I was in miami a few years ago for new years 2000/2001 and I went to the shadow lounge on wash ave for what had to be the most enthusiastic new years I ever spent. the dj was talla 2xlc from germany & his trance, electro, progressive etc was really out of hand energetic. I went to many raves in nyc in the 90s but few of them matched the new yaers vibe at shadow lounge that night 2000/2001.
and Ive been living & partying in manhattan my entire life & been to at least a thousand parties by now if not many more but I'll tell you miami parties harder than any other city ive ever visited & that includes london, paris, rome, san fran, la, and other party capitols.
not to mention that like 2 days later I went to club space in downtown miami for danny tenaglia, 1 of the worlds greatest djs, and ive heard DT maybe 50 times in my life, including several in miami, but his set in jan 2001 at space was just off the charts, and of course he played until the late afternoon the next day !!
i can go into a hundred more amazing parties at crobar, twilo, tunnel, limelight, roxy, palladium, club usa, danceteria, but Im telling you the parties I went to in miami in 2001 may never be matched.
including winter music conference in march 2001 when the ultra fest at bayfront park had digweed, carl cox, nick warren, pvd, gatecrasher, and about 100 other djs for a totally mental rave.
i party very hard in manhattan, but i tell you those suntanned nuttys & candy ravers in miami REALLY party. I also saw great sets by derrick carter, paul oakenfold, dave ralph, tony humphries, and tenaglia's 2001 wmc set which some people call his best ever. i think january 2001 at space even topped it.
in fact im not even sure i ever recovered from the miami trips i took from 2000-2003, i wonder if that sobe revelry took a permanent toll on my psyche? its very possible.
r u going to Ultra and the Music Conference this year? you should, it's gonna be the shizzle

costume time!
Best parties I've been to:
*My Boyfriend's 21 bday party, at the Keys, one island rented, lots of candy, bunch of ravers and hippies thrown together, nothing else to say, the pics said it all
*My 20th bday party at Prive, everything was pink, VIP area closed for me and my friends, big cake shaped in a pink Converse, and I had one male stripper coming out of a bunny suit

The highlight, a Chopard watch my best friend's dad bought me as a present, which I ended up rejecting cause im good like that
*Drum & Bass events every wednesdays at my friend's house, they're the shizzle
*Wednesday nights @ The forge ( my job)... fashion shows, goodie bags, free dinner, free drinks, what else can u ask for?
*Club Space for after hours, not sleepy yet at 5am? go to Space and get all fcuked up and dance through the morning...always until 1pm

*Ultra!! that sh*t is insane, no other words to describe it, three days of madness! waa waa waaa

and last year I broke up with my boyfriend there, so that was one hell of a celebration!
*High School Senior trip to Ibiza... Fcuk prom, swimsuits, $40,000 raised to go somewhere, what else can I say? I got the best tan, and the best time ever!
