Lingerieve 2 went off super amazing!!! The pictures are posted here!  There’s also a few animated gifs including the one of Luscious shaking her amazing booty.  There was something bordering on a kabillion people there.  The music was bangin ALL NIGHT.  Widget Phreak played his gameboy remix of Ass & Titties by DJ Assault and the gameboy remix of Come Running and Elysium.  When the kids heard the opening notes, they charged the stage the same way they always do when come running is normally played… but nobody expected what was dropped on em!  My dad’s set was super amazing and the dancefloor stayed packed the whole time.

The crowd was super huge and some people even said it was overwhelming, but really… isn’t that what makes an awesome rave?  I remember raving back in the late 90s and if you werent packed into a warehouse like a can of sardines it wasnt a great party.  We actually had to open a couple of the theater auditoriums to accomodate overflow as chill rooms.  The fire department and police departments showed up to make sure everything was going smoothly and sure enough they were.  The whole event went without a hitch.

Over the past few weeks I’ve been taking photos at parties and uploading them to the rave photo gallery but I havent been keeping up on the reviews etc.  So here I’ll do a quick synopsis of a few parties.  Click the name of the party for the photos.

 Grumpy Bear’s Intervention  - This was Grace’s first party an fell the night after Jason’s Other House.  There was another party on the same night which led to a fairly low turnout.  The music could have been better organized as far as genre and progression through the night.  There also could have been a little more work done with theming.  There was nothing about the night aside from the line of carebears in front of the main stage that really spoke to the name of the party.

These are the Raves of our Lives -Big Mike threw this party a week after Jason’s Other House.  The party had a few fun competitions and while not heavily themed, had good organization and  a strong vibe.

America’s Next Top Raver -  Much like in office space, I found myself saying “I’m not even supposed to be here today!!!”  My presence at this party was due to an aborted trip to vegas at the fault of a bad motorcycle battery.  Oh well, next time around.  The energy for the night felt off somehow, but Im not sure exactly what it was.  Mike Saga tore the roof off with his drum and bass set and all the kids were diggin it.  There was some fairly poor mixing I recall during some of the night, but I can’t place exactly where it was coming from as it was a few weeks ago.

HTID in the sun REWIND - Rize and company did a marvelous job with this party.  The talent to dollar ratio on this party couldnt have done better. $10 for international headliners and a hell of a show.  The event pulled over 1000 of Phoenix’s ravers.  The music was amazing, the promotion top notch, and pretty much everything else rocked too… with the exception of the number of fights that broke out.  Seriously until the past couple of years, I’d NEVER seen a fight at a rave.  That crap was for the drunkards at the clubs who didnt belong to a community the way we do.  I started seeing most of it when the sceneXcore kids infiltrated the rave community and brought with them their anger and attitudes.  I’m not normally one to pick on subcultures, but seriously guys… take your eye-covering bangs, loads of eyeliner, emo attitudes, and physically agressive natures, and get the heck out of our community. Please and Thankyou.

So that about pulls it all together for the past few weeks.  Lingerieve 2 is coming up soon, and its page will be up shortly.  I’ll work on being more on the ball about keeping updated.  Oh just one other thing.  Google LOVES me apparently.  If you go to google and type in battery operated tampon and hit I’m feeling lucky, it brings you right here.  How awesome is that?
