Damn i wish i was feeling well and gone to PVD !!!!! Grrrrr

I made excellent use of your ticket!

Anyone got a tracklist ? Did PVD Drop "Empire" or any of the tracks from his new CD ?

I love Swamper!!!! SEriously, he reminds me of this friend that I used to party with and that guy was really cool and a good dancer and that's what Swamper reminds me of.

Sorry to sound like a freak.

Ok, I'm just sitting here listening to some tunes that PvD played last night and I'm about to go ape shit in my room listening to 4 Strings - Into The Night thinking about when he played it lastnight! Lastnight was unfu*king believeable, just thought I'd re-state that! IMO, that beat out Tiesto & Ferry hands down!

.

what a night!

The best fun I had in a while!

I loved everything the set, the people and the atmosphere. It was a wiked pary. PVD did not exactly destroy the club. But this time around his set was much better than the one he did in Feb of this year.
PVD made me dance so hard, I wished he would stop! LOL!
I mean physically I was drained as well as emotionally, but I loved it.
He droped some really good tracks. The only complaint was that he would start a track and than would mix out to another track like only after 2-3 min. And I swear to God I heard him play Ramstein - Ich Will (PVD remix) and he would mix out of it like 3 times in his set.

I totally agree with Ruff Ryda, the best tune of the night was Marco V - Simulated, also Space Brothers - Everywhere I Go (No Vocal Mix)

As for PVD not being emotional from what I noticed is that he is not very emotional where ever he plays. As for the incident at mayday, i heard someone drugged drink of Westbam and PVD, and that's why you can hear them train wreck their sets like 2 -3 times.

All in all it was really nice seeing Tranner, RuffRyda, Evmac, Swamper, BoyTrance at the party. That also made my night. I was also pleased that PVD closed the night himself, and I love how he played for encore.

I am pretty sure he also played
Paul Van Dyk - Autumn
in his set.

Yup I'm still high!! I haven't really slept and when we got home, i went to work and class and everything. Then napped in the afternoon but now I'm dead. I want like all the tracks that PvD played. Man, I was so excited the whole night.

And by the way, I went to the front for a bit and Paul did smile a few times. He even let peeps like climb on the stage and take pictures. i would be pretty pissed after the whole We are Alive thing (when the idiot knocked the table, WHAT A LOSER). I bet that he got jumped after the show.

eh?!?

uhm...pvd drinks silly, just doesn't get sloppy drunk.

and how many times have you seen him? the two times I have seen him he gets into it...pretends to be playing the piano, smiles all around, doing a little "club step" as I like to call it, he doesn't just stand there.

How long did he play and what mood did he appear to be in? Also what was the setting, clubby or ravey or what...

check my review of ATL's event for the reason why i'm asking this

PVD........in Atlanta

Holy Sh*t........Paul Van Dyk is GOD!!!

This might be in the wrong discussion area...........but PVD is good everywhere. I guess he put 2 amazing sets 2 nights in a row

Last night......I just heard the most amazing liveset ever in my life.............When PVD spun, "For an Angel".........everyone is hype up even with the lights came on. I was feeling like was in a "trance" mode with music...........I enjoy every track of the set

I also notice that he does mix the same track 2-3 times in his set and I thought that was cool.


I spend half the night dancing and the other half chillin'.......(I usually just chill the whole night)......the music makes you get up and move with it

Anyone out there that have a chance to see him..........go and you will have the best time of your life

Paul Van Dyk will be my favorite DJ from now on!!

Okay here's my review of PVD. I thought it was a pretty good set, but not spectacular, I wish he woulda played somemore melodic/uplifting tunes but it was too hard for my liking. I shoulda gone sober to Tiesto and dosed at PVD dammit! Mixing wise the man's incredible, and he DID throw down a couple of amazing tunes. Best part of the night was For An Angel as a double encore, that was so unexpected! And the vibe of the place was kinda weird overall, except at the very end. Overall I think Tiesto was SOOOOO much better than PVD, and even the 40mins I caught of Ferry I was more into it than at PVD! I fuckin danced a storm though, my back is STILL killing me! lol. Shoutouts to KevinExcite, Malice, Trancearmada, Ruff Ryda (I'm pretty sure I met you right?) and Evmac. Glad everyone had a good time though, but the best party is yet to come... Armin. See you all there!

I agree that PVD's set was very different, but that's exactly why I liked it! I was kind of getting bored with a lot of trance lately! Maybe i am just writing this cause I am on crack, I will probably regret this tomorow! LOL! j/k

I thought PVD's set was pretty damn good. He doesn't look at the
crowd really when he spins but that's his style. If you
stand and look closely you notice that he is in a different world when
spinning. He's inside a trance bubble! Just him and the music!
He did some crowd interaction near the last hour of his set.
Anyways. the whole night turned out amazing. There is only
one word to describe it! - TUNE! I think that can be
aproved if you take a close look to the signature beside it

OMG.......

I've seen him spin 2 times, Innercity 2000 and Kremlin 2001 and in both sets he acted the same way as what you peeps are describing. I read somewhere that he is a very shy man, so I tae that as the reason of him just standing there.
The Kremlin set was a 5 hr set and somewhere around the middle you could see he was getting tired, because he was stretchnig the muscles of his arms and neck..I felt sorry for him
He did smile like 1 or 2 times but he never really dances and plays around..but maybe the music just brings him to a higher state of mind or smth?
Anywayz, I'm gonna see him again the 27th of October in the UK and on the 11th of November in The Hague....maybe I can get him to swing :d lol..i bet not

psssh you guys must not have been into it or something because he seemed happy as hell and enjoying everything when i saw him

This was my first time seeing PvD live....and I have to say he rocked the guvernment!!!!

I had the best time on Wednesday night, I had even more fun that Tiesto......I went to both parties and never got to meet any TAs which kinda sucks, maybe in AvB I'll get a ahcnace to meet u guys.....


and PvD..........#1
