Sorry you feel that way, boy then you're REALLY going to hate the ticket price structure. :-)
So get this, we offered Owenhoff a stage at Dark Skies on NO LESS than 6 seperate occasions. The blew us off, total rock star crap, no reply's, vague answers, "we'll get back to you when we have time" bullshit. Like we're some kids who live in moms garage who decide to produce events.
Now we see why.
Just fucking great guys, lets have competing events on the same fucking night! Way to 'bring the scene together'. I bet you're so proud. I guess you'll show us huh?
Yea I'm fucking pissed! We claimed this date over a month ago.
Fuck this shit.
This is some low class shit, but then I guess that what this town is about.
Best of luck, C.

cammy is right i remember that date being said quite awhile ago... plus its hard to secure land. takes months of pre-planning people. give some respect here!! I'm sure ownehoff can swing it a week after.. they should realize that this would be a HUGE promotion tool for them
edit: just found thread http://www.eternalbeats.net/portal/viewtopic.php?t=11900

On the second page it speaks of the date change...
his mailing list also announced the changes...
All of the "rave" promoters (or promoters of other events catering to that crowd) need to get together so they may not step on one another's toes. The "scene" of Vegas doesn't consist of enough individuals to support having multiple events on one evening and have both be successful.
Cameron, your ideas for events are the most inventive and well thought out that I've seen in Vegas... and while I missed the first Dark Skies, the Santa Rampage was a total blast, and the times I've stopped into Space Invaders it has always had a wonderfully eclectic crowd! Cudos to you sir.

have fun with that... from what eric tells me you guys have a blast out there.

Wed Feb 23, 2005, 11:17 PM
Yeah that really does sound like a bad combo... though then again I haven't seen the site... if it's got ample bathroom/shower facilities I can't see a 3 day stint being that bad... Cammy, sign me up... wouldn't mind playing either if you got the space! :)

I didn't mean to get you all pissed, so for that I'm sorry. There are more reasons as to why I can't go to your event, but rather I can go to Owenhoff's. First, I'm only 16/17 and getting my parents to allow me to stay 3 days at an event would be proving difficult, hell I have a hard time getting them to let me go to Fall Rally in Southern California for Key Club. Second, if I would be able to go, my parents would most likely enforce the LV curfew, which they have been known to do, so I wouldn't even be allowed to stay the whole 3 days, but you would make us stay and not allow us to leave the premises(SP?).
I was just mentioning Owenhoff's event for those people like me, who still want to party, but can't go to the event you scheduled, which I'm pretty sure would kick ass.

Dark Skies sucks, don't go. Our new slogan, thanks.
This event is going to happen with or without the support of this entire community, minors and otherwise.
Until we all get out of the mindset, that our own particular crews are gods gift to planet earth, nothing is going to change. And we're stuck with mexican polka. Is that really the future of Las Vegas? $5 beers and goons?
The whole no in-out policy is to prevent DUI, and to foster a sense of community during the event, rather than everyone leaving (an leaving their garbage for the rest of us to clean up) after their friend's have done their sets. We'll let people go to work, we'll let people go to the store, we'll let you go home and get more stuff.
We will not however let a bunch of day trippers trash this site and then leave. If you're not camping, you're not there. This is a camping trip.
BOTTOM LINE:
The event would be stronger and better with ALL of you there.
But it's going to happen either way. And it's not a party, a rave, or a music festival, it's an arts festival where we just so happen to lay down some of the darkest grooves this side of Detroit. Then we're going to burn some stuff and eat pancakes.
Competing events cannot be good for anyone involved. I don't care if some kids can't come. I care that somone I respect is apparently that oblivious and short sighted. And that pisses me off.
Dark Skies is WE. Take it or leave it folks.
If anybody has a better idea as to how to do this, we're listening.
We've still got 1 stage location to fill.

Don't worry about the people who are posting up about not coming... Honestly, I'd rather have a smaller crowd anyway. Too many ravers in an outdoor setting could be troublesome.

But i have a job and a gf (whos bday happends to be the 20th) so theres no way i would be able to attend such an event!

Fri Feb 25, 2005, 02:11 AM
Camron isn't really catching shit for this. No one is BASHING dark skies, they just don't agree with the regulations. No one said it's going to suck, they just said that with the restrictions, they don't want to go. Perhaps it would be a bit better if people couldn't leave until Noon. That gives everyone a bit of time to sober up, but after the sun goes down, no leaving?

