Ahh, a nice full weekend of parties. Everyone who hit History of Breaks and Dance Revolution like I did, good fun. Shame it got shut down so early, but alas, this is the way of things.

Tom: Fuckin' give'r man. It feels like I spent the entire fucking weeend with you, man.
Will & Angel: A pleasant surprise. Didnt expect to see you.
Fish: Fish's New West Crew. hahaha.
oh, and my fellow patio door guards, I cant remember names, but i'm sure we will catch up again.
SteveO - Go drunk or go home!

So as far as a make up party goes, how about us unfortunate folks who payed at the door (stupid, i know, but whatever) and thus have no ticket stub?

However, there was a set back in the whole night which led to the show being shut down. As of right now we highly do believe it was due to the fog machine which caused the fire alarm to go off. We would like to publicly apologize to all those who attended for what happened last night. It was unfortunate and it killed a party that definitely had a lot of potential in. Our next show will be announced soon within the next couple of weeks and we promise you that it will be better and even more pounding than it was at Dance Revolution. Please stay tuned for more information and updates concerning our next show.

Sincerely,
Darren Lo
Revolution Productions
See this is what I keep saying. Fog Machine = bad

Um...the reason why some of the nammers were pissed off was because a large crowd of them came in around 1 to 1:30 and they drove from vancover about an hour only to spend about 30 minutes to an hour paid 25 bux and then it got shut down...I don't know about the rest of you guys but I would be pissed off too.

^I don't recall him ever saying that they were unjustified being upset he was just stating what he saw when he got to the party.

Thanks to everyone for the help with everything! All the tips I got at the consession I put straight in the pot to give Darren some extra cash. Fuck I was beind Azim when the alarm went off and right before it did I me and him were talking about how we can't see shit and it's way to foggy. Anyhow it was a good party while it lasted!

Gia - it was awesome busting it out with you to the hard trance basslines... I loved your expressions of like "How the fuck?" and "Wholly shit!" Priceless babe.
Jimmy - was looking forward to your set man... sucks bro sucks.
Emma & Emiko - you girls were lookin nice!
Harpo and Kamal - Thanks for the ride boys and the good times at Denny's! Mu hahaha Carmen's Malibu!

Everyone else! Rave, love ya, and see ya at the next one!

P.S. - Geoff you will like the next party bro... trust me.

I think you should take them to court over the ticket you bought for an illegal event. And while you're at it mine as well see if you can get your money back for that bunk e you recently purchased (whenever you might have bought this).

But in all seriousness, if this had happened at 11pm I could see your point... however, after 4 hours have gone by I don't think the promoter has any obligation (if they even did in the first place) to give you your money back... the only thing you can really do is go to another party by these people, see if they've learned from their mistake and if they haven't then you can make up your own mind whether or not you want to support these people.

That said of course, I know Darren has learnt a valuable lesson about the overusage of fog machines and I can almost guarantee you it won't happen again. The fire alarm even went off during set up for KISS this year, also from overusage of fog... I guess people just don't realize the vapor from those things is way hotter than any ciggarette smoke (which is basically just above room tempurature by the time it hits the detector).

but to be a little more blunt and to the point: it's $15 dude, suck it up. And if you payed $25 at the door, teaches you a lesson to buy your tickets in advance.

nammers are always pissed off. you don't need to give any reasoning.
seriously, i was relying on that party to go all night cuz i had no way of getting home to surrey after work... i ended up riding the nightbus around all night and spending $25 on a cab home afterwards... but you didn't see me getting pissed off that a rave got shut down.

it's all the peroxide in their hair. sometimes they don't rinse it out and their spikey bangs poke them in their eyes and they go berzerk. it's understood.

Hey Skyle (the S is cuz you're so slick), this is completely and utterly unrelated to the event review, but I've been meaning to make a useless comment about your sig for a while now.

I don't trust man at all, but I kinda got this whole agnostic thing going - so at least with man I can sorta (and I mean sorta) see where they're coming from whereas this God character is a complete mystery to me (and will remain that way until I get deleted from existence or end up in Hell). And besides, if this God entity does indeed have some sort of "plan" then how do you know that this "plan" is a specific one... couldn't God's plan be (of course it can, this is God) to have some whacked out overlying network of rules that often don't relate to each other, but make them come very close to each other so that they seem like they could make sense but don't really (we call this "physics") just to fuck with our feeble, non-omniscient style thought process thingies ("brains... need more brains..."). Late arriving point being that even if God does make weed, who said it was made for you to smoke.

As well, if I was to take your question at face value (why we would underanalyse such a thought provoking question makes me shudder); one might throw this back at you:

"God made Hops, barley, yeast and water so Man could create a wonderful elixir. Man added 5000 more chemicals to his plants that he is forcing to grow inside with unnatural lighting and absolutely no dirt (Man plants have no need for dirt!) to give you Chronic. One of these two choices also tastes a lot better with peanuts (also made by God) than the other one... and if you said Chronic just to be a smart aleck, then next time you smoke weed I want pictures of you mowin down on the peanuts - and no liquid with water in it (due to water's "God Made" status... look for the "God Made" label on everything everywhere) is allowed to wash it down with (this basically exludes everything except for pure alcohol which you're more than welcome to use.). Gasp... which .... one... do you.... .... agh... ugh."

I'm happy now... but I've wasted a portion of your life... oh well.

And killz... due to your lack of a response, and although I could very safely assume that this is simply becauz you haven't read my mundane - yet interesting - statement yet, I would rather assume that you have read it and just can't come up with shit!! That's what you get growin up on the wrong side of the Ridge (Whonnock whut?)... i guess.

And just incase some of you have actually bothered to read everything I've written so far, why stop now? There are actually many valid/good reasons to stop, but those won't be discussed today, instead I'm very interested in knowing how something can be mundane, yet interesting all at once? Discuss.

Oh yah... um... party review... umm... the party rocked... one of the security guys was really hot... and Darren had pretty cool hair (this is coming from a punk guy so it means a lot ok)

super depressing, no?

i'd always thought the manufactures of fog machines would realize they would be used indoors and somehow fix that problem of.. setting off fire alarm systems?
