Day 0
I arrived at work late. Hours to 11. My head was buzzing
from the fatigue. A little after sitting in the office, I went
for the prizes. Arriving in the firm Pallada Service, took
their SB Live! 1024, Smart UPS 600, columns Jazz Hipster,
Courier 56k and the module memory, and then again went to the
office. In Peter decided had to go by car. No sooner said than
done. After another couple of hours, seized from the office
ready suitcase and beloved digital camera sony, we pack up and
leave. Reaching the last time home, we sat down on track,
"warned the chief of the St. Petersburg cracker Mete0 his
arrival, we left. Refueled at a gas station BP, purchase full
package of energy Red Devil, we went out our wonderful city in
the direction of Peter. Leningrad highway, unfortunately, was
entirely culled, apparently broke down all together at CC, we
decided. Encouraged by such activity, scene and non-scene guys,
we zabibikali blinked happily and headlights, expressing full
solidarity with these wonderful people, and vzhali pedal
gas to the floor. Green nestled among food and beverages from
behind, I went to the right of the driver, and speed trap
warning cute and somehow even too domesticated stuck on the
front of the car. Hours after 2 stsenerskaya activity around
slept on no, but the only graphic work for the next 5 0 miles
Green was a picture for the competition, which takes the
pride of place on diskette in his pocket. To play a little in
NFS 1-2-3-4-5, and ruined by the "merchants striped sticks"
we went to Peter almost without incident. Agree, almost
Whether you can take the adventure that we are just 5 almost
became participants, organizers, and even victims of traffic
accidents. After driving up to Peter on the calculated
distance, I got the phone. He immediately responded inscription
NW-GSM, and we realized that the city should be somewhere near.
Scoring with an arrow in Mete0 Finnish station we drove to the
northern capital. In an hour walks, I caught a taxi "to the
Finnish!" and then we played in an exciting game of "spying" -
the taxi driver was driving as he could, and the machine with
prizes, work, and Greene was trying not to break away from the
leader. In Finland we were in complete disappointment. Glancing
look all that should have been cited as the machines, I
bitterness in my heart to realize that Max no. As well as its
Wolksvagen Golf-a. Pulling nwgsm-a closer look, I dialed the
number Max. "Hey!" Where are you? " - I asked. "And where are
you?" - Responded to the tone he said. Then we both decided
that the negotiations reached an impasse, and got out of the
car. We have found 99-ki, a Met - from broken-Zhiguli
hell-knows-what-year-release. Meeting place.
Next, make a little impromptu race on
broken-down roads glorious city, and the frightening early
passers-by, we got to ... In general, until the same thing.
Until Met. Here day 0 smoothly into Day 1. [Dream]
Day 1
Ilya and Green went to explore the surrounding area by car.
We went with Max to give the car to his parents on the
cottage. [Dream]
Waking up, I found myself in the immediate vicinity of
maksovskoy problem. After sitting on the track, munitions and
cell laptop, we went to the party. Several graceful jumps
through the local ditch on the treasure - and here we are near
railway platform. Max - pretty hilarious. I am - fairly
dirty after gadskoy ditch, which he did not
warned. In general, no doubt, and pretty wet. But what
can stop the real heroes bf 96-97-99? Correctly.
Nothing. Include laptop mp3-shki pogolosistey we have to wait
train. Aborigines stared in amazement at our jukebox with
inscription Toshiba, from which came the sound of music Purple
Motiona, Enigma, and E-type ... Having bought a couple of
pieces of paper (tickets?) We boarded the train and went
straight to the party, having fun towards the inclusion of the
anthem of the Soviet Union in the train. The old woman
responded rather sluggishly, socks continued dry on the window,
and shoes - dry on the seat opposite. Even after some two
o'clock we were suffering at the right subway station in Peter
E. This paragraph is worth mentioning separately - Here we
describe some in St. Petersburg prices for a taxi. Upstairs, I
caught the car. Saying the destination and gleefully nodded at
the question of "close?" driver, we drove 10 kilometers road
for 30 rubles ... In Moscow, for this may painful hit, but here
nothing happened.
Arriving to the theater, we saw crowds of people with an
open consciousness, a surprisingly nice inside and terribly
untidy outside. Taking out a digital camera from the case I
made a few shots especially prominent faces. A few seconds later
party started for me when I was a happy and
enlightened persons prilezlo three people from the crowd, and so
is happily saying "prog, long time no see, as he and
etc., began to pat me on the back and provide other
courtesies.
Goodbye to them, I went inside. At the entrance I
stopped the minor pimple with the word "protection" on the
sleeve. Clicking on it to "figure" to heighten the effect, I
told him that before him - the sponsor, so he must roll away
immediately. A else - not to keep the sponsor's sleeve, poor
tone, you know. Max get out once in his own way, but it can be
guessed and advance - piterets Petrograders eye does not shut
down. Catching some Familiar face (bad), I hastened to get the
latest news. As it turned out, we missed a few minutes with a
horrible dress Militia, which had nearly broken up the whole
party. Yes, it was would be cool. Further said angrily that now
go spektrumistskie competition and non-Speccy will be tomorrow.
Original. Later a couple of minutes we found the hall.
From the hall came the eerie cacophony of AY-Stark,
perceived by the public from the audience to cheer. Under each
hissing Impact of Spectrum special device includes one of the
three light bulbs - R, G or B. It looked depressing.
After listening to another track, I realized that, in
general, not wasted twelve years ago changed spectrum at
Agat-9. In addition although the speaker was simpler. And of
course - anyone in the head never had the idea to make a pc
speaker compo ... What I this is leading? Moreover, that the
Spectrum - a little outdated. AND spektrumistskie party should
go in a break with normal. As, For example, FunTop. Such an
assembly for the initiated. A la Masonic. Or I do not know
where, BK-Mania what.