Awwwww shit - I caused a lot of Trouble - First of all sorry Cameron it is a small mistake for a date that I didnt realize you already had, I was just geting a date far enough in the future, and forgot about Dark Skies. You could ask me instead of just complaining about it on the posts. On the other hand, the way you talked about us is a bit rude we are not asses, and I never blew you off for the DS event, just told you these trips out to the site are difficult when people work and your making the schedual for them. I never told you no, but after what you wrote about us before you even talk to me is a bit extreme....
Also my date is changed, done - no problem. I am also staring a brand new job, and getting three days off in a row to do a camping event is not possible in my first month of work, thats a lot to ask from an employer.
I really wanted to do your event the date was just a mistake, but I guess you like to burn bridges before you build them because we are "rockstar bullshit" and rude, and never reply right??
You should have just called me before you started all this shit..

Fri Feb 25, 2005, 02:37 PM
Another bridge burned in the las vegas community.
And yeah cam... lol you werent describing the Owenhoff guys I Know.
Everybody who does events in this scene has perfect intentions... Expanding, and Glorifying the community.
Why does it always end up eveybody is at everybody elses throats?
Ebeats vs Eraver
nettwerk vs awol
rave vs club
now
Cam vs Ownehoff
lol
I think it would be awesome if i was a resident DJ for every crew in vegas. I think that would be an excellent display of unity.
UUNITEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

i think you guys are equally responsible for burning this bridge.....
PROVE YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE THE ROCKSTAR MENTALITY AND LET IT GO AS MISCOMMUNICATION, AFTER-ALL CAM HAD THE DATE WAY BEFoRE YOUS.....maybe you could understand his frustration or you guys can be asses on not.....
either way fire is cool, but not needed at this time....so lets take this great fire extinguisher and stop the bridge from burning....

You guys at Owenhoff seem to have a nasty problem with jumping to conclusions. Yeah, Maybe Cam overreacted a bit, but then again, he's trying to throw together a unique event, and getting reamed for it. How would you react?
Yeah Mark, it might be awesome for you to be a resident of every crew in town, but I for one would hate to see that. Sure we need to bring the community together, but we want unity, not conformity... ::shrug::
Either way, PANCAKES NAD MIMOSAS!!!!!! \:D/

Your event is indeed unique, and we would help in the best way we were able to, but I had asked you many times for more info and you never gave me that info. After Storm, I took a step back to take care of my family after the shit that happened to me the day of the party, and things got busy at work, but yer slammin us because we didn't get back to you fast enough...come on bro...relax We were not trying to ream you for doing an event, I believe it was you who reamed us for not helping you fast enough...If you want help then you should ask when it's do-able for those you want to come and meet up, not set a time and flip if people don't show up.

I am getting too emotional to be sure. And I'm sorry for apparently starting yet another flame war on this list.
We take these events to heart like they are our baby's or something. We own them, It becomes more than just another party for us the producers, it becomes an obsession, and not always a healthy one either.
Owenhoff: I was hurt by the dates you booked, you have changed that date, I am sorry, I hope we are cool or can be again. I would rather get along with you than throw competing events. We intend to live in Las Vegas for many years, that's what matters.
Dark Skies is the result of over 4 years of work. I don't expect you all to 'get it' because it's different. this is not what we're used to or what we've come to expect. I don't expect you all to rush out to Wal-Mart and buy $19 tents and $9 sleeping bags. (yep, they're THAT cheap)
Just bear with us here okay? We've got this figured out, the plan works because Burningman is grossing $8.5 million using this very business plan right here, they wrote this book. And they're directly advising us on this one (dig that). If you're going to do outdoor events on public land, the 'no in-out', and all the other regs are simply the only thing that works. We didn't pull these rules out of our asses, there REALLY IS a method to the madness guys.
But if you're not even going to listen to my 'sales pitch', and if you're not even going to come out and see the site and let me show you what we're thinking, then we're kinda fucked before we get going, in regards to other crews getting involved and producing their own stages. This is not just a space.
Because regardless of what I've posted on this list, and what I've emailed any of you directly, you simply do not understand what we are doing here (or why), because if you did you'd be jumping on this opportunity.
Or, I'm simply fucked in the head. \:D/

