BIT Live Stockholm 2008 (Sept 13th) - Thanx for the fun!

[leoni]

Hey and thanks everybody for making this event to what it was!

I had a blast the entire weekend; I dunno what to say more but my cheeks hurt from smiling

[Mika73]

Mika73: Did you found somewhere to hang out after the party?

Well.. There was quite lot people hanging at that Mc Donalds.. It was total full. And lot polices did hang outside.

I was 3th who did walk in to event and we did leave when that man at suit did come and ask us to leave.. ´This event is over..´

We did play atleast PitStop and River Raid, it was funny when some swedish dudes come to ask ´Where are you from, after Finland, they ask if I wanna play SexGames..´ No thanks.. But I should have loaded Stroker for them..

There was amazing many discs next to C64s, but really difficult find anything.. Tryed find games like Up´N Down, Petch, Tapper, M.U.L.E etc, I wish I had taken MMC64 with me and load games from there. Also one C64C was.. I dont know if it had poltergeist.. Did turn power of cople times and River Raid just did keep coming back to screen.. And same happend after remove pover cable.. No it was not cartridge version..

Home and still alive. How your trip at home gone? Is Mr Sunshine still alive?

Yes. I think he is.

I did drive him to his home and then finally got back home myself.

Did you find your homekey? You got inside or write from library..

[c64finn]

No ,but I have spare key so everything is fine now. Sorry my late answer, but I watched newest Rambo. It´s going offtopic so it´s better go back in time.

The evening was *excellent*

It was so great to meet and greet Slaygon, Makke, Andreas, Ziphoid and all the others I so far have had only an avatar/name for.
Now I know you are the kind of cool and friendly guys I always thought you'd be.

The performances were top notch, I especially liked the Mutants with Fred Gray. During Reyn's set I barely couldn't do anything but stare in awe of his skills in musical expression. Jeroen Tel's DJ set excelled anything that I could have been waiting for; dancing to Cybernoid brought tears of joy into my eyes

Thank you Ziphoid & Andreas, thank you Reyn, Jeroen, Romeo Knight and all the other performers!
Now I need to get more sleep, 3 1/2 hours of sleep between a brilliant weekend and monday@work isn't anywhere near enough..

[Mayhem]

And that's one reason I took today off

[Makke]

It was so great to meet and greet Slaygon, Makke, Andreas, Ziphoid and all the others I so far have had only an avatar/name for.

Yes, it was really cool to meet you Ferrara, after have listened to your remixes since forever. You're one of those really early remixing heroes, from back when the community wasn't as organized as it is today.

And the main resource for remixes was the Triad page for MP3s, and BlueNine archive for tracker formats!

[Misser]

So and I'm home again also after a little 5 day vacation filled with lots a good memories, it went by to fast.

John and Andreas again thanks for a marvellous event. I had lots off fun and the guys rehearsing got my sinuses open wide again The whole behind the scene part was amazing!

It was great to meet up with all the familiar persons and some new ones. Having Fred in the apartment was nice, got to spend some quality time with him. He's an even nicer bloke than I thought!

Andy, I hope you liked what Fred and I did to try to get your apartment a bit back to the way it usually is

@Waz I tried calling but that didn't work. Needless to say none got on stage to Day-O a bit (you where missed). But the crowd joined in and I think Anders (the new bassplayer, nice guy btw) didn't know what was going on

*edit bloody typo's. I need a week to recover!

[o2]

Like everyone else, i just want to say thank you very much John & Andreas for making this wonderful event happening.

[merman]

That was a great weekend! Finally got home this afternoon (like Copenhagen, my train fares ended up costing me more than the plane fare, work that one out!) and have a huge backlog of e-mails to sort through. Will get the photos and videos uploaded tomorrow some time.

Quick greets to John and Andreas for their brilliant organisation, to friends old and new that I met over the weekend and to Sweden for being such a lovely place. Hopefully it won't be another twenty years before I come back to visit...




Oh, and when's the next one?
