ok Ive been arounf since the late 80s when raves evolved in norht america out of the underground wearhouse scene influnced by what was happening in the UK at the time. Ive seen these scene go from 200 people events to 1000000000 person events go from being called raves to parties to some thing called post rave or electronic music event. Ive seen the parties go from illegal venues into legal club spaces and back out again. Ive seen the popularity of different substance come and go at these things and the same about the musci happening at these events...
the one thing I will never understand is these kids who are always tring to live in the past always talking about in the day or talk about an old school vibe who cares about what happened in the past who cares about what vibe was when and where... electronic music which is the backbone of all this stuff is about forward thinking not about backward thinking so stop living in the past and we can all move on to a bigger and brighter future... :)

check your messages again dude...
dont bother installing icq Im at work so email me...

I just did check yours ;)

oh and the sound still leave a lot to be desired there... they still have a long ways to go in that area... its a huge concreat space what that means is its a echo chamber no matter how you set up the sound there unless you can take the time have the funds to erect a sound curtain that goes all the way around and some thing on the ceiling .. so that the sound doesnt bounce all over the place like a rubber ball the size of the space makes such a venture very costly...
its some thing they need to address I personally think....

you took the words right outta my mouth...
its the reason why there is no more clonk parties in this city he ran clonk into the hole for 3 grand...the last party I did there... :(
so no more clonk for the time being that is...

if you need admin rights forget it your locked out of the box and youll need to put in a request to your locak lan admin to get installation rights to that box... basically your fucked...
;)

yeah I opened for adam x at a wabi party 2 years ago in toronto at the reverb. hes one awesome dj lots of EBM type of techno....
nice and hard gritty stuff...
hes also a nice guy to boot...

hey amanda if you need help let me know I have great job searching and resume making skills...
Ive helped people get jobs when there were no jobs to be found...
I also have some contacts for jobs that might be usefull for you... especially if your into call center type of work (not telemarketing jobs how ever working on phones doing entry level tech support type of jobs if that interests you I can put you in touch with some 10 to 15 dolalr an hour type of jobs.. dont worry if you cna use a computer your more then qualified...) :)
you should also try the job boards like:
[ monster.ca ]
[ workopolis.ca ]
[ jobboom.com ]
there are others but they arent really all that good these ones are probally the best ones to use give them a try youll be very surprized at how well they work.

I think its quite hard to get a decent job in mtl sure you can find any old mcjob here in the city but a job that you like and want to stick with can take a while... I worked a variety of shitty mctechjob for just over a year since I moved back to mtl. but after some presisitance and lots of hard work of contantly appling for jobs I scored a great job just recently...
so dont give up Im sure things will work out sooner or later...

ok well regarless violence it not a nessary responce to any thing...
:)

man your one fucked up puppy who hits any one never mind a girl... to quote brother malcom: whats this world comming to...

ahhh but Im not to many people...
and Im not abusive of the privilege of haivng a shell... I just want to be able to check email via pine from any where with out having to deal with pop3 mail and to be able to use the command line so I dont loose all my unix skills... :)
but if your not giving them out thats cool I understand...
thanks just the same...

how about a shell account???
;)
seriously do you give out shell accounts ....
????
just courious and if so how would one such a guy get one from you?

cool there is nothing pussy about house, minimal techno or glitchy dubby techno its all as in your face as any thing else...
thanks dude for the props again... regardless...

what impromtu naw vs kilobyte set? we played solo unless there was some stuff going on that I had no idea about :)
any how props to you steve for putting together such an awesome event in what I can say is the closest venue to the old detroit venues I used to go to in the 90s... that space was awesome and would love to use it my self for some thing in the future.... so dont be sorry for the venue it rocked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks again steve!

thanks man that means a lot from some one who plays music that is so polar opposite to what I make ...
your set was pretty cool also...youve got some good skills to be able to play under the conditions you had and still pull it all off like nothing was wrong...