yeah i dunno what to say.. i started to post a responce after the first page of replies nto knowing that there was a second page....
so my initial reaction was of discust...
i cant find where owenhoffernackle had posted up that date for an event and i agree that you totally jumped down thier throat and came off like a total dick..
i am totally turned off by this event if this is a precursor to having to deal with you on a event that will obvilously run into much more complicated tasks... calling owenhoff would have been easy and if you cant seem to get the easy shit done why would i put my time, money, and rep on the line for a event that you seem not to be able to work with others on....
you say you want this to be a comunity event but what im reading is its my way or the high way.. i agree with the meet times youve set.. i get only a few days notice and there is no options for meet times.. that is very difficult when your in the pimp bizzness ,,,lol,,,
i also think you have a hard time dealing with the fact that people cant read your mind.. im sure you have alot into this and you throw up hints here and there but you never explain what and why things got to be your way.. and you get way to excited when you read something that some punk ass chose to put up... educate these people dont bag on them.. you have called people "self proclaimed gods" on this board a few times and i take big offence to that cause you seem to leave it open like your calling every promoter a selfish dick...
basically your the one acting like a twit on here and after i read the second page of posts i think things have simmerd down a bit but i still have many reservations about getting involved in this event..

I'm not participating in a flame war on a public list with you Chad. it's not happening.
We get the message okay? "Dark Skies sucks, don't go" We hear you man, we hear what you're saying. MESSAGE RECEIVED LOUD AND CLEAR okay buddy? I just can't waste anymore energy on the negative. It means nothing. It's not producing anything.
The October reference is when the next Dark Skies will be scheduled, probably the first weekend of that month. We will begin offering stages to local producers probably as soon as the May event is done.
So when I say "hope to see you October" it means I hope you'll participate in that.
The offer still stands for May too.
We're having a meeting tonight at Woody's at 9pm about this event and everyone is welcome.
Cheers, C.

Camron, no one is saying Dark Skies sucks, alot of people like the Dark Skies concept and event, they just don't like YOU. You aren't burning the symbol of the sun, with Dark Skies, you're burning every bridge you should be creating by being a promoter. You honestly create problems with everyone who wants to help you.
And correct me if I'm wrong, but why are you even posting this on E-Beats? Last I heard, You didn't want to bring in E-Beats and its Raver's to your events.
You are succeeding in turning what should be an open fun event to an Elitist shitfest. Your fantasies of a second coming of Burning Man are going to fall on deaf ears if you manage to push away every decent promoter in this city. Do you understand that Camron? Keep this up, and you're going to have to move, because there aren't enough Bry's in the world to carry your coattails.
Please don't run your career into the ground the same way you have run Blank Canvas into the ground. Ever since I've even heard of you, I've heard of you taking people for granted, ignoring input and making sure that your LV Artists and Desert Party Planners projects are dictated by your Opinions and yours only.
You are killing it, Cam, no one else, just you.

im just saying that the way your dealing with shit is very negative and im being honest about why i have reservations about helping out in this event...
and again... you post something up without explaining what the hell your talking about.... ie: the october thing.. no one can read your mind..

i really don't see what cammyjams done wrong, i don't know him well like some of you
i do agree about the can't leave a party thing, if i gotta go i gotta go
don't say no leaving if you don't plan on telling me that in person at the party like the first dark skies i left early and the same rule applied and i didn't hear shit.
cause if anyone told me i can't leave a party ill be the first one to bust your face open.
sorry but hey...
i know his type...he's not meaning to burn bridges(that i know of) he's trying to promote everyone staying at a party
thats all
like i said, i was at the last dark skies and had someone pick me up cause it was cold as fuck and i had shit to do the next day
and he and his crew had the same rules applied but didn't give me shit...not cause im violent...cause im not....cause they don't really mean what they say. they are tryin to promote a better vibe and a better vibe is when everyone stays at a party(mean what you say brotha)
if your gunna go clubbin afterwards don't go to this,
if you got work in the morn then go and leave early
be a man and go to this party, umm your car keys...don't let ANYONE TAKE EM. i don't give a hell who you are nobody takes your keys or your freedom to come and go as you please.
and if someone lol, tries to tell you, you can't leave
well grab the nearest rock and bust em up side the head
ill be there watching out for this.
if you know me well, you know what im talkin bout.
this should be the sickest shit to be at when it happens....all the stages and cool people not buncha security tellin you can't drink and walk here blah blah
bands, dj's all that other crap who cares, the weather is gunna be great...we outnumber the *cough* nevermind....just show up and have a good time and do your thing like in 99
your might not be able to experience these kind of parties in the future...so if your all about the underground i suggest you go. all the local hommies have a stage here and will be spinning im sure, just imagine those same people in the place but outdoors in a massive setting...common

