  10. whoo! allstars, poreotics, soreal cru, and kaba! :)

    I don't want to put people on blast, but please put out ropes for the line to enter the venue next year! We were literally 20 people behind, waited patiently for over 2 hours, next thing you know, a massive crowd jumps in front (around 50++) flooded the door... I think ropes would be beneficial to those that do wait in line ;p But I'm just suggesting. :) I heard lots of foreign profanity when people were cutting haha Please put ropes next year. :)

    P.S. the host was incredible. He was smiling and having fun the whole time. I never seen him feel/act tired during his hosting. Props to him :) He made it that much more enjoyable.

  15. When we dance no matter what rhymt we prefer, the activity always reflect our welfare . When we dance frequently we can notice a change not only in our mood too but believe it or not in the sexual performance. When some cases when the erectil dysfunction present like a problem, to buy viagra is a great alternative.
