from "VURBan Legends" (May 13, 1999):

Welcome to Funtazia Island 

There have been a few lineup changes for this weekend's Funtazia party over at Hanger 11 at the Muni. DJ Speedy from Las Vegas, who was originally only booked to play Saturday night, will join the Friday night lineup. He is joined by Delerious from Calgary, Kelowna's Endorphin and a special mystery guest coming in from Vancouver.

Saturday's lineup includes Speedy, DJ Unknown and DJ Sy from the United Kingdom, Regina's Dr. J, Calgary's Tryptomene, and Spaceboy from Kelowna. As well, a large stable of fine locally-grown talent will perform on both nights, including Dragon, Five Alive, Slacks, Spilt Milk, Ariel & Roel, Celcius, Tripswitch, Cziolek, Sync & Lady J, Phat Cat, MC Deadly and Crunchee.

And some dude named Slimboy.

A review of this party is available, courtesy of the Wayback Machine and the E-Town Rave Page.  From King Ron's Party Reviews: 

"Two words: kick ass.  

"This was one of the best parties I've been to at the Rev / Lush. I arrived just after 11 and caught only the tail end of Tryptomene's set, but he was playing some kick ass progressive acid trance. In scouting out the place, I discovered that the entire building was being utilized for the party which is a first I believe. The main room was set up in the fully open Rev with the usual standard club lighting and fairly decent sound system as before. The house room was in the usual main floor of Lush, and the ambient room or the "Aloha Lounge Chill Zone" was in the basement with Edmonton's CBC and Ariel & Roel spinning. 

"Ah yes, the kick ass chill room. When I first stepped in there, the ground felt weird and it looked like some sort of shag carpeting. Then I realized it was grass! There were patches of sod on the floor of the club making a lawn, and this was just kick ass to the tenth power! There were patio lights and umbrellas, paper tropical plants hanging and a tropical smart bar, and there was a faint smell of incense mixed with the sweet smell of grass! I could have just laid there all night, but the dancefloor beckoned me so back up I went. [...]

"About 600 people were present with a pretty good vibe in the air. It was a decent production with an out of this world ambient room and supreme music. In other words, this party kicked ass. And sure, it was worth $12."