PLUR... Camron isn't about Plur. This asshole was insulting members of LV Artist's who wanted to even involve E-Beats and the Vegas rave scene into his elitist group of Cammyjammers. Camron isn't concerned with everyone having a good time, Camron isn't concerned with the good music, He is concerned with taking credit for something successful. He is reaching out for someone to give him some credit. That is why he insists on "My Way of the Highway". He wants to take credit for everything. Thats why he shamelessly keeps right hand men around, disposable members of his outfit. He has abandoned successful contributors to his events before, multiple times, and he will again. Eventually even Bry will be bitter and malcontent about Camron.
And let me once again remind everyone that Camron is a grown man. He is an adult, and he is threatening me with Physical violence because I have an honest opinion about the way he uses and abuses the promoters and thinkers of our community. Camron honestly thinks he can get away with it. The thing that is even more funny about it, is Camron has accused both Dan Aikens and Sheena Farley of BEING me, so his threat is at a Man who has done nothing but help him and a Girl who has attempted to help him multiple times. Very professional, very hip, very PLUR Camron.
This guy actually let his Wife (who doesn't show up and support these events) dictate the LVArtists staff by kicking out one of the people who brought in a crowd that even Camron himself has admited does not show up to First Friday anymore since Sheena left. These people claimed that the people that helped promote with Camron were "Taking food from their Child's Mouth" by not basically offering to pay for these events out of their own pockets.
Wasn't the crowd, DJ's, artists, and content enough for you Camron, or do you have to take credit for other Promoter's funding also?
Well I'm curious, and by the way, this will give you an idea of the Insight of Lord Cammyjams, Camron dressed up in a dress, and knee high boots for Feather's blacklight party. He dressed as a Tranny because for the event, Trannie's entered for free.
He was wearing a pair of $55 dollar boots. To save $10 dollars at the door. So, tell me how those boots taste when you serve them as dinner for your Children, Camron. Because if anything is taking the food from your Child's mouth, its buying a pair of silly ass boots to go act a fool at the party of a bunch of people who don't enjoy your company.
Camron, there isn't a single thing you can do to me. You better pray to whatever Moon god you pretend to worship that I don't get jumped, I don't get jacked, that I don't even feel a bit froggy when I wake up in the morning. Because we have proof of you making threats towards me when I have done NOTHING but express my opinion, one that MANY people share. Its in the best interests of Camron's Funcrusher Express LLC that I stay out of harm.
Very intelligent. Very Mature. Good job doing everything humanly possible to destroy your promoting reputation, you thick fuck.
---------Bobby 'weenus' Hicks
And for a little bit of backround on me, Camron, I write for www.gotfrag.com I am a very well known personality in quite a few communities both on and off of the internet. I have been posting poetry on E-Beats for years now, and actually quite a few people know of me. If you had taken time while sitting on your fat ass to look at my screen name, or history, you could have found out who I am without fucking up your relationship with the only two promoters who will still put up with your shit. You are a fucking joke. Every promoter in town except for Hippie Groove knows you are a fucking Cancer. I hope Dark Skies actually is dope, so you have a prayer in hell to keep promoting around this town. I'd like to see an asshole go straight. I root for the underdog.

ok guys look i just created a new name but this is Sasha lil red ,or whatever you guys know me as . i think the trash talking of anyone trying to put on an event needs to stop. As for Cam ..... ive known him for a bit and at the blacklight party he actually paid the money to go in and dressed up for fun(i know this cause i was at the door all night) he like everyone else just wanted to have a fun time. i also wanted to comment how alot of promotersa in this town dont wnt outside influence on how there event should be ran. i think instead of everyone starting shit on a message board you should message that person individually about discrepencies you have with any person on the board because to be quite honest nothing anyone does is going to make everyone happy and im tired of reading all the drama. If you dont like the way someone throws a party then dont go. i mean constructive critisim is fine but bashing is not.....

so are there going to be djs playing 24hours a day, 3 days straight for this?
From 2 hours after sunrise,or 7:30 am, until 1:30pm on Saturday all sound systems are going dark, or turned WAY down so we can sleep and get ready for Satuday night.
I dont exactly understand this aspect of things...
Take the Rainbow gathering for instance... people sleepo as they feel needed and there are people making noise all hours of the night and day...
Take Burning man... Its a camping party with art , and lots of noise all hours of the day and night...
Take any music festival with camping on site.. Samre thing..
IMO i think there should be no silence , and the people attending should respect that and sleep as they feel needed..
What if were all on some kind of intoxicant and dont feel the need to sleep.. ?????????

