Feb. 20th Slammin, SUCKED FUCKING ASS!

[xpierence]

(Ok, I don't know if this has been posted I searched for everything I could think of to be in relation to this and nothing, if it's a repost just blend it in with the other thread please).Man, was I excited, going to basbin hooligans production, shit skynet and karl k, and chaos. Not a show to be missed, so I show up a little bit early, jungle jessi is laying down some hard ass shit, (good stuff but if you ask me way to early in the night to be droppin crowd rockers like that). Ok so it's about 10:30, I'm looking around the fuckin place and it's completly empty it seems, to me at about this time I'm looking at a way diff. crowd, that I don't think I've ever seen at nation, a crowd with the intent to just get fucked up. Everywhere I looked thats all I fucking saw, so I decided to wait it out see if some more people came out, or maybe just some people that were more fun, that could actually speak, in words, pronouncing syllables, but no this was not the case at all as the place filled up with mindless kids wandering lost in the dark, this has really upset met. After seeing something like that I don't think I will ever come to nation for a special event, unless it's friday. So to those I got to see throw down some drumnbass much respect. Happy hard core really really needs to take an amazing leap off a cliff, and head for deeper water so it is permanently drowned out, (no sorrow). So to bassbin hooligans for their line up not bad, for their out come of kids, :shady: I wont be comin back out for any of thier shows.

[Justin Time]

Agreed.

[daniella downs]

you have never seen that at nation before?

how old are you?

[xpierence]

you have never seen that at nation before?

how old are you?
No cannot say that I have, and I can't say I wan't to ever again, if I knew it was going to be like that I would've stayed at home and got trashed, fucking kids couldnt even talk sunday, :wtf:

[daniella downs]

[Justin Time]

Yea. Can you say rave is dead.

[xpierence]

[Justin Time]

Go intensive clubbing!:specialed:

[obsol33t]

[Justin Time]

You didn't miss anything.

[xpierence]

Don't worry about it you didnt miss a god damn thing, :ponder: I wonder how much money bassbin hooligans actually lost. :haha:

[Alexis]

I didn't notice people being anymore fucked up than usual.

but then again, I left after an hour.
I cannot believe I wasted $25

[ms boombatti]

nice orange text, dipshit.

[Justin Time]

No problem, though you did jump the gun considering that wasn't directed towards you.

[xpierence]

look at your avatar, asshat.
Yeah It's because its funny bitch, not because I get fucked up never said I didnt, I just hate it when shows seem strictly based on nothing but people wanting or getting fucked up, where their so fucked up you walk up and say hi, im so and so nice to meet you, and you get in response, blahughbalhg I cant talk cuz Im to fucked up. Thats what I was saying shit bucket.

[Alexis]

I didn't go out Friday because I wanted to save my $20 for this....

Sunday came and I was quite comfy on my couch watching cheesy horror movies I had bought from Wal-Mart for $5...but I HAD to go out, because I hadn't been out in a while.

lame.

[Justin Time]

Shit bucket? Now that something you don't hear every morning!

[ms boombatti]

sorry to hear the party was not to your liking.


dnb lineup seemed solid.

[Justin Time]

Man, the DnB line Up was solid! But it's hard to enjoy a party with a eFFed up vibe.

:woot: to friday night! Mardi Gras was awesome, to bad about mickey but feelgood, I think definatly compensated for a lot. He had the whole main room jumping for a while! All I did was dance, and I definatly don't think I wouldve had as good of a time anywhere else

[i licked JOEYd]

I was telling people before this party started that it wouldn't get more than 300 people. And Nation with 300 people looks like there are 20 people in the club.

And when you feel completely alone in a club like that, you're obviously going to not have that great of a time.

They had many many many things working against them. First, they are a new crew in this area. Second, their music is not the most commercial or with the biggest draw. Third, they chose a Sunday for their event even tho some people had off Monday it's still not thought of as a clubbing night. And Lastly, The promotion was lacking imo. I only heard about the event because I know people into HHC. Sounds like the numbers just didn't add up. I just hope they got a big time discount on talent since it was a Sunday. I'd really like to see this crew throw more events, just not at Nation, and just not on a Sunday.

Thank you, for your well thought out comment and/or opinion, I'm not being sarcastic it seems like everyone else wants to start a fight, instead of just leaving an honest opinion, thanks.

Actually, I think their promotion was okay. They had flyers for many weeks and were giving them out both at ALIAS and after Cubik. Plus, this has been on the board for a while. Though maybe that would work to their detriment to flyer at Nation. There might've been one or two other places where they flyered, but I cannot remember.

