Electric Daisy Carnival Part 1

Well finally I'm writing about this.
While it has been a week since this event pop off as a huge sucess here in Vegas. There is still tons of content hitting the internet from pictures to video. To just people thoughts and articles good and bad alike. EDC exploded and took over Las Vegas last week and I can't thank Auggie and JessFunk of Sound Factory Systems for letting me tag along and work for them that weekend. It was great to see all the guys again, only thing that would have made it better was if we were sessionin ourselves. Haha.
But here you go. Some night one treats. Out of the 450+ photos that I took I threw a shit ton out. Either the lights got ahold of them and were to bright or dark. Or I didn't focus up right as most of the time I was shooting in a manual focus state. Other times I just didn't want to take pictures or there were to many people on stage. Or I was off in the corner just dancing to my own groove..

But on to the pictures and me shuttin up....



One of the many setups put together!

Autoerotique




The crowd shots are basically a time lapse of the night as you can see the crowd really growing and diminishing there at the end. Some of the shots though really can't even translate the mass amounts of people there at certain points. And yes that is the sun coming up there at the end. What a night one, with all those huge names gracing the stage and personally hearing some again and some for the first time, just an amazing eargasm. Even though I had been up for some umting fuckin hours as I went to my real job during that day as well. It was some good rest that I got in the middle day on that Saturday. Tomorrow I should have night 2's ready. Not as many but more of a story to tell on that one.

Oh yeah and the top photo.. Self explanatory, that would be the gang.
EDC 2011 LV Dj Tech's.
Show did not go down with us puttin in work behind the scenes.

Weekend Trip to Nor Cal

Well honestly I can say that this will probably either be a four or three part series depending on how much that I break everything up. That and I believe that some of these things just are important enough that they deserve there own lime light. With so many emotions and going threw my mind at the moment I’m just going to put down as much as I can in this power hour I would consider this flight back to Vegas.

First off I really need to get better at carrying around my camera when I go on these things and just snapping pictures. But I guess I really don’t do it because I want them to be all professional and shit. But honestly it doesn’t even matter because no one really reads this. Like an open journal and shit. Funny thing is I took a look at my hit counter and I think March was my biggest hit month, which was like 15. LOL. Anyways lets get into this Weekend

Well it started on Thursday evening actually. Flew down into Long Beach and was greeted by my little little brother Kevin. We then headed back towards the house but needed to make a stop at Mens Wharehouse first to pick up his tux for prom.

Other then that I called it an early night as to finally hoping to sleep, which I’m doing horrible at doing as of late. Also to get ready to drive up to Nor Cal on Friday with the mother unit as well. But we weren’t leaving till about noonish so that gave me the morning to run some errands that I needed to do in the local area. Well lets just be honest here, when you don’t have a car. You don’t get around I finally got my little brother up at like 11:30ish and then we headed down to G-spot to take a look at the coche. Here I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

But we did do a couple things we finalized the color as well as all the work left to be done. So I’m super happy about all of that and I can’t wait. Two weeks and then she should be out. So well see, then time to hide her till I get new wheels as well.

And then it was off to Nor Cal with ma.



We hit some traffic along the way and it wouldn't have been a trip with my mom anywere without some Geocaching a little along the way. We finally got in around 9:30, and got some dinner with Nick and Missy before calling it night. Seeing how everyone knew Saturday was going to be a big day for sure.
Well it was the big day for the family and espeically Nick seeing how he as graduationg from Sac State. But of corse like any good fashion everyone was running late with getting the cake and blah blah blah. Funny thing is that Nick and i were just chillin at his house playing video games.. Until mom called and started screaming that we hadn't left yet. But we waited for Ben to arive and then we took off with him and Rachel. I would say more about the ceremony and what not but there was this family behind me with an anoying ass child. I wanted to say something but you know them there cultural difference or boundaries, so I said nothing but.. I did snap a couple pictures.
















After that we went to go eat as a giant bunch. Haven't had a family dinner or whatever you want to call it like that in a very long time. Thank god we got there when we did, because we basically took the place over. I mean we started with our indoor voices but after a while we just got louder and louder. It was good to finally hear some other stories about my father as well at that table. But really it was a celebration for my brother and celebrate we did. Because after dinner the youngsers of the group took off and went to the club. First off thanks Rachel for being the DD, but damn I had a blast, and need to do that that more often with my brother.

Sunday was more a relaxed day as we went to SF and walked around for a bit.
Good day ate some crab and bread. Geocahed a little and saw the strangest shit ever in a park. Had to be this weird play on evolution in the park. I mean I'm actually speechless about how to explain it. I mean they were on stilts and just all over the place, I mean the music was like someone just banging on the keyboard and other random instruments.
Overall it was a really good weekend highlighted by a great accomplishment by my brother.
