Aw man, the turbo rave looked fantastic, but as I teach on Monday mornings it was a no go. Roll on the Easter holidays.

― jed_, Thursday, 11 March 2010 17:09 (sixteen years ago)
been lucky enough to see Twitch and Wilkes DJ in NYC several times but I always kinda had in the back of my mind that *one of these days* I'd try to see Optimo in Glasgow. didn't make it! bummer.
good luck on whatever you've got on deck stirmonster

Yeah it looks good. They're expert mixers based on How to Kill The DJ pt 2, Sleepwalk and Psyche Out.
― Davek (davek_00), Thursday, 25 March 2010 13:16 (sixteen years ago)

Really desperate to go to the final one on Sunday, but a lot of balls up in the air. Think I'd cry though.

OK the next thing to do is for someone to make a torrent out of these songs so that I can make the best itunes party playlist of all time.

I had a dream I went to the last one, 2 nights ago..
it was awesome if the one in my dream was anything to go by.
― my opinionation (Hamildan), Saturday, 24 April 2010 13:52 (sixteen years ago)
given up on the notion of going. i'm finally kind of okay with that.
― Gee, Officer (Gukbe), Saturday, 24 April 2010 18:07 (sixteen years ago)
what will be the final song at the final optimo??
― dmr, Sunday, 25 April 2010 00:06 (sixteen years ago)
I hope it would Optimo. Or Optimo followed by some teary ballad, or some kick out the jams rager.
― dan selzer, Sunday, 25 April 2010 00:39 (sixteen years ago)
Put on my recording of pi, leave.
