[Mr Ektion]

Oh man, you guys are soo right. There're so many more that i missed out and forgot about. fuck, like any of the summerloves (i went to the bunk ubc one- i was a flyer bitch). and THE UP IN SMOKE TOUR. What a dummy i am eh? HOW could i miss that?! shoot man. just shoot.

[cinist]

[Rhianna]

None.

But there are some I wish I hadn't gone to.

[Sykonee]

Banco de Gaia's live show (at the former Palladium years ago).

And a number of Shambalas. Been meaning to go to them but never make enough of an effort it seems. Shit on my dick.

yeah you're right. now that i think about it, phantasia was definately one of a kind!

[bebu*funfun]

prob the k-os show

regarding whoever said greg c at godspeed.....you definately missed out. that was one of my happiest days ever. ive never danced so hard with jovi before, what a great night.

Funny how so many regreted not going to Phantasia. For me it was the opposite. Theme was a cool idea. Some of the theme was cool but most of the props looked like they were made by grade 1 kids. Music sucked too, main room atleast.

As for parties i regreted not going. Can't recall since most of the ones i would of regreted would of been fomr 2000. 1 i can think of is missing 12 inch tumpers @ Gimme A Break 2 @ Riverside. I miss Exert they threw dope parties along with many other companies

[jono]

RJD2 when he was here a while ago.

Shambala.

[Dr. Doom]

Smaltz, liquified

[omega_image]

hmm i usually go to everything i want to, so i havent really missed much

one i do definitely wish i would have been at is dj krush @ the commodore

what about things that i wish would come or wish i would have been alive/of age to catch?

jimmy hendrix, all the members of run dmc, the list could go on

[DJDeeb]

Carl Cox. I've been told that he has been hear before and also on the island
Man that sucks that I missed it.

Hopefully he'll come here again soon......

If your talking about Liquified done by Nice productions back in 2000 at riverside then u sure missed out. It was 1 of the sickest parties of all time.

Any oldschoolers remember the parties 5 Deadly Venoms or something along those lines? I missed out on both years and from what i heard both times they were super sick.

[jomama]

it's probably going to be simple tonight, haha

[Partizan]

I was at 5 deadly venoms. SICK party, total good times :)


oh and I wanted to add that Nice productions threw some great parties.

[thorn]

I regret nothing. It's a waste of time. If I stopped going out today, I would be completely happy with who I've seen.

yes they did along with exert, alien luv chyd and the rest of them. too bad the scene isn't as big as it was to support all these companies. ah wells better this way.

[Sniper]

I also regret missing milkshake, NRG, and lucid dreams

[EminencE]

I usually make it a duty of mine to be at shows I know I will enjoy. And thank goodness for that... or else, this list would be much longer. only these 4 come to mind...

Ninja Tune Showcase!! (I sOOOo wanted to go!@#$)
Dj Krust
DJ Suv
Arrested Development

-TiFF-

[ty:rone]

i regret not going to oakenfold.

[Niko]

I regret missing Infected Mushroom... oh, how do I...

I've been listening to their latest CD ("IM The Supervisor") for the last day or so, and it's only making me pine more.

At least they're doing a show on November 24th live on Digitally Imported. That should be nifty.

Oh, and for other shows:

-Richie Hawtin
-Squarepusher
-Lorin Bassnectar

Buddy, THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. Liquified was my first show. I know a lot of people say that your first show is always the best, and this was definately the case for me. i don't think it was because of the shock value of being at my first 'RAVE' though. Nice Amusement parties were just really well done. Hand made props, visuals & projectors, they used to even use black plastic on the walls to make the room darker! Freezies at the concession, chocolate bars, games and activities, REAL fresh fruit, and damn.

As for the days when 5dv and... absolut party... and.. LoungeX (and so on and so forth) those were the glory days. thread topics on forums were all similar and the candy & fun fur came abundantly.