who are you??
My name is Dan. If you're Nate, you were probably greeted by me at the gate at the first Dark Skies.
I helped found and build VegasArtists.com from the ground up. Myself and the others involved used to put up with the bullshit because during the really great events (especially late last year), I would tell myself that if a little bullshit was all a few people had to put up with for the many to have a great time, then it was worthwhile.
Now I see it differently... we complain about corrupt politicians in power. Fact is, we GIVE THEM power, because we lack faith in ourselves to ensure our own sustainability, and then they exploit us for their own trifling, selfish gains. The politician is nice to you if you have something that they want, but if they feel you are a threat to them then they fear you and attempt to either destroy you or keep you powerless.
You can have an event with all the stages, headliners and explosives in the world, but without PLUR, without real community involvement, all that is really happenning is a bill is being paid. Nothing evolves. It is mindless consumption.
What is more substantial is that we empower ourselves, work together creatively, and have fun doing it. If it's not fun, then it's pointless, and behind the scenes I saw nothing but politics, drama, and disrespect. That's why I resigned in 12/04 and will not be supporting Dark Skies or other VA events, at least not with the way things are now. Ignoring or covering up for another's destructive behavior towards others simply enables its existence.
I have been lurking on this board periodically for the past year, and find this forum to be a true community resource. Respect to everyone who keeps doing whatever it is that they're doing with love and sincerity... lawd knows it can be difficult sometimes.

I’ve been lurking on this list for a couple of months now and this is the first and probably last time I will post here. Who fucking cares?? Who cares if this Cameron guy is an asshole? From what’s being posted about him he probably caused the AIDS epidemic in Africa and we heard he’s a racist too. So why are you giving him any press? Why aren’t any of you doing something better than some stupid desert event? Because it’s a lot easier to tear someone down who has an original idea than to actually get off your lazy asses and do anything yourselves. This is pathetic. I’ve been back 10 pages through the posts, there’s nothing of any value being posted here, and that which is is quickly shot down in flames. Someone throws a party and the rest of you spend the next week tearing them down. Talking shit about how “so & so’s party was much better”, yet did you do anything to help? Nope you sit on your computers and start flame wars. How fucking original. Someone tries to do something and because you didn’t think of it or because you don’t agree with it or how they run their business you spend your lives trying to tear them down. You are all wasting you lives doing nothing and creating nothing and you wonder why you have nothing. Are you all really this stupid? Apparently so, all this drama, jeesh. You really have nothing better to do? What a complete waste of time and energy this list is. PLUR my ass, there is nothing on this board that even remotely resembles that because you guys come off like a bunch of junkies and losers. So you hate someone and you won’t support their event? Big fucking deal. Are any of you doing anything better, bigger, or more ambitious. This town has no scene because of the dumb ass punks on this list and juvenile haters. We did this to ourselves enjoy Junior High School the second time around kiddies. I’ll decide weather or not I’m going to this Dark Skies thing based on the line ups and what is being presented, not on weather some idiot starts a flame war. LOL.

who are you??
My name is Dan. If you're Nate, you were probably greeted by me at the gate at the first Dark Skies.
I helped found and build VegasArtists.com from the ground up. Myself and the others involved used to put up with the bullshit because during the really great events (especially late last year), I would tell myself that if a little bullshit was all a few people had to put up with for the many to have a great time, then it was worthwhile.
Now I see it differently... we complain about corrupt politicians in power. Fact is, we GIVE THEM power, because we lack faith in ourselves to ensure our own sustainability, and then they exploit us for their own trifling, selfish gains. The politician is nice to you if you have something that they want, but if they feel you are a threat to them then they fear you and attempt to either destroy you or keep you powerless.
You can have an event with all the stages, headliners and explosives in the world, but without PLUR, without real community involvement, all that is really happenning is a bill is being paid. Nothing evolves. It is mindless consumption.
What is more substantial is that we empower ourselves, work together creatively, and have fun doing it. If it's not fun, then it's pointless, and behind the scenes I saw nothing but politics, drama, and disrespect. That's why I resigned in 12/04 and will not be supporting Dark Skies or other VA events, at least not with the way things are now. Ignoring or covering up for another's destructive behavior towards others simply enables its existence.

You apparently did not read this thread in its entirity before you posted.
Point is, we have a local promoter threatening people with violence if they express an opinion they disagree with, and this whole thing started with that same promoter publicly disrespecting other local promoters who did not get involved with his event.
I, for one, do not condone this sort of behavior, and therefore will not be supporting events produced by people who act this way. I openly express that I was personally threatened (and wrongly accused) by this person, because people should know exactly who it is they are dealing with. To hide that person's behavior for them is to be an accomplice to further such actions.
No one has said anyone's events are better, no one has told anyone not to attend anyone's events... what has been stated are facts and opinions about those facts, by people who are actually involved with producing events in this town. Decide for yourself.

