Last week I attended the infamous “Bal en Blanc” at Montreal’s Palais des Congrès accompanied by two hot mamas: Jizz and Fabulous Andy.
As part of the celebrations for Easter, the Montrealers (les Montréalais) love to stop by the Palais des Congrès and party all night long while dancing to some international DJs. This HUGE rave party is hosted annually and is always taking place at the Congress Center of Montreal which is rented for the occasion. Each year since 1994, the Bal en Blanc is highly anticipated and some 15,000 attendees purchase tickets ranging between 85$ and up to 150$ to enjoy this night of debauchery. The event features two rooms: the trance room and the main room. This year's edition featured famed Dutch DJ Tiësto, Above and Beyond, Freemasons, Uppercut, Armand van Helden, Yinon Yahel (from Israel) and Markus Schulz among others. It was insane!!!
I've been hearing about how big and crazy the Bal en Blanc is since I'm 18 years old and allowed to drink and go out but have never planned to attend it until this year. It all started when Terrine talked to our friends and me about her desire to buy tickets for it and we all agreed that it would be an awesome idea. Therefore, St-Lawrence, Fabulous Andy, Terrine, Jizz and I all bought tickets for it at a relatively cheap price (90$) back in december. We were all scheduled to meet there until St-Lawrence claimed he didn't wanna go anymore since he had exams during the next week (we all did) and Terrine didn't want to go because she didn't want to end up seeing her ex or other acquaintances from her University (Sherbrooke) as she had skipped her semester because of her depression. I could pretty much understand both of them and their reasons but I was nontheless pretty disappointed by their no-show.
Anyways, that being said, I still managed to have a hell of a good time! I want to reassure you by telling you I supprisingly didn't do any drugs (hurray) and kept myself awake by drinking Red Bull and other energy drinks and shit. I actually think I drank too much of'em because at one point, my heart was beating incredibly fast, I was feeling dizzy and weird and began to be paranoid and freaked because of all the odd-looking people around me. I then told Jizz and Fabulous Andy who both told me I might have had too many Red Bull and that there was a limit not to exceed and that I must have had exceeded it! I didn't take any more Red Bull afterward!!! We arrived there at around half past midnight and stayed until half past five! That's a lot! Fabulous Andy and I remained sober but Jizz popped a pill of speed. She was outstandingly energized and high and was about to dance and pop all night.
Just like the name implies, the Ball is actually intended to have all the attendees dressed in white and also have everybody all coked up by the end of the night! Reinforced by high degree of security and vigilance, we had to pass the security guards and be checked, all of this by taking off our shoes and being searched. It was pretty freaky to say the least, and I really felt like passing through security check at an airport. After I was dancing on the dancefloor and taking notice of all the craziness happening, I was more than happy to know there was plenty of security and resources on hand since I started thinking about how crazy stuff could happen such as a rape, a huge fight, stabbing or any other freaky shit! Lemme tell you that the people who had taken ecstacy weren't so ecstatic to watch; their eyes were popping out, they were cringin' their teeth, looked pale, were shaking and looked weirder than monsters in scary movies lol!
There were plenty of cute and edible brothas over there which included one hot jock from my Marketing class who was there shirtless and who was wearing nothing but pants and suspenders (yum) lol! I also saw another hot dude that I was eyeing up back at Cégep. Oh and as for Tiësto, we were extremely disappointed by his performance; his music was sucky and the room where he played was packed way too much and it was impossible to dance there and have fun. That's why we spent most of our night in the trance room dancing to Cosmic Gate and Sander van Doorn. Oh and I need to tell you there were some scantily clad hunks dancing on a lil' stage wearing nothing but g-strings and their ripped bodies who definitely had some enhancing packs increasing the size of their booties. It's so funny since it would have been obvious even for a blind person standing three kilometers away from them!!!
We left the "ball" at around 5:30 and went back to the South shore straight to have breakfast at a cheap resto. We were too tired to stay there until 8 am to hear Freemasons! Furthermore, I think the Bal en Blanc is a "must" for young shiznit living in the Montreal area and I'm definitely going back next year!!! Plus the flyers advertising it always feature horny photos of hot guys like Vincent Laroche lol!
