well...all in all i'll say that i thoroughly enjoyed the WMC...starting
the thursday before last i consecutively stayed up till 5 am until the
next tuesday night....so 6 nights of shows and what not.....needless to
say by wednesday i was quite deaf and my ears didnt stop ringing until
the next day...my room was just a total mess because i really didnt do
much but go to shows and come home and sleep.....all my clothes smell
like cigarettes because thats the preferred drug at clubs down
here(besides extasy and alcohol).
ummm well lemme make a list of people i saw, saw\heard perform, or
saw/heard perform live.
starting with last the thursday before hand

well as Schematics official DJ)

dj ltj bukem

tainted by them)

LIVE FUNKSTORUNG (nicest fucking guys...best fucking music..what else
can i say)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ either this or jake mandell was the best music i heard
in all of WMC
dj craze ( our hometown boy craze has decided to take up jungle...sounds
like it will be a joke right?? well think again...this was "awesome"
combine great junle mixing with turntablism...
all i can say is it was spectacular....fucked my ears up for 2
days...well it was great until tc islam decided he needed to "represent"
then the pain began)
dj tech itch
dj decoder
dj machete
dj dieselboy
*****the one person i missed out on was ED RUSH, he made a surprise
apearance at a show i thought was gonna be wack.....still slapping
myself over that one
###anyway...probably forgot a few in there....any questions at all about
anythign just ask....i'm not gonna flood the list with reviews of each
one so feel free to enquire privately..
deffinitely try and come down next year if you can...something not to
miss....especially if your a jungle/d&b fan as well.
