It still hasn't set in yet.. but I feel like its finally time I write my review before they close the WMC subforum..
Wed: Arrived in Miami and got checked into the hotel.. Made it down to Shelbourne for DJ Mag Party at about 5pm, which they were "at capacity " even though I had already bought my tickets.. After waiting over an hour we finally landed our way in even tho no one had checked for passes.. Steve Lawler started the party good but the crowd wasn't feeling Dubfire's set.. Overall way to crowded for anyone to enjoy.. Left during Wink's set to get ready for the night..
Wed Night: Landed at BED at around midnight.. Danny was already rocking the place and we had hooked up with my friend who had a table.. VIP area was chill but overall the venue left something to be desired.. Sound could have been much louder.. Definitely not what I would have thought, there wasn't even more then like 5 Beds in the place.. Danny created madness for 5 hours straight as only he knows how.. What a killer way to start conference..
Thursday: Got some rest and caught up with JLove, Brian Scott, Ammora, and a few others for preparty for the Lee boat.. Tikki Boat was one of the best experiences ive ever had.. What a crazy time being on the boat with the man Lee Burridge.. He kept the place rocking all day with an awesome opening set by Mike Khoury.. The Tikki Boat had a killer unique charm with sand and trees to enjoy.. Everyone on the boat was there for a killer time and danced the day away.. Free Beer made this a party not to Forget..
Thurs Night: Passed out after the boat for a while and woke up at 11:30 for Space.. In a mad dash to make it by midnight before our Tix expired, we landed ourselves in Space for another exciting night.. The Terrace is the place to be no matter whether its at WMC or not.. Love the atmosphere and Lawler, Luciano and crew absolutely fking destroyed the place.. I can't wait to see Luciano again in Detroit for more chaos..
Friday Day: After getting some sleep.. I headed down to Lincoln for the Hallucination Rooftop party.. which despite being delayed because of red tape turned out to be a great party.. Droog opened with a great funky set followed by the man Lee Burridge rocking the place for almost 3 hours.. Toward the end of the set Three and Lee tagged for some extra chaos.. even Reverse Commuter suprised me with a much improved set from last year..
Friday Night: After stumbling out of the Hallucination Party, I headed over to Shine for some Hope action.. Again Shelbourne having issues with being "at capacity " and only letting in guests of the hotel.. I finally made my way in where Seaman and Warren kept the place bouncing for almost 7 hours.. Seaman bringing the tech nasty while Warren brought the melodic prog created a contrasting but creative show...
Sat AM: After leaving Shine at about 6 or so.. we chilled for a while to get my mind straight for the madness of Get Lost.. after making our way down to midtown at about 8am.. We landed at the hole in the wall known as Electric Pickle, what a perfect place for the evil of Crosstown Rebels.. Damian Laz was ripping the room apart with some deep.funk.tech house until Jamie Jones came on to blow the roof off.. Butane, Seth Troxler, and Clive Henry all were spectacular acts and it really showed me where the future of electronica is..
Sat/Sunday School: After getting burned on the beach and some much needed sleep.. I awoke to what would be my last party of WMC.. Sunday School is the party to be at hands down.. Made takes the extra effort to make things happen the way they should.. Ice Palace studios was a beautiful place to end WMC.. Onur Ozer, Martin Landsky, Matt Dear, Guy Gerber, Marco Carola, Adultnapper and Joris Voorn all were icing on the cake (or ice cream.. if you were lucky )... It was a great last day in Miami to spend with friends and reflect on the week..
All in all best WMC yet.. Every party brought a unique and fun atmosphere which reflected on the best parts of which Miami has to offer.. Met lots of awesome people and TA's which I hope to catch up again with in the future.. Even though its only one week a year, WMC is worth every minute while your there..

I'll prob go for Day 2 (Saturday) I have a 1 massive a year rule...and I haven't been to one in 2009! =)

i'm from el paso, texas. i've made the trip out to LA for EDC the last three years with buddies... its a 12 hour drive just to get down there, but its been worth it everytime!!! i also usually go to nocturnal in september and either giant maximus or together as one for new years eve. although this time i'm strongly considering just flying out for EDC since it's two days. i can't take friday off from work (since i just took a week for WMC!) and if we drove we'd miss friday night. so if i make it, it'll probably be flying! road trips are fun, but damn, sometimes you wanna just get there and back quick!
Southwest.com must have a cheap flight to either LAX or look into Burbank or Long Beach with other low cost airlines (they aren't too far)

hahah i have a love/hate relationship with massives... love the madness and energy, but hate the usually 1hr time slots :/
i flew southwest to miami this year and got a really good price, but that was flying out on tuesday and returning on tuesday. if i fly to cali it will be for the weekend and prices are always higher... but i'll definately look into flying into a smaller airport than LAX! that sounds like the way to go!
