Unite Festival/Seattle Trip
Instead of attending Summerlove, MC Hammered, Snyx, Haydn and I decided to go to the Unite Festival in Seattle. All of us have come to the agreement that it was one of, if not THE weirdest weekend we have ever had.
Winston picked the three of us up from the skytrain station, after burning his hand with a glue gun. We threw our bags in the back, jumped in the car, and ventured off to Seattle. I fell asleep in the backseat, even though the music was TOTALLY pounding. When we reached the border, we had no problems with the customs officer. It amazes me that he didn't have any sense to check our car, even though we told him straight out that the purpose of our trip was to attend a party. Anyways, we stopped at Subway/Taco Bell to grab a bite to eat. This is where Myles discovered his new found love--REDBULL. I swear, that boy was wired on that stuff the entire trip. :003: So, we get to the party and the place is EMPTY! The venue is HUGE and we were expecting some sort of a crowd. I'd say there was only about a quarter of the amount of people at USC 5, if even. There was a really tripped out 3D maze...you put on 3D glasses and as you're walking through, all these dots and scribbly things fly out at you. Then you walk through the "black hole" (like the one at USC 5, where you're walking on a flat platform, but your body falls from one side to another), and finally, there's a pitch black area with a strobe light where you totally can't see where you're walking. I walked through this when I was SOBER and I could barely handle it. I didn't even bother trying while I was high, cause I'd prolly end up lost in some corner and breaking down in tears. The music was pretty phat. We caught the last 10 minutes of Craze, who was totally insane. He opened for this party cause he had to make it up for his set at Summerlove later on in the night. All the stages were somewhat empty except for the trance stage, so that's basically where we stayed. I was chilling with Winston and we popped...within his NEW record time, he was GONE. haha...when I say gone, I mean G-O-N-E. I ended up taking care of him for most of the night. When his high was over, he decided to pop a CK, but the security guards saw him when he was taking out his E. I think things went downhill from there. They asked us a bunch of questions, told us that they could have thrown us out of the party, blah blah, searched me (and didn't find my tab which was sitting right in my pocket!!), and finally left us alone. Oh yeah, Myles was pretty gone too, staring off into outer space. Armand Van Helden rocked it, as well as Dig Dug and a few others. Winston and I were kinda bummed out and tired, so we left the party early and slept in the car...Winston couldn't fall asleep cause there was a really loud car alarm that was going off the entire time we were there, but of course I totally zonked out and slept through it. When Haydn and Myles came to the car at the end of the party, we drove to the hotel, found a room, ate breakfast and crashed. After, we went shopping at Old Navy, and then to Tony Romas to eat. I think this was punishment for Winston and Myles, as they had an extremely tough time trying to chew their steak with their sore jaws. After, we went to this arcade, played some games, and proceeded to play 35 holes of miniature golf. (not 36 cause we skipped the 18th hole of the first course so it would not eat up our golf balls) I really don't think there's anything better than mini golf on a Sketchy Sunday now. After, we went to Denny's for some ice cream. I brought down 2 tabs for Unite but I only popped one at the party...so...I was bored...and decided to pop the 2nd one. hehe...we went to the corner store next door and bought a bunch of alchy and brought it back to the hotel room. The hotel room...haha...I have to THANK Winston, Myles and Haydn for not butchering me. I was ripped and drunk and started to act like a 5 year old. Literally. I was jumping from one bed to the other, throwing things at the walls, slapping everyone's asses, making monkey faces, took the radio alarm clock dials and pretended to be a DJ scratching, and kept on saying "I am one, funky, fresh DJ" NON-STOP. I almost drove Myles to the point of insanity with that. I'm sure everyone was quite content when I finally passed out. Haydn and Myles went to buy smokes and had an interesting encounter with a crack whore, but I'll let them tell that story. I almost drove Myles to the point of insanity with that. I'm sure everyone was quite content when I finally passed out. In the morning, we checked out and went to REI, this huge mega mountain co-op type place. We ate some wraps, watched Winston ATTEMPT to skateboard on this tripped out board, and tried to hack their computer. After all that, we jumped in the car and finally headed back to Vancouver...we made a stop at duty-free to buy some super slim smokes and alchy. They had cartons of smokes for $1, but I decided to buy the regular priced ones, cause those ones were prolly extremely stale. Aite, this post is SO fucking long and I'm sick of typing. If I left anything out, add it in yo. Erica :AZN: |
