GS.C Meetups and CompilationsOh shiat it's another Utah video!
Slacker extraordinaire Kael pulls together a year's worth of footage of the crazy gs.c Utahns and friends/lurkers.
First off - I love you guys. Seriously. <3
Second off - Stuffs Kael forgot:
Sorry nateleven and eternal sorrow, we didn't get ANY straight up footage of you guys at the meet (glaringly HUEG oversight on our part) next months let's do this again and rectify that. We also failed at getting party footage of Adam and Brandon, but I did with what I had.
Muchas gracias to Dier's girlie and Adam's roommates/friends - here's to my friend Dave/Katalyst and his girlfriend who I don't know where he is now - and to Old Man NYC who's too busy enjoying the married life to read this.
I owe MadRaverRai a drink for supplying the excellent Jonas Steur mix. You rock man.
I'm going to buy Cleric that jewish t-shirt for hosting. (I haven't forgotten)
Dave for keeping gs.c straight up kickin'
Third - Kael's statement:
Holy hell, it's been almost six years now. Six years.
I first talked with Abbie after I watched him "bite" Brandon's signature cartwheel while stringing at Luv2k. Not that we particularly care about biting, because we're always stealing each other's shit around here. Abbie told me he first got into stringing after seeing me string a few years ago at my first rave in Utah and was inspired to take glowsticking up. He now lives in CA and comes out to Utah periodically - he spins decks and glowsticks on the side.
That was inspiring to me to hear that, that years down the road we're all still doing what we love and inspiring the younger generation to do the same.
I look up to Adrillf, Dier, and Brandon - guys who over the years have progressed so much and impress me every time we hang out - not just because of glowstringing but because of how cool it is to hang out with them - how absolutely non-assholeish they are in representing gs.c.
Brandon doesn't even really post on gs.c, but he certainly lives by it's ideals. No battling, no competition, no bullshit, just brothers having fun with brothers and sisters while learning and teaching and having fun - the way it should be.
Dier wins my "most helpful gs.cer award" for hooking us up with tickets and paying for Brandon's parking and I appreciate him for putting up with Adam and I all these years.
And Adam, bro you're flaky as hell but we can always count on you to pull something together last minute. Grats. Your stringing is absolutely disgusting and we will finalize our airwrapness and "GLOWSTICKING THE MUSICAL" sometime.
A few names I must drag out as usual -
Sherman first introduced me to fire poi and allowed Becky and I to emergency crash at his place that first night, many thanks.
Myron and Wes, for putting up with this lame noob hoser the same way he now stuck it out with Adam and other lame noobs ;]
All the Chicago kids - wanted to get together one last time but it'll have to wait...
Norcal - I'll be seeing you this summer.
And to all the random glowstickers, hippies, ravers, dancers, and other peeps I've met on my journeys...
glowsticking.com - ONE LOVE! Spreading the love of the glow to all ages, all sexes, all races, all religions, and all peoples regardless of skill level<3 Kael
