To everyone who came to milkSHAKE

All!e · #1 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

Thank you so much for all the support you gave us. You came out and well for our first ever party - in my opinion it was a complete success! I hope everyone had a good time - overall I had a great time. All of our dj's played great sets - so that made the night awesome!!

With the exception of two incidents the whole night went smooth - but overall everything ran smoother then I thought it would, so that's nice.

Thanks to all our dj's
Ryan, Clay, Eric, Adam, Kraig, Amman, Lex, Kevin, Matthew, Bret, Sean, Chris, Rhiannon, Christine, Shaun & Sinister [sorry I don’t' know your name & sorry if any spelling's are wrong].

Eric - thanks for all your help - you made everything make sense in terms of sound :) Thank you so much.

Kraig - thanks with your help messing around with the line up - it could have been a disaster.

Rhia - thank you so much for helping me out and playing in the morning :) you make the morning shakin' - people kept telling me how much they loved your set :)

To Adrienne, Bev, Michelle, Cass, Kenji & Tim - we wouldn't have been able to pull this off without you guys.

And I'd like to thank Jason [my boyfriend] and Chris [meg's boyfriend] for all the help they gave us. Without you two, we would probably still be setting up, lol. Jason you gave me so much help through the whole thing - I am uber lucky to have you. You two put so much into this event for us - we owe you big time. Next time don’t worry, you wont have to do all the set up & take down!! And you wont have to put up with my bitchy stress level's either :D Thank you two so much.

Megan thank you for being my partner :) We didn't get in any poo poo. You had an awesome idea back in November and look what it turned into. We did it!! Next time hopefully it wont take so long to make happen. Thank you for everything - this was a lot of fun & a lot of stress - but in the end it was all worth it.

And to me - next time get more people to help ;) And sleep more - and sleep more ....

Thank you to everyone - it was a blast .... until next time ...

` Allie

ps. Yuire [sorry for spelling] - You helped us out SO much. Thank you for everything you did. You helped us with everything to do with set up and take down ... you even helped out with the door. Thank you for all the time you put into our event, you made the party happen in terms of sound and light. Without you we would probably still be there trying to figure out how everything works :) [I forgot to add your originally, so as my second post says, give me an email to the address below]

thanks everyone.

Good to know all my promo went un-noted. Anytime!

So what was all that buzz awhile back about donations to FNK..

LostBoyScout · #3 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

Good post Allie!!

I echo everything you said!!

Huge thanks to Craive for the tons of help he was with bringing in the sound and light equipment, all the set up, take-down, and he even helped out during the rave doing security and more, he went WAY above the call of duty for us!! Masterplan really came through for us, we got a hell of a setup from them and they really hooked us up.

I was happy to be a part of it, working for almost 30 hours straight was extremely tough but it payed off in the end; Allie, Megan, Chris, we made a good team! All but a couple of those who came out were extremely cool, I really enjoyed meeting so many people, as well as seeing a bunch of familiar faces too!

hahaha what would a donation to fnk be used for?

LostBoyScout · #5 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

It's hard for Allie to remember everyone in one post. Myles wasn't there a lot, but his help and promo has been well appreciated by Allie & Megan. I don't think the hotbox comment got him any brownie points but there will be proceeds going to Fnk.ca, yes. Financials are still being worked out - gotta pay the expenses first.

All!e · #6 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

Ok Myles - I'm sorry I didn't include you into my huge list of thank you's. But I already talked to you and told you thank you for everything you did.

Yes we plan on giving some money to help run the fnk.ca site - we said we would - we are just trying to figure out everything right now. Attila, we never said all profit was going to the site - we said we would donate some money to help run the site.

As for this topic - if anyone has anything else to say in the future please pm me personally - or email me at, allie_wells@yahoo.ca Thanks.

And oh yes - Yurie [again butchering of spelling] give me an email to the address above, I have a question for you.

And thanks to EVERYONE who came out.

The gallery licence for this year cost us $120.00US

http://www.vbulletin.com/order/
The board licence for this year cost us $85.00US

The little revenue FNK makes pays our $200.00+ monthly server bills. You know how much bandwidth you kids eat up!? lol.. these yearly licences are bought by us here at FNK. (poor, poor, ce's cc)

my opinions are my own, if I had participated then we would have an issue. nowhere am I asking for money, simply inquiring.

yeah it was fun times. great music and vibes.

.... not exactly sure where the "search for drugs and booze" came into play? I can't remember the last time I saw so much in such a concentrated space.

Since we aren't real security guards, we're not legally supposed to pat people down unless they offer to be patted. So we could only really check what people would show us, or had in their bags. Next time, there will be real security people.

junglEst_gurl · #18 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

I had an awesome time :kimmie:
great first party Allie!
sorry I coudl'nt stick around to help clean up or have been of a bigger help....I was sick and pretty tired...also note to myself get more sleep & eat be4 trying to Rave..its a hard job :p

cant wait for the next party put on by Bootycrew. productions!

KenJi · #19 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

yea i had fun helping out if u call cleaning up helping. plus it can't get anymore fun than dancing with a broom and dust pan to christine and shaun-ers spinning tramnce.

i love trance in the morning, it was blissful almost

cheebus420 · #20 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

there should have been trance throughout, too much jungle/breaks.
more progressive!

Craive · #21 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

^ I think these parties are kinda about breaks/jungle/house. The trance might be a good idea though... but not too much... its hard to mix trance into jungle...
trust me - ive tried... :(

zarlon · #22 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

:)

allie, i wish i wasn't mentaly retarded at the end. or i would have helped you clean up... i swear i got brain damaged, augh

good party though. i felt like momma raver for sooo long, haha!

oh no no no, I wasn't complaining. It was a very relaxed environment. There's nothing that ads a wierd vibe to a party by introducing security guards. Not only that, they'll cost you a mint.
Raves aren't really a situation to be worrying about weapons and whatnot so it's really not neccesary.

Custard · #24 (**permalink**) Mar 30, 04

i don't think security was needed cause it was mainly a fnk rave
