Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

Re: Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

Jackalope, I caught the first part of your set and loved it. I'm a big fan of drumelectrobass. It's always good to have a DJ playing stuff that will actually get people up to dance, instead of sitting around the room. Sorry I never came up to you and said anything, but I was busy getting hammered.

Re: Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

god, someone give me some sort of estimate as to when the board recordings will pop up online. i'm laying here (well, sitting here now) completely unable to sleep despite the fact that i ran on pure adrenaline and good vibe for the past 36+ hours and the main reason i can't get a wink of shuteye is because the band and DJ sets just keep playing over and over in my head. i'm so dying to download them.

I got regenerator going right now....it is hard to come down from that defcon high. You get used to the vibe, that feel, then it is all stripped away by this reality thing. I am still mad that regenerator got screwed, I really like their stuff, hope they come back next year.

I had a bit of an akward moment yesterday morning when the girl at my coffee shop asked for my name and told her "jur1st" while wearing my sweet hackerpimps hat.

My buddy fr3ak had to go to work yesterday and simply couldn't take it and ended up leaving at 3.

I'm anxiously awaiting the sets as well since I my memory is really hazy of what happened once I reached Black.

Work today sucks. Can't talk. Tired. Want to start building the Mystery Boxes for next year... ;)

Re: Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

ck3k i can assure you that regenerator will play again next year . I talked things over with them and seeing as they got a awful raw deal with the shutdown of the white ball I felt that they needed a second chance . so provided defcon isnt cancelled next year regenerator will play .

I helped regenerator recover some of their gear on Sunday and they seemed pretty cool, in spite of all the goings on. I think I'm gonna go see them this Thursday when they play locally.

Deviant, that reminds me. I never got your DVD to you. If you are still interested, I'll just post the files on my website and let you leach them. Conversely, I could send them snail mail to you, but that would take longer :)

Re: Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

ya know... all of this of course is hindsight.... Regenerator should have been moved to one of the Renegade parties....cuz when I throw raves, when the police shut down a room, we just figure out another.

Yup. I love the electrostep. It gets kids dancing and they don't know why. I knew you Floridians were running around somewhere. If you were busy getting hammered, you were doing your first DC correctly.

Awesome, they always have an awesome set. I really hope to catch the full thing next year. I got a couple of their cds, so I am content for a little while ;) I just want them to know how we feel about them getting screwed, and I do suppose we owe them some beer.

Re: Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

Is there any chance of combining the Black and White balls again? The crowds seemed a little thin for how fantastic the music was, especially at the Black Ball. Maybe schedule the combined Ball for Friday and the big penthouse party for Saturday? (this was my first year, so if I'm suggesting the way it's been done in the past, my apologies.)

I promise to still dress up twice.

I should also say thanks to all those who put in the extra effort to wear something interesting, and to those who booted out the people in jeans and baseball caps.

What wonderful freaks we are.


Oh, and Mixtress Jackalope? Thought you'd want to see this:

Re: Saturday Night DJ Action (White Ball)

Well, before you go out tomorrow night, they cancelled the Portland/Seattle shows this week.

I helped regenerator recover some of their gear on Sunday and they seemed pretty cool, in spite of all the goings on. I think I'm gonna go see them this Thursday when they play locally.