hahaha that same girl came up to me 10 mins into my set and ask me can you play some drum and bass... I looked at her with my "whatcha talkin 'bout willis" look but I didnt have the heart to tell her now Im doing this stuff live, so I did the old Ill see what I can do for you... ;)

I dont think if your doing it you think its wrong...I didnt... my dad Im sure didnt...
guilt is a subjective thing and if your guilt ridden then you think its wronng then you shouldnt be doing it but if you are doing it then you shouldnt have any problems with it... I mean as long as both parties are of legal age and are concenting its all cool..
I leanred my lesson and decided that its not for me... who needs to relive what you went through 10 years earlier..by dating someone 10m years younger then you if your into it that thats cool and if it works for you then thats cool for you...

this is a dissapointment no live pa's booked
and on my birthday to boot...
hint hint knudge knudge....steve...
;)
neil...

bump

in my past I dated a lot of women who were between 8 and 10 years younger then me and I have to say that the in your teens and 20s nothing more then a few year difference and after that in your 30s its a free for all... it is all about life experince and someone in their 30s has had a lot more experince then some one in their 20s as someone in thier 20s has had over some one in thier late teens as some one compared to thier early and pre teens...
how ever with that said I do know that someone in thier 40s is looking for some thing different then someone in their 30s...
so my findings is that at any age nothing more then a 5 year age difference is usually the best combination for a nice long term relationship....
any thing else and its probally not going to work but there are exceptions to the rule...
(my parents are 11 years apart and still in love after 41 years)

whats the deal I was paroozing some of my favorite toronto stes and noticed that on nov 28th photek is playing in toronto along with dillinga and lemon d
with a shit load of other drum and bass
for the most part this doesnt over interest me but why isnt any one brinign photek to montreal?
I mean the guy is only a few hours away...
Im not the largest drum and bass fan but I am a large photek fan (minus his last record: solerus, which I was not sure what to make of it)
any how does any one have any answers about this how did that happen that such a "large" name could come through here and miss montreal compleatly? I know that torontos drum and bass scene is larger and more established then montreals but hes still not some unknown artist.... Im sure whom ever would bring him in would definatly not loose money on it...hell I bet they can throw in lemon d and dillanger as part of the package and that would up the turn out ...any how this just goes to show you that its a sad day when a tech head like my self who doesnt care about drum and bass for the most part is asking this question... this sort of stuff I would think would be talked about and dealt with in the jungle community... as aposed to a technogeek like me noticing it.... :(
(I want photek to play in montreal, I dont want to go see him at some huge rave at the government in toronto for 30 bucks...) ;)

os x is based on neXt os I didnt say it it runds neXt I said that its based on the neXt kernal.. its why apple bought over neXt way back...and the banqerupt the company so he can exploit the OS into the MAC OS...
get your facts strait and read my posts befor posting your comments...
open source does not mean that the OS is insequre it means that people have the code to use to make things to run on the OS... exploiable means that people can hack the security systems of an os to exploit hacks/viruses/attacks...if you lock down a linux box and you lock down a windows box its the windows box that will be attacked more easily then the linux box... its a proven fact...
also dont talk down to me by calling me SON fisrt of all Im probally your senior in both age and tech experince... (Im 35 and have been working in the tech industry for the past 10 years: Ive worked for most of the larger backbone providers around - UUnet and ATT for example...so dont talk donw to me please)

I never said linux wasnt I said mac os or unix isnt...
how ever with ssh2 it is now harder to exploit linux machines...

