Smartie. Note: Another night at paintball...
the whole place this time. Sorry, but dirt, raining drops of paint,
mulch and all... I still liked it. Were there too many people
here? Why don't you ask the few hundred that were left in the
street when the door was finally closed? I've been to too many
parties lately where a large turnout has been expected and few
have shown up... talk about killing a vibe! Empty space is death
to a party... and if that's the case, this was the most alive
party Pittsburgh has seen in a long, long time. Yeah, it was hot.
Yeah, it was crowded. Yeah, some of the people there that night
were incredibly rude. But can anyone really control the 'quality'
of people who come through the door? Sure, there could have been
more space, more water, better bathroom facilities, more clean
space to sit... hell, you name it... but hindsight is 20/20 and
if someone really didn't like being there that much, the door
to leave was always open. Considering the mess this party COULD
have been, I think it all ran pretty damned smoothly... and everyone
I was lucky enough to talk to and to meet Saturday night seemed
to be having one hell of a good time! Parties aren't always as
perfect as we all might like... but isn't that the fun of them?
And I'd much rather be at a crowded party than at an empty party
myself! This was a DAMNED NICE NIGHT in my book! BTW, although
ALL the music was great this night... RYAN MATTHEW'S SET KICKED
ARSE! (again!!!)
