteen years ago)

you are probably right-- i've been dying to see mayday for a while... but they are different nights? i guess it all depends on whether our legs can stand. and $.

― the table is the table, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:58 (eighteen years ago)

a complete listing of all events going on during the conference can be found here

― the table is the table, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 02:30 (eighteen years ago)

that list is by no means complete.

― UncleTomfly, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 10:23 (eighteen years ago)

ok so what are we missing Uncle Tomfly? Fill us in.

― Jaded, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 12:17 (eighteen years ago)

i didn't mean 'complete' when i wrote that, sorry.

i mean, no list like that is ever complete. better than nothing, tho.

― the table is the table, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 21:50 (eighteen years ago)

more here

― the table is the table, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 23:03 (eighteen years ago)

Go see my droid buddies on wednesday:
Flight 18 feat Adam Bayer, Miss Kitten, Matthew Dear, Slam

― sous les paves, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 23:27 (eighteen years ago)

i cannot believe how poorly attended mayday/reese was last night. fun!

― lfam, Thursday, 22 March 2007 16:45 (eighteen years ago)

let's hear it for mr. burridge, i think. only cuz he kept it more varied and interesting.

― the table is the table, Thursday, 22 March 2007 17:08 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, lee burridge was pretty great. he played really atonal bleepy techno and then slid into this tuneless free jazz shit with really compressed kicks.

― lfam, Thursday, 22 March 2007 18:43 (eighteen years ago)

that list didn't have the monday el=p gig and the stones throw party tomorrow night, which are highlights of the damn thing

― UncleTomfly, Friday, 23 March 2007 02:03 (eighteen years ago)

I remember back when I was into the trance scene and Gabriel and Dresden did this kick ass set must of been wmc 2005. It was finger licking good...started with an acappella by the perfect circle and went into a anni defranko (I think) remix and then a jewel song....very electro-tech-clash-ish

ring a bell to anyone? I really wish I still had it.