The Castaway party thrown a couple weeks ago had 1 day of flyering and one week of promotion on the buzzboard. They had way more people than this Sunday past. And the Castaway party didnt have Anabolic Frolic. They just had locals.

But as we said, I think this Sunday had other things against them.

yeah I know the promotion wasnt bad I got all kinds of flyers for it on friday and since I already knew about it I kinda just handed my slamming flyers out to people, but like you said, there were def, other factors against that night.

[beth]

Yes Rave Momma.

hah he called you rave momma!


through the raaaaain.. there's a funshiiiineee..

Yes, cause Lauren is my rave momma!:funshine:

Castaway was FREE as opposed to $25, it was a Saturday night as opposed to Sunday, and it was not in a club and had little if any security. Plus, with the all locals lineup the local DJs bring their 20+ friends and fans each which add up quick. That had all the makings of a great party reguardless of promotion. And I got the online flyer for that party...

Yes, but I was commenting on your comment about the promotion. I totally agree with all of that what you just said.

Slammin had more time for promotion and certainly made use of that time.

Makes someone wonder if flyering and other promotional material really helps a party...

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

An excellent question. I'm kinda of the opinion that most of the traditional hand-to-hand promotion really doesn't help much anymore. Most people get their info from the internet, messageboard, emails, etc... But I guess the car-flyering and stuffs really help balance things out for those less computer-literate folk.......


:shrug:

Ive heard that 1% of flyering actually helps bring people to a party. Looks like that's about right for this Sunday past...

dammit, flyering used to be cool.

it used to be a mob scene leaving buzz on a friday night.

there was always so many f*ckers lined up outside, yelling about why thier party was better then the one being thrown by the guy standing next to them.

i used to threaten people with paper-cuts when i was a measly flyer girl.

that shit was fun though.....i remember once i didn't have my ID, and couldn't get in, but i just ended up hanging out with all the flyer kids all night, and probobly had more fun then i would of if i had gotten in.

these days, flyering is ineffective, cause these so little of it being done.

people just disregard 'em when they get 'em. :puppydog:

i wish that wasnt the case because i know those who make the flyers put their hearts into their art. if id have thought about it, i would have kept all the flyers and put them on my wall.

i think lauren is right. most of the effective promoting is on the 'net or by other means.

I used to love to hand out flyers, it was always a good time. You stand outside BSing with the other promoters, then go into mass hysteria as the people start leaving and yell whatever comes to mind that might get their attention, ah so much fun and met some really cool people.

Now it definitely doesn't seem that important. I used to collect the flyers, but not so much anymore. And too bad that they couldn't draw many people on Sunday. I was gonna go, but I've been watching the finances and couldn't make it out.

yeah, we really used to yell some dumb-ass shit to get people to take our flyers.

lol. good times.

and it really is a shame that there wasn't a good turn-out on sunday.

honestly i thought the event was put together extremely well, and that it's only major fall-back was that it didn't end up packing the venue.

i for one, had a blast, and am sorry to hear that not everyone else did.

but whatever.

it's hard to please the masses these days.

[Justin Time]

Hey well, at least the DnB was good.

[The Jezereck]

their flyering was pretty ample i thought, it seemed no matter where i went as soon as i got to my car, yep there it was another green flyer proclaiming this party. Me personally I think flyering has been replaced by the internet, between the buzzboard, dc raves and a countless other multitudes of sites, if you dont know whats goin on, one of your friends does!

[Justin Time]

Perfectly said Jeremy.

[Synz]

okay, my review.

the promotion for this party was pretty ample imo because I had friends hear about this party from nyc and philly. even had some come down from philly just for this party. and the vibe I got from the buzzboard thread was pretty popular, even tho i never went in it. this party was just plain weird. that is the best word to describe this party -- WEIRD.

first, the front room. jessi was probably the best dnb dj there and I heard slant and skynet before dipping. slant was playing really noisy dnb that sometimes sounded a little muffed and discordant, but he did do a nice job mixing and scratching. skynet rocked the first couple records with his own brand of uk jungle and then went south into 'tenebrous' (:wink:) land.

the main room. t-1000 did a great job with his set, was pretty impressed with his track selection, but very disappointed with his mixing. the best mix I heard from him all night was the very last one before he came off. as for nigel richards... well this was the man I went to see. and damn was I so NOT impressed. his mixing was wayyy off... of course he has a great track selection, but it had no flow whatsoever. then frolic came on... i tried... I REALLY TRIED to get down, but im sorry, hhc jus isn't my thing and actually if it wasnt so damned tranced out, i mightve been able to handle it longer.

honestly, i didn't see too many fucked up kids, jus a lot of ppl I've never seen before, at nation, alias, or anywhere out. i was thinking, where the fuck do you come from?? the vibe wasn't horrible imo, but maybe thats cause I tried my damndest to have a good time, so it wouldnt have been a complete $25 waste... but i would totally like my 25 back.

k, i done.

