first of all, i just wanna wish all the regulars here on the m & m forum a happy new year!!!

now--i got a bit of a story for ya'll. i went to first avenue last night for their new year's eve party, and sumfin funny happened. check it out:

i was with a bunch of my friends who i had met up with for the night. at one point, i walked over to the v.i.p. lounge (i don't understand why it's called the v.i.p. lounge...anybody can go in, y'know) to see what the dj in there was spinnin. usually they're spinnin dance & house music in there, but last night they had a little mini-prince dance mix goin on in there. they were playin sheila e's "a love bizarre" when i stepped in. i was all like, "ohmigod, i gotta tell the others! they're playin prince stuff!!!" so i ran and told everyone else, we all went back to the lounge and danced our asses off for a few minutes. anyway, we were all in a little circle n'dancin around, mouthin the lyrix to the songs, shakin our tailfeathers n'all that...

there was this woman and her date dancin nearby us, and they both kept bumpin into some of us. the woman was obviously very, very drunk cuz she kept trippin over her own feet while dancin and her date kept pullin her back up at times. the dj was playin "d.m.s.r." at one point, and during the song she fell down on her back and hit her head on the floor. she went down pretty fuckin hard, cuz even with the music blarin you could still hear her head hittin the floor. my friend darin (endorphin74 here on the org) was like, "she's gonna be feelin that in the morning!" i bet she's feelin it right now, too...poor thing. a hangover and a huge goose egg on the back of her noggin, both courtesy of first avenue. eheh.

...thing of it is, it seems like every time i'm at a party and "d.m.s.r." gets played, there's always some girl on the dance floor who is totally not with it! i remember i was at another party and there was this chick who was dancin to the song like 5 times too fast! it's like, "slow the hell down, man! it ain't that fast of a song!!!"

"d.m.s.r."...i love it to bits, but that song and i make strange bedfellows for some reason. i wonder why...

From now on, everytime 'D.M.S.R' comes on...u should just run out the room to avoid people getting hurt/losing their sense of rhythm.

Glad u had a good time though.

that, or run to the dj booth and grab the mic and go, "if you ain't got no rhythm, please sit your ass down for the duration of this next song! don't hurt nobody tonight, do the sexxy people a favor!!!"

Dej - maybe she thought Prince was singing:

'All the white people smack your heads on the floor now...'

one, two, three--thump!

H.N.Y by the way

C'mon, tell the truth. You were the woman who fell. And you have a big goose egg. And you can't remember how you got home. And it wasn't D.M.S.R, it was La Vida Loca. And it wasn't endorphin74, it was Natasha. And it wasn't First Avenue, it was your neighbors garage...

Dance, Music, Slip, Reach (4 yo noggin!)

That poor, poor girl.
If there's one track to fall and smack your head on the floor to - it's gotta be D.M.S.R

On a side note - I was in a club one night and Gett Off was being played, and some guy pissed out of his face was up dancing and fell into the DJ booth, and make the cd start skipping.
Was too funny...unfortunately,...it...was...me

o...m...g...

was she the reason the ambulance was there?

bananacologne said:

How'd you know she was white? Oh, yeah... just cuz she couldn't dance, and she fell down, and... oops, nevermind.

By the way... I've layed on the floor at First Ave. before.

prrtybby said:

you were there last night, too? damn, if i knew what you looked like i coulda met ya. but i dunno why the ambulance showed up...it might've been her, i ain't sure. it was so strange, cuz i was upstairs by the bar nearby the window and talkin to a friend and all the sudden i turned around and saw the ambulance out front. i was like "what the hell?!"

what did you do that for? YUCK! no lay on floor at first ave.!

not the greatest feelin in the world, i imagine...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I was actually just driving past and was stuck at the light when the ambulance was trying to get through. I had to go to the saloon. Boy am I glad that won't happen again soon.

prrtybby said:

yeah, the floor gets pretty gross...folks were spillin their drinks on the stairs n'everything, i kept thinkin i was gonna step in some unmentionable goo and mess up my boots. but that's one of the reasons why i love first ave., it's so damned grody.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I never mix alcohol and dancing anymore. Threw those clothes out... that floor is a petri dish for nasty shit.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Believe me you would have seen me. I would have been the short jew-girl standing in the corner of the lounge NOT dancing. (Ijust sort of bounce) I have no rhythm and I know it. My girlfriend says I look broken when I try to dance.

squirrelgrease said:

ohhh man...i was down on the dance floor waitin for midnight to ring in, and for some reason i kept lookin down at the floor.

and another thing: last night was strange, there were the usual suburbanites there for sight-seeing or whatever, who were dressed up all super-nice (why the fuck would anybody wanna come to first ave. all decked out in shit from t.j. maxx or wherever?! ), plus i kept seein this woman who looked like she was somebody's mother. i was like, "what is this, Bring Your Parents to First Avenue Night?!"

squirrelgrease said:

Okay, first...what does one wear to First Avenue? Second, unfortunately, I'd probably be the gal looking like someone brought their mom to the party.

NYE at First Ave sounds pretty cool...

I hope you locals don't take it for granted...If I was there I would've been easy to spot - the wide-eyed boy taking pics all up in the joint

Maybe it's a Kramer / Mary Hart syndrome