I used it as a server at the customers request not mine I explained this to them but they wanted all thier machines including the servers to be xp who am I to argue... you dont have to tell me unix is best Im a unix person first and formost...
as for all your BS about mac I still say shut the fuck up you dont know what your talking about...
at all... os X is based on the neXt OS which is a flavor of *nix as bsd, solarus, as/400, linux is...
your on a lame crusade crawl the fuck outta your cave adn realise that people are not interested in being victims of MS any more.
people will stand up and take control of thier computing lives and mac is a good way to do this as is open source applications...
as for cross platform development that has all changed with os x its very very easy to develope an app over both platforms now with out much trouble....

of course I admin a number of xp pro networks and a few servers and have seen many a crash in xp pro. of course the crashes are not as frequent or as bad as with early windoz os versions but they still crash... not to mention all the windows viruses... there is only one known virus for mac and it was taken care of back in 98 when they went from os 8 to 9 the os iis very hard to exploit a virus on same for unix/linux os some thing pc's still have problems with...
as for parts mac does not allow for clones for a reason...it brings the price of the machines up more but how many pc owners do you know can say they have a functioning machine from 1987? one of my unix boxes is my first computer from 87 a mac 2
all with its orginal hardware... working as a firewall to my personal network... how many pcs do you know that are 16 years old and still functioning perfectly with orginal hardware...
I bet none...

if you still are of the frame of mind that PeeCees are better then mac's you are living in the stone ages... get a life...
sure mac's are more directed towards creative uses where are pc's are best for office use...
I use 4 differnt platforms pc, mac, unix and linux and they all have thier plus's and minuses..
there is no real use in having a mac vs pc debate...
so death sit down and shit the fuck up!
do some research and learn some thing befor you talk! the mac processor has surepassed the processor power of a pc long time ago the OS is open sourced and like linux is os X is unix based ..... much more robust then windows is for certain types of jobs like video, audio and grafical editing...
windows is still dos based a cheaper version of unix that is not as robust as say the current mac OS or unix which is why windows machines crash all the time or run out of resources... faster then a mac/unix os...
mac hardware is standardised and only made by apple there for it is of a higher quality then some random generic pc parts producer whos parts are not standardised and are just cheaply made...for the most part...
as for no much software there is pleanty of software for mac now just as much as on the peecee...
shall I go on...
this sort of argument is stupid and a waste of everyones time!

oh yeah and what ever you do DO NOT BUY A SECOND HAND PC... I would buy a second hand mac or sun box but never a second hand pc...

chelse
befor you buy come talk to me...
you know Im uber geek... and can point you in a good direction with out talking any other language other then english to you ;)
you know how to get a hold of me if you still want this help...

hey steve can you get in touch with me you know my email address/phone number.... so please get back to me...
(I no longer have MSN so dont bother tring to find me that way)
(chelse if you see this, please get steve to get in touch with me)
thanks oh and yeah everyone go to subculture!!!!!!!

yo seb Ive been out of the loop recently CONGRATES!!!!!!!

ummmm Miss Amanda the drummer from black flag had played with the misfits on and off for many years...
he reocrded with them for the earth ad record and I even belive he recorded with them for the walk among us record also as for marky ramone well what ever its probally an honor for both parties to play with a ramone and a ramone to play with the misfits so I dont see it as a problem at all...
how ever I didnt go to this show so I dont know how good or bad it was.,..

yeah well what ever...
who fucking cares it was a question is all the point wasnt that some one acctually stole the label name it was ore of a figure of speach ...
more of a means through which to find out about this guy... you all focused on the label so much that I leanered more on my own about the headliner... its no real biggie for me Im not really a hardcore fan so... what ever... i would have been happy just no listening to any thing over hardcore..and I be ok with you if you decide to diss techno... like I said what ever man... its all music...

umm your a little late my friends came adn went last weekend....

I ended up going there to hang out with them and we went to the cube in fact we were staying up the block from it in the really nice b and b...
so no worries...

what the deal with the headliner hes not a noise factory records artist... is that a production company in france or some thing? or is it a hardcore label that stole the name from the toronto minimal post electronic music label?

ok guys thanks Ill let them know...
I used to live in QC for 6 months back in 98 but I wasnt sure what has changed or not so thanks for all the info...

ok thanks for all the info guys...

ok its not for me but Ill pass along the info they work on a cruise ship thats docking there friday night untill sunday night...
Ill pass along the info...

yeah this is some thing steve and I have talked about at length many times about starting up a weekly or monthly on a saturday night its just a question of venue at this point and time...