[Jungle Jessi]

jessi was probably the best dnb dj there.

awww. thanx jeremy!!! :smooch:

honestly, i didn't see too many fucked up kids, jus a lot of ppl I've never seen before, at nation, alias, or anywhere out. i was thinking, where the fuck do you come from??

you know i did see that one kid who was talking to himself all night at ALIAS last thursday, and whatever it was that had him goin off on thurday was still kickin his ass on sunday, 'cause he was acting EXACTLY the same.

you gotta wonder how people like that live to see 25.

[Justin Time]

I think I know who you are talking about.

[ramz]

3 times fast, and it makes me warm inside to know that shit like that is dead! :woot:okay, so seriously... not to hate or anything, but how could you look at the lineup and NOT know what you were in for? I was ALL about making it out to this, but, sadly, I couldn't drag my old ass out for the third night in a row to party hard... I got spent on Feelgood, spinning at Phoenix, and Sasha, so I simply couldn't make myself go... I think most of the problem was the turnout, from what I'm hearing. But it boggles the mind that you would bitch about the music when you see Anabolic Frolic, T-1000, Nigel Richards (playing a 100% acid set), etc. billed... Reading is essential...

Not bitching about the music, I agree with a lot of what you said, but I was in the front room, meaning (fuck anobolic frolic he blows dogs for quarters) I expected to see a whole bunch of fucked up kids, but I also expected to see a good amount of normal music loving people too, granted I go for the music, and am not there specifically to meet people, but It's always nice when there are people around that can put words together to make a fucking sentence for gods sake. You would definatly have a little bit different of a perspective if you had shown, but like ya said it's hard to party 3 nights in a row. Any vibe I had was completly destroyed once I stepped foot inside, honestly a waste of 40 dollars, 25 to get in, 10 to park, and 5 for gas. I'll never come out for a night like that again, I was just hoping to go, jam to some hostile drumnbass and have a good night, like I said complete waste of my fucking time!!

Because our shit got broken into last time we parked in the street, fuck that, to much shit got stolen, I learned my lesson the first time.

[mouse]

Ive been going to Cubik and other events for a looong time and Ive never had an issue.

[ramz]

someone actually was talking to me about some kid they saw on friday night that spent like half an hour talking to someoen that wasnt there or somethign along those lines..I saw that dude at the bistro the other night wearing an Independent hoodie, IIRC... wow, he's just entertaining as fawk... ;)

[beth]

my car has gotten broken into when i was at alchemy one night (this is before ALIAS moved to nation), but i was parked farther away from teh club than i wouldve liked.

i usually come early, so parking right outside is not a prob. otherwise, i have my secret spots. havent had a problem since. :kapluto:

[Justin Time]

You paid 10 for parking? It sounds like it wasnt that busy so why didnt you park on the street?

I don;t park on the street. Thats why. I've had to many friend get their car broken into on the streets out there. Even the street between The edge and Nation. I remember one night almost every car on that street was broken into and my friend Rachel lost alot of her stuff. I've had my car broken into once. I'll never park on the street again.

[PotBelly]

I saw that dude at the bistro the other night wearing an Independent hoodie, IIRC... wow, he's just entertaining as fawk... ;)

I know who he is. I'll try to make it out to one of the parties he's at so I can ask him to introduce me to his new "friend".

[Agent Sunshine]

I wanted to come out for this, T-1000 and Adam X are lovely, but I had school monday (evidently someone forgot to mention the holiday). As was mentioned before, this party had a lot working against it. Fools need to find some new venues, people don't usually want to go to the same place for a party multiple nights in one weekend, and you're obviously going to need at least a few Buzz kids there to draw a real crowd. This should have been held somewhere at most half the size, really.

[DeAtHmOnGeR bEaR]

I agree - it should have been a different venue - perhaps the 930 club? But then there would have only been one room for all the music.... HRMMM...

