HELD IN A RENOVATED OPERA HOUSE ON BROADWAY IN DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES, FLAVERZ ENTERTAINMENT HAD AN AWESOME DJ LINE UP AND DJ BOUTS. WITH THE LIKES OF DJ REZA, PAUL E, 007, TRON, DELTA 9, WEDOE, TOM SLIK, AND MANY OTHERS THIS EVENT WAS DESTINED TO BE A ROCKING ONE.

THE MAIN SYSTEM BUMPED A HARD BASS EXCURSION THAT LITERALLY ROCKED THE MAIN DOORS AJAR A BIT. APPROACHING THE FRONT DOORS THIS COULD BE SEEN. UPON DOORS BEING OPENED FOR US, A SLIGHT CHEST POUNDING EXCURSION COULD BE FELT AND AS WE PROCEEDED TO WALK IN THAT SOFT BASS THUMP IN OUR EAR CANALS COULD BE HEARD. AS AUDIOPHILES OUR SELVES, THIS SOUND CAN BE APPRECIATED. THE MAIN ROOM BOASTED SPEAKER CABINETS ALL AROUND, DANCE BOXES, SPACIOUS CENTER, AND AN AWESOME LIGHT SHOW & FOG SYSTEM. THE MAGIC OF LIGHT SHOTS EXEMPLIFY THIS. THE HARDCORE ROOM CONTAINED A SIMPLE BUT EFFECTIVE SET UP THAT COMMANDED SPEAKER WORSHIP BY THE HARDCORE HEADS. UNFORTUNATELY THE 3 AREAS LISTED ON THE FLYER WERE NOT THE CASE FOR UNKNOWN REASONS.

PERHAPS THE MOST INTENSE DJ BOUT WAS BETWEEN DJ TRON & DJ DELTA 9 WHO ARE BOTH FROM CHICAGO IN THE HARDCORE ROOM. WITHIN THE PICS, IT CAN BE SEEN HOW THE SPEAKER WORSHIPPERS RESPONDED TO THE HARDCORE SOUNDS. IT WAS INTENSE HEAD BANGING RESULTING WITH SECURITY INTERVENING IN A PRE-EMPTIVE EFFORT TO KEEP THE CROWD FROM GOING OVERBOARD.

PLUR WAS ALIVE IN THIS EVENT FROM THE EVENT GOERS, AND SURPRISINGLY EVEN A VENDOR AND A FEW SECURITY HEADS DISPLAYED PLUR. IT WAS CERTAINLY SURPRISING. CONSIDERING THE POTENTIAL OF THIS EVENT, AN ENORMOUS CROWD DID NOT TURN OUT. THERE WAS A FAIRLY LARGE CROWD NONETHELESS, AND THIS CROWD THAT SHOWED UP WAS THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE RAVE CIRCUIT. THIS CROWD WAS PRACTICALLY 98% ACTIVE. THE ONLY PEOPLE WE SAW HANGING AROUND WERE EXHAUSTED PEOPLE FROM ALL THE ACTION. WE THANK THIS CROWD EXCLUSIVELY FOR BEING LIVELY! WE HOPE WE BRIGHTENED THE EVENINGS OF THOSE EVENT GOERS THAT RECEIVED OUR GOODIES. SPEAKING OF GOODIES, PLENTY OF SNACKS, WATER, RED BULL, AND THE LIKE WAS AVAILABLE. WATER WAS AT SLIGHTLY GOUGED PRICES. A .5 LITER BOTTLE OF WATER THAT TYPICALLY SELLS FOR $0.50 CENTS IN ANY STORE WAS GOING FOR $3.00. THIS IS USUALLY A VENUE ISSUE AND MANY TIMES OUT OF THE PRODUCER'S CONTROL. NONTHELESS, ITS A MEASURING STICK WE HAVE ADOPTED RECENTLY.

WE WISH TO THANK FLAVERZ ENTERTAINMENT FOR THIER WARM HOSPITALITY THEY EXTENDED DIRECTLY TO US AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO THIER FUTURE EVENTS.

SEE YA NEXT TIME.
