Wow...what a letdown. I think I have just re-resolved to avoid Raverside like the plague. Why? The Gestapo-like atmosphere of the event. Yes, I realize drugs are illegal, and yes, I expect to be searched as I enter, and yes, I understand that if drugs are nonetheless smuggled in to use the uptmost discretion in their handling. Nonetheless, the security was far too aggressive, demanding to search people at random and, in at least one instance, telling people caught with goods that they better not take anything 'cuz they'd be tested later. It was worse than customs and made me feel like I was in prison, being watched like a hawk lest I pull a shank on someone while sitting in the yard. Hence my pet name for this party...Jailhouse Rock.
A secondary reason was the sardine-like feel of the venue, which made getting to and fro at times worse than navigating from one end of a bus to another during rush hour. Is someone seriously suggesting that the venue was within their legal capacity, after factoring in all the closed off areas?
On the plus side, the music was generally good and I likley would have enjoyed it even more without the Big Brother and uber-crowded atmosohere. Other plus was the many kewl peeps I met...I honestly only remember one or two names and don't wan't to single anyone out and make someone else feel forgotten, but whoever among you are on F&K feel free to message.
Bottom line, this had potential, just needed some friendlier security and either fewer people or a bigger venue.

Insomnia!

A huge thanks to Stan, the crew @ Uh-Oh and the Shy Brothers for putting on this show! Also, thanks again for giving Adam and I an awesome timeslot @ 11:45PM! -- I hope that we put on the show that people were looking to hear!

Those that heard it, what did you think of the set? Adam and I dropped a mix of new stuff, old UK funk and even an old school Michael Jackson House track! Feedback people!!!

My opinion, and I am judging from everyone going off in the packed room, screaming, etc... we blew the roof off that place! -- In fact, starting with Adam and I, then Precise and then Marty McFly --- that was 4+ hours of some of the best Breaks that room has seen in a long time!

I can't wait to read the replies and see the pics people were taking.

I thought the party was pretty good. Music upstairs was dope all night. Kraig, Adam and Ryan ripped shit up, thanx guys. Good vibe all around, security was a little harsh but what can ya do. Met some pretty cool people, saw lots of familiar faces. Overall i'd say it was a pretty good party......................i mean hey, at least it didn't smell like shit

pretty good party besides it was so fucking hot in the second room, pretty good music. we left after marty mcfly left so basically it was an all breaks party which was fun. they could of used some visuals in the second room however. kraig like stepped on a wire and cut all the power off or something i had a good laugh at that. and those girls in like bathing suits and booty shorts were nice too.

I HAD AN AWESOMEEE TIME LAST NIGHT. i haven't flailed that much in a while and it felt soooo good. after a long night of working and listening to a broken hearted friend talk, i dropped by riverside around 12...and i was blownnnnn away! kraig and adam just gets better and better with the track selections! personally best set of the night....so impressed and so proud of them. (the last night billie jean mix....YUM! they play the original "last night" at my work and ill never get sick of it! so much fun) and the BIRTHDAY BOYYYYS both played really well..it was a treat! even the dude that played after marty mcfly..started off real slow with 2 step stuff then picked it up and was playing really good breaks with tons of bassline. AWESOME. oh man i was there for a long while, but i had a blast....no clue where all that energy came from. and yea chichi for blowing out the speaker. "but i want to be loud" lol. hmmm who else...de-ken... what can i say he has the dj presense DOWN..i dont care what he spins, but just the way he stands there he's fawking hot. :hehe: (woops)

uhoh prod and shy brothers.... good job! i had a blast and you guys made it all possible! and yes stan..you ARE amazing. :hehe:

I didn't cut the power!!! -- That was Adam... he shut the power bar off. It was kinda of silly that all the power for the decks/speakers, etc. were plugged into one fricken power bar!
