Guest JustDade Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 How about an actual review?Was it packed? Was Barbarino right or wrong....total attendance? What time did Richie go on? How was Stryke? Did Ramon pee his pants? Girls? Did it go past 5am? Was Pod there? Any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlanS Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 It was packed to the rafters! I'd say 1000+ wouldn't be out of the question.I got there early, 11ish, to listen to Greg open. The most energy I've seen him put into a set recently, he had a hell of a good time up there! Played plenty of his new music that sound absolutely amazing on the dynacord rig.Paul Rich came on at 1ish, straight up Berlin style minimal, sequenced live. Perfect set up for Richie who did, well, what Richie does. As soon as I walked into the room and saw everthing that went into the production of the night, I said Richie is going to destory this room and that he did. Straight up banging beats and effects, big room vibe. The new dubfire rework of spastik sounded great. Even a flashback from the NYC gig earlier this year, when DT showed up in the booth.I left around 6, Rich was still on getting a little deeper and eclectic, quite a crowd still going. Plently of chics, all night. I don't know where you guys get this chics don't like techno BS.. lol And yes, I saw Pod there with camera in hand.Greaty vibe and crowd, def one hell of a party! I'll try to post a couple pics in a bit, think I got a couple decent ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ramon Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 Hawtin's re-edit of Ribcage wasn't too shabby either I guess it's what that was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ramon Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 I almost peed my pants when Richie played Ito & Star - Sudoko Kid on Leftroom Limited. It sounded absolutely fuckin immmense in that rooom. I'll put up a video soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlanS Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 Sorry, just DJs shots. The lighting was really only good for my point and shoot right when Rich went onhttp://farm3.static.flickr.com/2254/2112945053_1531cd69cf.jpgMore here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/astenback/sets/72157603463560608/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PawnshopLounge Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 Huge thanks goes out to Diego and the FutureMob crew and everyone at Track Entertainment. They put on a first rate production and I couldn't be more pleased with the turnout. It's nice to see dedicated professionals still exist in this city. Pawn Shops doors are open to you all anytime. On behalf of myself and staff, thank you.-Paul Brown-Operating Partner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deprivation Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 Lots of fun and nice layout of the club with the sound and visuals. Paul Ritch played a great set and Richie was great too what I saw. I didn't stay that long as I was tired from another party earlier that night. Hopefully, we'll see more big techno DJs come through Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NicoleC Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 Amazing party!Hopefully we have proven to Pawn Shop that we can carry an event like that outside of conference. Even with the 11th street district dong its best to try to draw over the EDM fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest future_mob Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 Thank you to everyone for the kind words, e-mails, calls and praise..In turn we'd like to say Thank you to everyone that supported and helped make this possible. This was among the most important events FM has produced to date.first, to everyone who attended and danced past 7 am on saturday morning.. this was for you.second, to a dedicated group of individuals who put countless hours of labor into this project. This collective shares a distinct vision and love for music: Jay, Mel, Ramon, Armando, Tony, Tomas, Tato, Carlos and Marcos.third, massive gratitude + respect to the following for their support and/or involvement: Bill Wilson, Cooljunkie: Isabel, Dan & Jipsy, Electronic Groove: Chris & Mauricio, Dynacord, Jeff Taylor, Pawn Shop: Paul, Ben, Kurt, Brando, Darwin + Team, Brian Gallant from Big Audio, Harold Cummings of Drummer Boy Sound, JC, Jaime, Carlos, Aubrey, Nicole Chipi, Benjamin, Rebeca and Natalia.fourth, to everyone that did not want this to happen for their own reasons and those who doubted in us and in Miami. You helped fuel us.last but not certainly not least, to Richie, Stryke and Paul for an inspiring experience and their incredible art.. guys like these are the one that give this world dimension through their music..we continue doing our best to help shape the future of Miami's electronic music culture and beyond.. one mind at a time, one event at a time.. with every record..thank you all, again.Wishing you all the best during these holidays and in the new year,The Mob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest future Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 Amazing party!Hopefully we have proven to Pawn Shop that we can carry an event like that outside of conference. Even with the 11th street district dong its best to try to draw over the EDM fans.Nicole,Thank you for the kind words, but...Respectfully, there was nothing to prove to Pawn Shop. As a matter of fact, they were more excited about doing this event than any other venue in Miami could. It took a whole 10 second phone call in October for them to say they loved the idea of me bringing Richie to back to their venue. Both managers are huge fans of the music and of Richie since his early works, you should not make these assumptions but rather thank them and buy them a drink next time you see them because they also were incredibly cooperative and supportive in making this work for you and everyone else. Please also understand the clear differences that exist in the roles of music event organizers and a given venue's in-house event direction. Clubs are businesses and they have to market themselves accordingly to market trends and responses, it's not that they don't care about our music. Pawn as the venue host, was simply stellar - they took a risk on me and with me, like true champs.The only people that something was probably proven to was to ourselves and Miami at large.This event had little to do with clubs.Just ask anyone who worked on it for the last two months.. they are the ones who brought upon 'the proof' for you to enjoy.

Ask anyone that ran into me both before and after Friday night - I couldn't stop raving (no pun intended) about how great this party was and how hopefully it means we can have bigger and better events outside of WMC.Although my initial comment was brief, in my head, I actually meant we have proven to venues like Pawn Shop that we can do this. Not just as a specific promotion group or a specific venue, but as a whole - the EDM community, the club-goers, the partiers, etc. Of course I understand that the clubs are a business which is why I feel it is important to prove to them that someone can bring in DJ's like Richie and modify the set-up and the sound system and make things work. A business model is a business model and more people might be willing to take a risk if it isn't so risky. But the fact is that I don't need to be educated on the different roles of the business side of things. I just want good parties to happen. I want the younger generation to be introduced to the music that I grew up with. I don't care who throws the parties or about any of the behind the scenes stuff at this point because I want to be able to go, have a good time, and for others to do the same.Besides, it seems as if there are a lot more of us who "worked" to make this happen as well. Word of mouth is a powerful tool.... almost everyone I told to go not only purchased a ticket and brought all their friends, but were drinking it up as well. I had a great time, but should I even jokingly be told to buy Pawn Shop a drink because I attended a great party? Really? Wow....P.S. Thank you for everyone who helped make this party happen. I know there were some disbelievers, but there were many many people that did what they could to make this party a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest musicalmissionary Posted December 18 Report Share Posted December 18 I must say that this was easily one of THEE best non-conference parties I have been to in my 5+ years in Miami. Every element of it was top-notch. If you couldn't handle the packed main room, the back room had room to move and sit and did not compromise sound or sight. There was plenty of mingling at the bars... plenty of hot chicks... and lots of cool peeople to meet and party with.I won't even comment on the music other than to say it was RIDICULOUS!!I hope there is more to come...