[Pseudo Society]

I expected a wide variety of people in the crowd and that is what I got. I came to see T-1000 primarily and I got to see him. Alan was the shit in the early 90's on the radio as I was growing up and he was the shit on Sunday. I'm not into that Anabolic shit...but yeah he had the kids jumping. Nigel actually played a decent set... I was surprised. There was some high quality 303 quirking shit in there.

I think it was a good party, but definitely needed a smaller venue. It would have forced more social interaction amongst partygoers. Mucho props. Thanks for bringing Alan...fuck it was like having a beer after being a POW for 8 months. Such a relief to hear techno in DC.

[GiveMeFunkyBeats]

well, yeah i noticed the stupid retarded children crowd was at a high level sunday night...but i was there thoroughly enjoying the dnb in the front room...all on point, loved it, danced, enjoyed the floor space...but yeah shitty crowd, great music in the front room...and thats about it...

[Tha Dj Glyphix]

I was wondering when Nation will start there new dress code, so I can make sure I'm never at another fucking party there again. Ok that was enough said!!!

[Synz]

CRAZZZY PHIL! a friend whom i forget exactly which one it was apparently knows him because he used to date their ex roomie.

[E:go]

So it strikes me that all the angry dnb kids are angry because they couldn't appreciate having some space to actually dance for a change.

I know that all of my friends had a really good time at this thing, and the majority of them weren't fucked up on anything. I, for one, had a great time 100% sober. There was a nice core group of my friends there and I had a great time wandering around and dancing with them all night, meeting some of their friends, and just talking. If you couldn't find someone intelligent to talk to then you really must not have been looking too hard. Being into the HHC thing I absolutely loved Frolic's set, and I thought he was really cool afterwards when he came out of the booth to talk to people, sign autographs, and just chill with everyone. I haven't really seen too many big name dj's do that before, although I know they're out there.

Yes, it would've been cool if there were more people there to enjoy the thing, but it was definitely a weird night, and probably not the best place. Still, the party is going to be whatever you make of it, no matter who's spinning, what the venue, and who's there. I'm glad that I was able to make it a pretty damn good time.

[IcePrincess2250]

i got my dance on, which was fun.


<--- had fun with all the ghey anabolic frolic raver and is damn proud of it

[rocketgirl]

i thought everything with the production was great as far as the laser and the bounce mirrors in the main room. It was also cool how they set up some moving lights around the DJ booth instead of all on the ceiling - reminds me of how they used to set up the lights in Pittsburgh when I lived there.

All in all, the music was ACE. Everyone on the flyer showed up, and played pretty sick sets. J Smooth & Adam X are some of my favorites. Yeah, $25 was kind of a lot, but it was a lot more headliners than we're used to seeing in one night. It would have been a super sick party if more DC heads showed up. The parking lot had a lot of out-of-state plates.

I also thought it was cool when Anabolic Frolic came into the crowd to meet fans and sign autographs as well. He signed someone's care bear! The last time I think a deejay wandered into the crowd was back when we sold cd's in the front and BBB went AWOL after spinning in the back. Steve Smooth and security were even asking me as a photographer hanging out in the VIP if I saw him (I hadn't and was actually waiting for him myself.) Found out later he'd walked, unescorted, to the front room to sign some of his cd's for fans who bought them because apparently he'd promised to do that for them and sing other stuff or something along those lines--very cool! :onethumb:

[IcePrincess2250]

kathy!!! *whines* i didnt see you there

[kathy v]

kathy!!! *whines* i didnt see you there

Yep I was there, and I took off work Monday too otherwise I'd be getting home from the party, changing from my UFO's to a skirt and heading straight out to work

:hypnotized: :yawn: :zzz: :coffee:

(Wow, you can truly tell a whole story with smilies alone, and when did we get this one?!:
:fuckoff: )

[xpierence]

3 times fast, and it makes me warm inside to know that shit like that is dead! :woot:
Yay I got negative rep for this exact post presented above, die you fucking ass packing kandi kid fuck tards, die with your rave scene!!!

[Justin Time]

Yea. Can you say rave is dead.

I got neg. for this too. When will these dellusional kids realize that rave is dead. Seriously, it's hanging on by a thread. Clubbin is where it's at.

BTW- your a bitch for not leaving a name.:thumbsdown:

[ramz]

uh, yeah... we can close this thread...

[Justin Time]

Uh, yeah, did you get that memo.

