as some of you may know i do this thing called laptop battles, where its basically like a DJ battle but, you have a laptop and use that to do all your beats/sounds, etc, etc, etc,
so i make it to the nationals which is this thursday, im flying to seattle tomorrow, and i get this in my email
from Dallas TX just like me. only I left a long time ago cause aint nothin goin on down there except a bunch of money trading. over priced shitty drugs. you gonna get served in seattle. welcome to the big scary world. I dont mean to knock yer beats, they are good. but you need to see what there is out there, listen at a couple big festies to realize the sound. once you feel comfortable splitting a vile 3 or 4 ways youll be able to hang. See you soon...
SOOOO YEAH BUDDY COOL YEAH LET'S DO ACID THEN CAN I HANG BIG MUSIC DAWG?? THEN IM READY FOR THE BIG SCARY WORLD?

What it means and what he means is two different meanings, which, means you don't know what I/we mean.
Know what I mean?

i have no idea what conclusion i'm supposed to draw from reading it, i have no idea what 'command' or 'suggestion' is being made, it's sort of like a girfriend asking me a loaded question; it's not really a question, it's an attempt to maximize drama,...

I agree with him. He was basically saying you music lacks something. The acid thing is just a way of saying you need to experience festival/party atmospheres before you will truly hit your peak. A valid point.
Anyway I'm off to split a vile two ways with myself.

Dude, he is just calling you out. Don't worry about it. Go to the laptop battle. Have a good time. Learn from the more experienced people. Don't let him ruin it for you.
Keep in mind that there are going to be some furiously competitive people there. Personally, I don't think these battles were ever meant for more than a gathering of people with a certain technical skill. But what happens when you mix geeks with technology and ad a competition is you get a lot of people trying to show off how big their penises are, and then a few cool people who just want to meet other cool people.

tell your email-browser to put it in the junk/spam-section. it'll blend in with the rest of the penis-enlargement ads and free diplomas offers.
good luck with the nationals.

hes just being competitive like you people over there do, whenever i play online poker theres always some yanks saying stuff like that for no reason. and hes also saying you might be surprised how different it is playing outside of the little shed you normally do it in. and hes saying youre good.

If you'd really just dropped acid you would never ask where your record deal was.

Don't worry about it, he's just trying to get in your head or something, and trying to be "mentor-ish" at the same time.
By the way, are you going to be recording your perfomance? Other people's perfomances? It would be nice to get a listen to what happens in this competition. Even better if you could get video of some sets or something.
Sincerely, the best of luck.

But more importantly, how did it go? Did you win?

is a laptop battle like a cockfight? I can't imagine they do much damage to each other, unless maybe you throw one at the other, but then if you miss, you're just going to damage your laptop on the floow. No-one wants to do that.
