What else do you expect from a city whom's skyline, lush clubs and other major realestate has been built up from the vast amounts of money made in the golden age of the cocaine trade that went through Miami from the 70's till late 80's?

Yeah…Miami was one of the weirdest places I've ever been in my life. Set was worth putting up with because Sasha looked like he was enjoying himself for the first time (seen him 3 or 4) and it showed in his mixing. I don't think I would have put up with that shit for anyone else.

They do have a good sound system at Mansion but the usual crowd is pretty lame.

yeah...

WMC basically is a complete different story down there. What happens is they let big promotional companies and organizations come in to throw parties in these clubs, so its out of the norm with what you see. I used to love when people would come to visit and be all upset when it was nothing like WMC because it was like October. South Beach is not WMC year round, like Xone said, WMC is the one exception to South Beach not being a total suck fest, and even then it becomes intolerable.