[E:go]

You know, I got some negative rep the other day for commenting that Buzz is a more enjoyable time than Glow, basically because of the annoying dress code and whatnot. Someone said I should change my name to E:nvey, which almost would've been cute except that "envy" doesn't have a second "e" in it. Dumb people make me feel sorry for them, especially when they don't take credit for their stupidity. Just thought I'd share since this thread has taken a turn from the original points.

[ManofWar]

i'm even more tired of people saying that "rave is dead" or get into arguments over "the scene."

who cares.

[Terry85]

yeah, slammin sucked- i had my hopes all high that anabolic frolic wouldn't SUCK but the only thing I halfway enjoyed was junglejessi and T-1000 which like you said were played way early in the night and there were only like 5 people there(compared to the 10 who were there later..and then left after anabolic)...my question is why the fuck would you have that event on a sunday night when you KNOW only like 4 people in the entire country actually celebrate president's day so everyone had school/work the next day. i knew it was going to be a disaster when i got there and the parking lot was empty and the upstairs was blocked off. not to mention that they tried to contrast anabolic frolic with adam fucking x back to back...HAPPY HARDCORE to dark emo slit your wrist techno....fucking brilliant.....what a waste of money

Well it sounds like you knew what you were getting yourself into before you even entered the venue. Someone must have pulled your collar and made you enter, huh? I knew once Nigel was done I wasn't going to be interested in the rest.

There is a little thing called operational risk management. You weigh out the options you see. Does the risk of said party "sucking" override the payoff you expect in the end. I knew it was going to suck for me once Anabolic came on. Was that enough risk to hinder the performances of Alan and Nigel? No. Was the EXPECTED low turnout enough added risk for me to go? No. Obviously you didn't think about these things before you pulled out your wallet.

Unless you are clueless about EDM and just happened to be passing by and felt like dropping $25, I have no sympathy for you. Haze yourself, immediately.

[FlamingSack]

whiney fucks. If its all so bad. stop going.. go lay down somewhere and cry.. go murder a kandi kid and get thrown in jail so you might feel like you did something worthwhile.. but maybe everything sucks so much because everybodys so fucking irritable? I wish I could put you evil bastards in a cage out here and make you listen to a scratched and skipping speedcore record while i hosed you down with a bunch of boiling hot pink glitter. Or I can just stop looking at this messageboard like I have been so I don't see how annoying people can be and realize they they all get a hardon from fighting about the weirdest damn shit in the universe? Either way.. I was sober as hell at that party (as always) and aside from Adam X.. I thought it was fine.. met alot of really nice kids- so what if they were fucked up? Is that really any different than any single Friday night or are people just soo caught up in stylin and profilin' that they don't notice the hoards of the undead retards?
BAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

boiling hot pink glitter...EEK!

Hmmmm....

Your torture tactic seems incredibly bad. Pink glitter... boiling hot? Watch the pee pee please :chilly:

they took it back to the old skool. lol

rave is not dead. it was never alive in the first place.

Hmm...

Point and click DJing is creative and very unique, it's about as "alive" as your thought process.

[Bioteknik]

You paid 10 for parking? It sounds like it wasnt that busy so why didnt you park on the street?

sounds like one of those people scared to park on the street when there is ample parking.

Of the people that were there I'd say something like 10% were of drinking age or were actually drinking.

[Bioteknik]

Because our shit got broken into last time we parked in the street, fuck that, to much shit got stolen, I learned my lesson the first time.

actually that lesson is :Don't bring valuable shit with you in your car. they don't just break in to any random car hoping there's something worth stealing in there.

[E:go]

Yeah, all the shit in my car when I go into DC is worth maybe 20 bucks total. The only time anyone ever messed with my car was to unlock the door, put something in the back seat, then relock the door again. Wasn't I surprised when I came back to my car to find all this shit left in the back? Of course, the weird the about all that was that there was no ID, so the cops just told me to do what I wanted with it. Yay for free shit. *shrug*

I had a lot of fun when I was spinning a couple weeks ago (and basically having no idea what I was doing since I had never touched decks before in that capacity). I finished up my "set" (ok, so I was told to get off the decks so someone could get on their who knew what they were doing) by playing the Mighty Dub Kats "Magic Carpet Ride." It was the best mix that I had the entire time...the only problem was that I had it going 33 rpm instead of 45...oops!

Asshole!

[massder]

Why on earth would you go to that show if you didnt like HHC? Anabolic Frolic, etc. were not small unknowns. I might not be HHC candy kid, but there is something to be said for learning to objectively listen to music different than what you are used and assess the good and bad of what it is, for what it is. Otherwise, stay at home and listen to the CDs you already own.
