I've been there doing visuals everynight and this place has the BEST vibe, and Matt is going strong! we've all kinds of crazy nuts in there and a few regualrs that come every night. It's been a fuckn great event from day one. (especially with the soccer crowd on monday night...)

Rad. I'm gonna head down tomorrow for 1pm and take some photos me thinks.

Yeah he reached the current world record at 9pm last night, and then retired around midnight. Top work, I know there aint no way I could of lasted that long - basically 5 days awake, no drugs to help him along!

How much money was raised?

I wonder how he is feeling now

tappy · Post by **tappy** » Sat Jun 17, 2006 3:13 pm

not sure how much yet, should be counted by the end of the week. Matty's in good shape, went back to a hotel room shortly after retiring (completely scattered and confused - had no idea what was going on) had some tests done on him and slept. He actually got up for the after party around 4pm the next afternoon and was almost back to normal.

on behalf of all the crew, I just wanna thank everyone that participated, donced, worked, donated and made this such an amazing event. Stoked to have been a part of it.
