Dont you understand what i was trying to imply? It was so boring that i had to go into the drink and listen to something less boring. Doesnt mean i liked it.

There was some parts of the set that Zabiela added some nice bass. That got my head bopping for a bit

u always had the option of not showing up in the first place if u dont like JZ or leaving the club if u werent satisfied

First time at Guv in a while and I enjoyed myself. Danced a good 3-4 hrs to some interesting JZ

Go away (for good, please).


I had a great time that night. Mark T definitely summed it up quite well -- Mark Oliver was spinnin' some bangin' tracks -- got me pumped. Then JZ came on and for the next couple of hours he didn't disappoint one sec. The energy was immense. But after that when he started to get into more of the breaks, it did die down quite a bit -- But the end of his set picked up yet again. Great job James -- definitely the best set i've heard from you live

But yeah.. the DJ booth up there -- sooo disconnected from us 'peasants' down here -- next time you come you should be in the MIDDLE of the dancefloor

I didn't see many TA's either, but ran into LKD (damn bugger dragged me into Orange Room -- WHY?!?!? I hate it there ), saw Samhouse and Tully (nice to see you guys back-to-back: Mistress Barbara killed it the night before). And it was great to meet more TA's. Chanoa (Burlington, whassup!?!?!!!!), Ubertrancer, and MarkT.

Until the next time...

fucking loved the nite!

got into TO at 12..um big blur...danced really hard..the entire time...then it was 8

JZ is not my normal styles, but he was ripping it up, and there was nothing stopping my ass from shaking all over the guvy floor..can't wait for next time..u have me converted

maxQ, GQstyles...nice to meet some b-town boys..we definitely hafta hang out..pm plz
LKD...nice to see u actually having fun (for once)
musicsnob_not, markt..thanks for keeping the energy up
graham..i was soo glad to see u..made my night..u should do surprise visits more often..and bring the woman

alex (ubertrancer) fuck i've said it before..i'll say it again..u are my dancing partner..the second i see u on the floor, i just hafta move..its good to have someone till the bitter end, tearing it up with me..u rock

karim (sheena, john, pat{HAPPY BIRTHDAY}, nema, mike) thanks so much for everything..esp the hottubbing..next time ferry corsten..and check yer wallet!


now for the official hiatus...till WMC


-andrea-

the guv aka gino-/ asia- & sardine-/ sweat-/ sketch-/ town is such a turnoff!!

and ur right James, the booth way up there is the worst (especially for me, being nearsighted!! they should really be handing out binoculars at the entrance!! ) ... it's similar to boa where it's somewhere pushed off to the side. no feeling, no connection to the dj! what are they thinking?! the dj's like in some type of fortification or vault!

you should really look into getting booked for the KoolHaus where the booth can be set up near the middle of the dancefloor. god, when digweed was here last march it was absolutely PERFECT!!! he was basically surrounded by the crowd and the crowd could feel him and his nrg! okay, the sound may not be as sharp as in the guv but THAT'S WHERE THE EUPHORIA WAS!! i don't understand where it's disappeared to lately over the last year anyways.

sorry for not making it out james, but the guv...i just don't want to keep setting myself up for disappointing nites; there has not been one time where i've just been able to loose myself @ the guv. i've just given up on trying. it's such a waste. no matter how great of a musician or performer you are; i could not even get into sasha the last time he was here @ the guv, and that should say something!

have a great time in Montreal on Tues!!! and say hi to malek! he'll be taking pics with his new cam!

Cyrus King, shouldn't you be out jerking Tiesto off somewhere? I don't think the MD had a "I Love You Tiesto" thread in a while

Why the hell do you bother going to Guv on a prog night if you hate it so much? Did you actually go there expecting James to drop some hand-in-the-air Trance?

And to top it all off; genre-bashing has pretty much died off around here, yet you're still stuck in your grade-school mentality and continue to bash . Then again, I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering your musical tastes haven't evolved one bit, the same should go for yourself, right?

Originally posted by jameszabiela Thanks for coming everyone! One thing though... I'm not fond of DJ booths that put the DJ way up in the sky like they're some sort of God, I found it very hard to establish any connection with crowd being so far away. It felt like I was in a totally different room at some points... Next time I'll make sure I am on the stage again as I felt that was so much better. Appreciate the support as always! Toronto rules as ever.... JZ

Im so mad i couldnt make it out to this! i was at home watching the Formula 1 race instead

but just in honor of you, i threw on your EM from last year, to try and have my own party at home...it was good, but not the same, lol

He doesn't hate prog as much as you think Peter, afterall he WAS @ Guv and did say he liked a few of the tunes. As for genre bashing I did remember hearing you guys say how "generic" and "Monotonous" Marco V's set was when he was here @ Guv.
As for Zabiela's set, glad you guys had fun. He can drop some amazing stuff. I'm not always in the mood to hear that style but if I am it's wicked.

I said that it was too hard for my liking and it all sounded monotonous to me. And I've always had that opinoin about "hard" music. Thats why I never really liked techno or even to a lesser extend, hard trance.

anyways, forget it. screw this arguing. This is a review thread. If he wants to make an ass of himself then let him.

I had a wicked time last night! I was lookin all over for TAs and surprisingly I saw none.. Spent most of the night in the front, right around the stage. Mark O definately got the place pumped, I know i heard him drop a remix of Sander Kleinenberg - The Fruit a little before zabiela came on. Zabs spun basically an entire set of stuff I couldn't identify except the new remix of Aphex Twin - Windowlicker.. and what was that reggae track he ended with, anyone know? "say whoaaaaaaaaaa, say yeaaaaaaaaa" sounded very familiar.. all in all a really really wicked party!

old old old school reggae track. Cant remember what its called. But the stanton warriors played that remix when they were in town a few weeks ago.

CRAZY night!

Got there pretty early, me and my buddy Jay where got into the club around 10:30. MO started with a lil house, got me going for a bit, the place started get busy and by 12 oclock we were already having problems fiding decent spots to dance, its was a nice oppening set . JZ rocked (pretty much what i was expecting if not better), nice to hear JZ - robot phobia being drop in the beginning of his set, I really got to appreciate his set by the end (thx MarkT ) when it really got going. But for me, MO killed it when closing! Holy shit, those were some hard dirty pounding beats, blew my mind.

Once again, great meeting a few new faces (MarkT (thx for the chop, it did me well), Max Q, musicsnob_not...?) and partying with the familiar ones(Karim & crew, Graham and Andrea).
