my review
I'm finally up and functioning again, so i guess it's review time, eh?
wow.
1) What a
fine night of music here in the 'ville.
Our hometown heros blew the place apart and confirmed what many of us already knew... that they fucking rock!
Foursquare- holy mother of gawd. chicago watch out!
Booth- holy shit... i haven't seen you play like that in years...welcome back.
Foursqare and Booth- you are the anchors of our current house scene in Louisville and I can't begin to tell you both how proud i am of you and how honored i am to call you friends. you amaze me.
Brian Neckel- wow. i totally understand now why you've been so excited. your set was well worth the wait and makes me impatient to wait to hear you again. PUT IT ON A CD. i want it. seriously... ask toni- it was 3:30 in the morning, i was totally exhausted and still hollered 'till my voice cracked-then kept hollerin'.
Chris Stump- i was listenin' from the door... your breaks are dope, your time is coming. keep up the good work.
Tim Black - dude, i was so stuck at the door, but i've heard that you were great... we'll hafta get you in the main room sometime so i can hear
Jon Owens, Child of the Beat- i didn't get to catch any of you guys, but i saw sweaty people coming outta the VIP area, so you must've done something right
Outtatownahs-
Felix- totally rocked it and was a super nice guy to boot. we were lucky to have him here and honored that he loved out city so much.
Assault - while he's no stranger to the ville, I hear he played a killer set.
Dizzy - i only caught the end, but thanks for keeping the energy up right 'till the end. you were great to work with...thanks.
Tim Fusion - rounding out the chi-town/Louisville connection, this guy is the bomb. sorry i missed your set, thanks for coming down.
2)What a
finnnne crowd we had there.
Thanks to everyone who came out... it was you and your willingness to have a good time that made the party feel as good as it did. The DJ plays a record and sends a vibe. you all sent it back x 10. the DJ built on it and sent it right back. the walls were crawling and it was because you all and your love.

Thank you for your hours. Thank you for your sore arms and backs from moving equipment. thank you for climbing ladders, cutting a bazillion circles out of gels, making flags and running to walmart to buy candles at 5 am. Thank you for finding babysitters and for standing at the door (or even outside the door) with me in the cold. thanks for gritting your teeth and bearing it on more than one occaision. thank you to the significant others for letting us borrow your boyfriends/girlfriends/wives/husbands/partners. thank you for letting me be a part of this awesome team that does amazing things on a regular basis. thank you for being my friends. bless you for being my family.
The moral of the story is THANK YOU! It takes DJs AND Party Kids AND production crew to do what we did. we are each crucial and therefore should each take credit for what we created....which is an incredible night full of memories that none of us is soon to forget.
Love you all,
Lindz