I cancelled my performance for this event and I will not be attending.
why would anyone want to be a part of an event where the promoter himself
say's "dark skies is gonna suck. don't go" OK... I won't...
my time is precious. i don't wanna waste it.

wholly shit this is nutzo soup *** note nutzo soup is not related to ratso soup*** yeah
how can one grown man cause so much childish dramma on the board... i literallly need to walk over to the trophy shop next door and buy this man a award..
and for the record.... i have a sneaking suspect that lord v oldi more is cammy.. i dunno ive been wrong before but how many people use the term "flame wars"
and lord vagina... you really think hosting a 3 day event in the desert is a "original idea" sorry bussy its been done 100 times before so dont go bashing us who disagree with cammys natzi like behavior..
i got involved in this discussion due to the fact that party number 1 asked me to get involved with his event,, and i was letting him know that i dont think freaking out on someone for an obvious miscomunication is the way to come off on a public fourum and that if he doenst take a chill pill i would risk my time, money and reputaion on someone who cant handle himself on a adult level...
ive been doing this shit for almost a decade... and i have never seen such a fucked event... sure the concept is there but man this shit got off on the wrong foot and ill be amazed if it turns out to be worth the time already spent on this shit...

A few notes, we're going to title this post: Why weenus is more intelligent than a 40 year old man and why LordVoidmemore doesn't have a point in a room full of knives.
A: No one ever said Dark Skies sucked or someone else threw a better party. That was never said. That was PROJECTED by Cameron onto the posters who just didn't agree with the rules and format. It never happened, it was never said. This is just one of the first points of proof that LordVeggies is Cameron.
B: Throwing a three day community party in the desert is not an original idea. Dark Skies is happening for the SINGLE REASON that Cameron wants to CREATE his own Community, based around his ideals, his enjoyment, and his name. A group of other people started Burning Man, Cameron couldn't get famous from it so he is trying to recreate it with Dark Skies. They even burnt an icon. Which, by the way, was suggested by Sheena, (burning the sun) which was an idea I gave to her. So yes, Cameron, your extremely originally event included a bonfire based around weenus. Congrats.
C: The first stone on this post and in this war was thrown by Cameron. No one else. I could copy and paste and quote dozens of COLD HARD IRRIFUTABLE FACTS based upon this arguement. Cameron started it. Cameron started it. Cameron started it. We didn't. So if you ARE Cameron, then you truely are a BIG LOSER and I hope to god your wife never lets you put your little, limp, pink pud inside her again, and you are forever punished in not being able to stick it in her cancer sack ever again. If you're not Cameron, then wonderful, not only are you illiterate, you are also ignorant, and are now proven completely wrong in every angle of your post.
Delete your account.
And die.
Thanks, your friendly neighborhood winner of all debates related to Cameron, weenus.

PS: Please Change the event name to Dark Weenus, or pay me a third of the entry fee for using an idea that I have copywritten. You will be hearing from my lawyer for this Cameron, thank you. I can't wait to hear your wife tell me that not only is my girlfriend Sheena taking food from your children's mouths, that now I am taking food from your children's mouths. They are going to go hungry like little third world comerical kids when I get through with you Mother Fucker.

damn WTF IS GOING ON. I mean common. WTF IS GOING ON HERE>
an innocent 3 day party is turning into a huge flame war.
first physical violence, then blantant name calling, now its gone and brought children and the family into it. WTF.
So wat if cameron wants to try and create something that has already been done. Burning man is like 375 dollars just to buy the presale tickets now and the price is just going up. Vegas doesnt have anything like burning man and it would be cool to have something like it. I know i cant afford that kind of money for a ticket to an event.
All i see here is Cammy obviously frustrated and frazzled from trying to throw parties for ungrateful assholes being torn a new asshole. And this "message board personality" who does nothing that i know of for the party scene shoot down everything. I learned my lesson the first time i posted a "bad party thread" about Groove is in the heart, wich obviously wasnt a bad party i was just bitter.
This kind of talk on this thread is wat makes people want to stop throwing parties and leave the scene, look wat you people did to hippiegroove after they threw one bomb fuckin party. idk. maybe im just rambling but i think this has really gone far enuff and should just end.
