At the end of any GB party, things get pretty crazy. Well, crazier-er. We try to “leave it all on the floor” in a steady climax of awesomeness, expressed through the likes of Cascada, Eric Prydz, and Journey club remixes. After a few minutes of emotional recovery, we change back into work clothes and dive into the load-out.
A few hours later, dawn approaches and the venue has transformed back into whatever it was before we started that morning: a field house, art gallery, parking lot, Denny’s, this guy’s house, the offices of Jason Slomovitz, D.M.D.* — really anywhere — and the event is reduced to a flurry of memories and pictures. Finally, after a 20-hour, full-circle transformation, the crew heads home to catch some Zs.
But on Megaweekends, we’re just getting started.
After rocking Mass College of Pharmacy’s Greek Week “Heaven & Hell” party on Friday, we packed up at the Epicenter, and prepped the gear for Saturday night’s double header. One GB crew would head north for the University of New England’s Spring Formal, while another would head into Eagles territory for the legendary Middlemarch event at Boston College.
By Saturday night, GB was rocking two dance floors simultaneously, seperated by hundreds of miles, but united in the unbreakable spirit of GrooveBoston Badassity. [Cue Somewhere Out There from the Oscar-nominated, animated-mouse emotional powerhouse An American Tail]
Maybe it’s the pallate of energy drinks that our crew pounds relentlessly every weekend; maybe it’s the fact that mixing I’m On A Boat into a hot down-tempo set gets Ben giggling like a Japanese Anime character; or maybe it’s because we traded in neckties and cubicles for crazy, sweaty, fist-pumping dance floors…
Whatever the reason, we LIVE for weekends like this.
And from what we can tell, you do too. Rest up.