We should also give the room a few words.
The room, as you may have read in many other
"Sources" - an abandoned movie theater in about ten kilometers
away from the outermost station. In the room, as might be
guess is: space, cafe, shop, chairs (like "and here
not otodvinesh "), and - echoing wood floors. Cunning
wire hanging over our heads like lianas, at the same stage,
ape organizers apparently staging the event itself.
Coming out I saw the first of normal friends. Elite
Lang, St. Petersburg Frog, Moscow Malc. In general - there is
already felt something, special. Pati Style. Seeing
familiar oak forests (dubnyarov? dubninyan?) - in general
population Dubna, near Moscow, I honestly shook hands with all
those remembered. Looking at Random - the main organizer of this
party, around which ran some weirdo with a camera, I realized
I do not like it here.
Meanwhile, Max walked around, and seeming
reporter of the newspaper St. Petersburg Komsomolets took all
interviews on the topic of what goes around, and patiently
wrote stories in his little notebook. Later I
had a chance to look at these pages ... I do not know how the
Met is did such a serious mien in the face, but leaves the
"interview" were scribbled suggestions of my mother washed the
frame. " Next to Max tired of everything that happens and
sceners themselves, and then we went learn all about how they
relate to the free love.
People did not belong to her. So waiting and Manwe
Tangerine I went to the center - to celebrate their day
birth. I Met the Monster, and came to the Nevsky Prospekt
looking cafe "bramsel" (or something in tune). Pomuchavshis
half an hour we found it and joined in celebrating.
Poprazdnovav couple of hours we went into a prolonged
walk along Nevsky Prospect. [Holiday]
On the full machine we have come to the Met Green home. That
do - do not remember. Expanding a couple of sofas we have
disabled. A little later, having joined for a few minutes to
let Meteo home, we cut off again. [Dream]
Day 2
Waking up, with new forces, with new goals and
attitudes to life and well-being, I got dressed, went to wake
Max. In general, looking ahead, is to say that the day
deteriorated in 5 minutes. Checking your digital camera, I
discovered a complete absence of any of his presence. Awful.
Absolute nerealshina. In general, finding a lost camera
($ 1000 +) in ferklempted we again went to the party.
This time, security was much more serious. Shaven head
with my height again grabbed my arm and began to study my
hand (palmistry some) for the presence of the press. Tolley
mark of the beast, toli - inscriptions CC0000. Having found out
that I do not antichrist, but what print I do not even have it
easy began to demand money.
The situation is stalemate - did not want to give money, and
cameras that would click on it no longer existed. I was again
require sponsorship privilege. Then the first (and last) time
Random we were approached, learned what had happened, and
sending the protection of a long trip with an erotic slant
missed us. After selecting the room, I first discovered Lang,
Wind and Snouketa (first - not included). Greeted him with all
I got monitor screen. Went democompo.
The first question that came to mind - "what now
continued speccy compo "? As it turned out - no. Just
next spektrumisty pomuvilis on pc, and under the cheers
one ... odnoplemennikov and noise and hiss from the normal Hall
twisted elite torus (donut) of the points on the screen. Topics
time operator fled, but the screen went inscriptions lead
spektrumistov in blagoveyny excitement "Chunks, nochanki
and-igrek, familiarity, 128, andesite, Antares. "Antares is no
longer pour. Fortunately, this demo was only one. Farther
My nerves began to reel in something like three-shuriken
(Star was such a metal in the Japanese ninja), which
naitupeyshim alters its size to the beat of drum in the same
dumb unit. Oh well. After serving it, looking more
some normal (and not) work, we decided to choose
from the audience, but in this decent work ahead of us again
Lang - shouting "GAAAAVNO! He opened the door down and
ceremoniously retired from hall.
Well, well, the city, and we decided to follow his example.
Hang out an hour outside, we discussed the future of the party,
and conversation found out that its not there. The second day
left in the general feeling a little better ... If it were not
crowning speech leader for the job that "uh ... well, we
generally ugly, and party such as closed, because we have
missed over time "... In general, a little party had failed.
And, of course, is to note that everything that did not depend
on the organizers passed to cheer. All of your friends is very
nice chat on the street, all work reached a new level, lagging
"of bourgeois" less than 5 years in total - the scene is
growing.
Very nice look and what we learned very little
people - more and more "new men", for which they honor and
glory and eternal memory. We now return to the natural course
events. Next was a terrible fuss ukushavshiesya organizers and
other things, about which even the uninteresting story. All
has been reduced to what the organizers say that the voices of
today not count, and we in turn took the prizes, which
brought to be awarded. Although it is worth noting that the
money that we put into the prize pool party alone can still be
demand in the form of prizes from the organizers ... In
general, discussed all the disadvantages party on the spot, we
slowly moved from a nice City of St. Petersburg.
The only thing we regret is that because of travel
on this;%: pati we could not admire the beauty of
Petergoffa and the Amber Room, as well - proeb @ whether the
camera.
At the end of a brief report about our trip, I would
transmit "Hello" to those people or groups, without which the
party failed to completely, and become gray and undistinguished
event: Tangerine, Manwe, Frog, Fatcrazer, Proxium,
HellBender, Lunga, Stirlitz Spektrumistov crowd, crowd
PI-SI (Schnick).
Really very sorry that the sponsors had to take away
prizes. Here, I would have amounted to the party BF'97 - the
first Russian party, where the results and awards were at a
party.
