damn these guys for taking pics of me!!!!!!
im never partying with you mofo's ever again!!!!
LOL
apparently i got kicked out of the club! YEAH!!!!!!
ok ...but seriously, good night. Review later!
It's Scott again.
Zabiela is definitely a DJ I couldn't keep my eyes off of. The effects he was doing was amazing but I felt they were distracting. Not much flow in his set despite how drunk I was trying to get.

I had a lot of fun, but like Scott said there's really no flow in the set so I wasn't really into it
Technical wise, Zabiela has done the craziest shit I've ever seen in my life. Scratching and Sampling with the CDJ-1000 WHILE the other hand is on the EFX-500. He could really make the crowd goes wild with all the effects and such
I left early cuz I was very tired but I had the feeling that Javi will get kicked out cuz he was so drunk
Great pics btw 
Great partying with the usuals again 
. Nice seeing Whitesmoke in the club, I'm waiting for u to post the pics

I'm going to have to disagree with Scottaculous and TranceLuver3evr for the first time here.
I thought his set was absolutely amazing. It wasn't just the typical DJ finding the queue point and cross-fading between vinyls that we've heard already over and over again for 2 hours. Zabiela showed his amazing technical skill through his insane scratching, his awesome sense of humor (which was apparent in most of his samples which i'll describe below), and his improv ability. If anyone here plays drums/percussion, you'd also appreciate how tight his stratches, loops, and samples were (like i did).
Overall, I loved some of the samples he used last night. The first track opened with a repeating robotic voice going "Base"..."Base"..."Base"..."Base"... I don't think many people there realized that it was the voice from the "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" flash animation. Second, he looped Christopher Walkin's best line from the Blue Oyster Cult skit off of Saturday Night Live. "I got a FEVAH, and the ONLY prescription is more cowbell!" Towards the end of the night he played Blur - Song 2. And the crowd went nuts, myself included. GOOD song! The original is only 2 mins long, i'm glad he made it a bit longer!
And i have to mention James Zabiela's shirt from last night. It was god damn hysterical. It read:
Hiroshima '45
Chernobyl '86
Windows '95
WOOHOO!!!!
the blur - song 2 track is a remix. blur - song 2 (ivan gough and grant smilie mix). and the cowbell track is dirty gringos - cowbell. but most likely [knowing him] he used the sample from that track over other tracks. glad to see someone enjoyed his set. 
From what I remember.......Great spinning.
He was tottally tearing it up.
I am truly a fan now. I think he's got to be one of the dj's that is going to change the scene.
He's technical skill is truly amazing.
ONly thing is....once again- i dont remember half of the set.
I was kicked out haha
I blame sofia though...i was already drunk as hell and she bought me a long island ice tea.....i dont even remember it tho...so whatever.
but yeah- that put me overboard.
oh vell!
c'est la vie, no?
i promise i wont pass out again! SERIOUSLY THIS TIME! lol 
workin on gettin pics up....
1and1 locked my website b/c i went over on my monthly bandwith...."You have exceeded your included monthly traffic of 5000 MB (5.00 GB).
As you have not provided your credit card details, your Website will be automatically locked. Associated services will be deactivated and your Website will no longer be available online."
thats cool since there was no traffic limit when i signed up....blah
Without a doubt he is the most technically advanced DJ in the scene at the moment. I think he find it hard in that everyone is expecting that of im and he doesnt get much time to craft a set outsde of the crazy stuff he does.
I really enjoyed his set though - i only left front center stage for water and didnt want it to end.
Those of you who didnt enjoy it remember this is not the usual style of music you hear - no one does what he can do and therefore who are we to judge how his set should sound. From what I could see the crowd was well into it - he got a larger cheer at the end than both Tiesto and Armin got Guys jumping all over the place and judging by the beautiful arses shaking of some of the girls in the VIP the set went off just as planned.
He really seemed to enjoy it too - the man is an example to us all of what can be done with the equipment we all own - just practice and we could do that - James Zabiela is the way forward. No matter what genre of music you listen to the guy will be one to follow in the way sound scan be manipulated by an individual DJ.
Don't be surprised if he is in the DJ Mag Top 5 in 2004!
he's so good you had to post it three times!
and zabiela was ranked #11 last year. so top 5 is NOT that big of a stretch. it's just that i don't see him getting more votes than tiesto, pvd, armin, or sasha and diggers just based on popularity. he definitely deserves it though.

Don't get me wrong, I had lots of fun and would see Zabiela again if he came back. 
Hey guys!! So sorry I missed this one! I had other oligations in Florida and got back Saturday evening and was exhausted!!
Any, pics are great, so glad everybody had a good time! LeeAnn, love the shirt! Was that a gift from Thom?
I was sad to hear today that Thom and Jenny were in town. I had no idea you guys were coming. So sorry we missed you guys. I hope you'll be coming down again soon!!
Btw, Zabiela looks pretty hot!!

let me just say- sometimes people fukup...and i did.
Im learning from my mistakes...
MORAL OF THE STORY: Long island ice teas= SAY NO
SECOND MORAL OF THE STORY: Dont pass out at Scotts
you know... to make those pics even funnnier, you should've taken pics of you actually writing on his face and laughing hysterically. seeing that definitely would have made the pics that much funnier!
