It seems like the only thing that really matters that's being lost is the name recognition of Hulla... there might be a party just as good as Mardi Gras, but if no one's heard of it no one's gonna show up.

If you really care about what you think you're losing here, keep showing up so that you don't!

Hulla ending can either have a devestatingly big impact, or it can have no impact, and that's gonna be up to each and every one of us because WE'RE THE IMPACT that every Hulla has every time it touches down. Maybe I sound like I'm denying that this matters - I'm not trying to ignore it. I'm trying to have the positive attitude about it that we're going to have to have if we want to keep things going strong.

If you've never been to a Goodfellaz party, try to check out NYE (I know, if you're not from Toronto, that's kind of a big date to expect you out for...) 'cause I promise that night is gonna go really really nicely.
You just might like it. You just might really like it.

Wait, if you ARE from Toronto, you ought to be at BE2EO next weekend. Though probably you already will be.

I don't disagree that there are still promoters that can create parties and atmosphere of the hullas gone by. I am going to try my best to make it to BE2EO next week. But hullas have left a legacy on the whole scene. I just found this article, http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Rave_party , on what a rave is and if you read the whole thing you will understand my point.
In the meantime lets enjoy the remaining hullas in the spirit that they were created in and maybe some other promoters will create the same expression and music outlet for future generations.
